CANGURO Lyrics in English Wos

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song CANGURO by Wos from Spanish to English.
Today, I'm not going out
And I'm gonna stay in the clouds where nobody climbs
Don't come bugging
They say that everything's wrong, well
I'm more than fine here
And I don't even plan to look at you, blind
Let's go
Suppress the sh*t that you keep stuck in your chest
Swallow it and shut up until you're wrecked
Always stand straight
Silence him, sedate him
Let him do whatever he wants, but get him out
Silence him, sedate him
Let him do whatever he wants, but get him out
Listen to me
Or don't you see that I'm the king
Listen to me, because I'm the law
Give me my blisters, my Parisiennes
Kangaroo kick, heavy hit
We're not gonna stop with this, bro, I swear to you
I brought cyanide to slip into their drink
Five minutes here and we're already causing havoc
A magician wants to make us disappear
But this weird plague never stops growing
We're some of the few crazies who go around chasing pleasure
And even if they want to see us broken, we won't give in
He keeps coughing, working twelve hours
He earns two coins a month to support four people
And don't talk about meritocracy, it cracks me up, don't f*ck with me
Because without opportunities that sh*t doesn't work
And no, we don't need people to work more
We need to be able to live in peace with less
Step on the gas, don't get lost, remember where you are
Always check which side of the fuse you're on
He says, 'What up?'
This hits like coke
People dance crazy
Their necks dislocate
The drug on the fingertips
Let it go from mouth to mouth
You feel how it slams into you
That stuff cranked the pitch up
I jump like a flea, the purge began
I drop everything fresh like PXXR GVNG
Once again thirsty amid fevers and migraines
I dream again of an old man in the middle of a mountain
He looked at me and said: Nobody escapes life
And that youth thing is only an attitude of the soul
What a strange virtue, now my guts are burning
My best conversation I had yesterday with a spider
I don't know what time it is, nor do I care
Here it's always 4:20
And we're out of our heads, simple as that
Cheap bad beer in a can
Plus that holy plant
The one that calms the body and de-stresses you
The hood is partying, your ass tightens
I get that it bugs you, empathy is hard for you
And if now we scream and sing in protest mode
It's because we asked nicely and nobody gave us an answer
They think they're owners
Get out of the way, I'm serious
Out with the cops who bust into the hood
They shoot the kids and kill their dreams
Alright, game on
From the underground, from the hole
We're stirring it up again
Throwing those vultures out, bro
Don't come bugging
They say that everything's wrong, well
I'm more than fine here
And I don't even plan to look at you, blind
Let's go
Suppress the sh*t that you keep stuck in your chest
Swallow it and shut up until you're wrecked
Always stand straight
Silence him, sedate him
Let him do whatever he wants, but get him out
Silence him, sedate him
Let him do whatever he wants, but get him out
Listen to me
Or don't you see that I'm the king
Listen to me, because I'm the law
Give me my blisters, my Parisiennes

SONG MEANING

CANGURO is Wos’s lyrical roundhouse kick aimed straight at Argentina’s social and political frustrations. Bouncing with restless energy (just like a kangaroo), he rails against inequality, exploitative work, police brutality, and empty talk about meritocracy. Through rapid-fire verses, Wos paints a picture of everyday people who labor long hours for pennies while the powers-that-be silence any dissent. The repeated commands to “Cállenlo, sédenlo” (Shut him up, sedate him) mimic how authorities try to muzzle rebellious voices, yet the beat surges forward, proving that protest is impossible to suppress.

Amid the anger, the song celebrates collective resistance and street culture: cheap beer, shared joints, and late-night cyphers become small acts of freedom that keep spirits high. Wos invites listeners to check “de qué lado de la mecha te encontrás” — on which side of the fuse you stand — turning the track into both a party anthem and a call to action. CANGURO reminds us that even when the system says, “Swallow your rage,” the crowd can still jump, shout, and fight back together.
