Green Grow The Rushes by R.E.M.
Lyrics & Translation
English
The wheelbarrow's fallen, look at my hands
They've found some surplus cheaper hands
Rubbing palms and pick and choose
Who will they choose, here is the news
Look at that building, look at this man
Haloed and whitewashed
Gone to find a cheaper hand
He'll offer a pound, offer a pound
Green grow the rushes go, green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go, the compass points the workers home
Pay for your freedom
Or find another gate
Guilt by associate, the rushes wilted a long time ago
Guilty as you go
Stay off that highway, word is it's not so safe
The grasses that hide the greenback
The amber waves of gain again
The amber waves of grain
Green grow the rushes go, green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go, the compass points the workers home

Spanish translation of Green Grow The Rushes by R.E.M.
Green Grow The Rushes* (original R.E.M.)
The wheelbarrow's fallen, look at my hands
They've found some surplus cheaper hands
Rubbing palms and pick and choose
Who will they choose, here is the news
Look at that building, look at this man
Haloed and whitewashed
Gone to find a cheaper hand
He'll offer a pound, offer a pound
Green grow the rushes go, green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go, the compass points the workers home
Pay for your freedom
Or find another gate
Guilt by associate, the rushes wilted a long time ago
Guilty as you go
Stay off that highway, word is it's not so safe
The grasses that hide the greenback
The amber waves of gain again
The amber waves of grain
Green grow the rushes go, green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go, the compass points the workers home
Green Grow The Rushes (traducción LyricVerse Team)
La carretilla ha caído, mira mis manos
Han encontrado manos más baratas y excedentes
Frotando palmas y eligiendo
¿A quién elegirán? Aquí están las noticias
Mira ese edificio, mira a este hombre
Con halo y blanqueado
Se fue a buscar una mano más barata
Ofrecerá una libra, ofrecerá una libra
Verdes crecen los juncos, verdes crecen los juncos
Verdes crecen los juncos, la brújula señala el camino a casa de los trabajadores
Paga por tu libertad
O encuentra otra puerta
Culpable por asociación, los juncos se marchitaron hace mucho tiempo
Culpable a medida que avanzas
Mantente alejado de esa autopista, se dice que no es tan segura
Las hierbas que esconden el billete verde
Las olas ámbar de ganancia de nuevo
Las olas ámbar de grano
Verdes crecen los juncos, verdes crecen los juncos
Verdes crecen los juncos, la brújula señala el camino a casa de los trabajadores
