Well, I am 21 years old
I'm still not going to parties
And I don¿t drink ¿ not even beer

Well I still the same kid that I was
Maybe now I am taller
Maybe now I am smarter

Well, I have to say
I don¿t see differences between you and me
I think we are barely the same
We are one

How suttle a Friday night can be
So quiet...
So silent

Well, I am 21 years old
I don¿t how to dance like the other girls do
But I think it¿s okay
But I think that¿s nice
But I think I¿m alright

Well sometimes I think
What is happening in our heads
Why we're standing here
Talking about people we don¿t even know
Why they don¿t smile?
It¿s so simple
It¿s really, really simple

Do you remember when you were a kid?
It¿s the same thing

One day I was in a house
Full of artists of the town
And everybody was declaiming poems
And they used a lot of words
Telling about black people, White people
Rich people, poor people
But hey, why?
I think everybody is the same

I can¿t understand why we have so many names
I can¿t understand why we use so many names
