I stood at the kerb trying not to disturb The dark carnival crew and a glittering voice Far off there said, "Rejoice" "As the casualties are but few" Going to tell you now Before I forget myself I could let you loose But the key won't undo the lock And the face of the clock Seemed to merrily mock These five minutes with you Mi padre sabía Y me lo susurro Vete a Montevideo y espérame ahí Por dónde empezar? Escuchando siempre están Por cinco minutos o mas Si te atreves La sirenas lamentan La plaga que encuentran Las balas caen Y te harán desaparecer El faro oscurece hay poca esperanza Cinco minutos con vos
