Ganaron los malos Lyrics (English Translation) – El Cuarteto de Nos

[Verse 1]
Okay, the end has come
Of this perverse, never-ending game
And each side will say and lie
That their story is the only truth (Uh, uh, uh, uh)

[Verse 2]
It wasn’t a magical vision
No excuse or resignation
But this war to die
Wasn’t going to have a happy ending
In these murky matters

Intentions prevail
Of the one who carries the best weapons (Uh, uh, uh, uh)

[Pre-Chorus]
It’s hard to admit that the darkness won

[Chorus]
The bad guys won (Oh)
The bad guys won (Oh)
They shouted louder
They played dirtier
They were smarter
They cornered us
The bad guys won

[Verse 3]
And yes, this is how it is
A whole machine behind us to stun
Godfathers and patrons who never see each other
Who only buy the who say “amen” (Amen, amen)

[Verse 4]
It doesn’t matter which way it is
As long as it takes power
Only soldiers to add

With different goals
Fanatics and centered, dreamers and mercenaries
Without compassion being used (Uh, uh, uh, uh)

[Pre-Chorus]
The one who speaks loudly is not always right

[Chorus]
The bad guys won (Oh)
The bad guys won (Oh)
They shouted louder
They played dirtier
They were smarter
They cornered us
The bad guys won

[Bridge]
The good guys will come out, leaving their refuge
With their own patrons, to play dirtier
The good guys will come, recruiting soldiers
With other dreamers and the same mercenaries (The bad guys won)
The good guys will return, with heavier weapons
Shouting their frozen truths even louder (The bad guys won) (bad guys)
The objective doesn’t change, only the roles change
The same religion with different colored flags

[Chorus]
The bad guys won (Oh)
The bad guys won (Oh)
They shouted louder
They played dirtier
They were smarter
They cornered us
The bad guys won
