Sabia savia por mi cuerpo
Como oro de Acapulco
Estoy preparándome
No se que me pasa
Que ya no puedo volver
(Al oír, al oír) 

Tanto irme por las ramas
Ahora recorro las heridas

Una vez por semana
Y ya no puedo volver
Al oír, al oír

Necesito hoy tener amarrados los pies

En el aire se que soy
Nada mas que menos de lo que podría ser

Me resisto a empujarte
A otro juego de azar en el aire
Reverbera el ansia de mi voz

Mi voz vegetal vegetal
Amor vegetal
