Lyrics

You'll be, hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm, magnet for money
You'll be, mm-mm-mm-mm, magnet for love
You'll feel, hmm, light in your body
Now I'm gonna say, gonna say these words:

Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo
Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo

It might hmm-mmm-mm-mm...it might rain money
It might hm-hi-hi-hi...it might rain fire
Now I'm gonna call
Gonna call on legba
Get yourself a sign
Get your love and desire

Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo
Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempou
Papa legba
Come and open the gate
Papa legba
To the city of camps
Now, we're your children
Come and ride your horse
In the night
In the night
Come and ride your horse

There is a queen
Of six sevens and nines
Dust in your garden
Poison in your mind
There is a king
That will steal your soul
Din't let him catch you
Don't let him get control

Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo
Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo

Papa legba
Come and open the gate
Papa legba
To the city of camps
Now, we're your children
Come and ride your horse

In the night
In the night, come and ride your horse
In the night
In the night, come and ride your horse
In the night
In the night, come and ride your horse
