Te estan buscando matador...!!!

Me dicen el matador, nací en barracas
si hablamos de matar mis palabras matan
no hace mucho tiempo que cayo el León Santillán
y ahora sé que en cualquier momento me la van a dar
donde estás matador?
ahh matador...ahh matador

Me dicen el matador me están buscando
en una fría pensión los estoy esperando
agazapado en lo más oscuro de mi habitación
fusil en mano, espero mi final
ahh Matador, ahh matador
la cana te busca matador
la cana te prende matador...

matador..!! matador..!!, donde estás matador?
no te vayas, matador..!! matador..!!,
oh yeah matador..!!, matador..!! matador..!!

Viento de libertad sangre combativa
en los bolsillos del pueblo la vieja herida
de pronto el día se me hace de noche
Murmullos, corridas aquel golpe en la puerta,
llegó la fuerza policial

ahh matador.. ahh matador..
mirá hermano en que terminaste
por pelear por un mundo mejor
Qué suenan, son balas, me alcanzan,
me atrapan, resiste, Víctor Jara no calla.

Matador..!!, matador..!! matador te están buscando
matador..!! matador..!! matador te están matando
oh yeah matador..!!, matador..!! .. valiente matador

Me dicen el matador de los cien barrios porteños
no tengo por qué tener miedo, mis palabras son balas
balas de paz, balas de justicia
soy la voz de los que hicieron callar sin razón
por el solo hecho de pensar distinto, ay Dios
Santa María de los Buenos Aires si todo estuviera mejor
Matador..!!, matador..!! si todo estuviera mejor
matador..!!, matador..!! a dónde vas matador?
matador..!! ohh yeah..
matador..!!, matador..!!

By pure luck, saw LFC at the House of Blues in Chicago way back in the late 90's.  Super fun show and a hardcore following.

Thank God for Radio Paradise, the radio where you can hear anything good from anywhere. And Matador is a classic from Latin America. Period.

First notes, I was wondering why I knew this song so well, and then remembered that it's also on the "Grosse Pointe Blank" soundtrack. Perfect for a mid-week lull.

AMAZING! I was lying in bed with a terrible headache but couldn't stop myself of doing this, 11... The song pays homage to one of the Latin American singers that fought the hardship of dictatorships with his song. He was murdered by Pinochet's mercenaries, though. One of the lines of the song says: "resiste Victor Jara", for those interested in knowing more, you can google it. Impresionante che... Vivan los Fabulosos!
