Boy Band - Manel

Estic en una Boy Band

Estic en una Boy Band

Treballo en una Boy Band

Estic en una Boy Band

Em llevaven melodies

Que creuaven les parets

Donya Elvira omplint la finca

De sarsueles i cuplets

Van comprar-me una espanyola

Un diumenge als Encants

Vaig aprendre a tocar Give A

Little Bit, de Supertramp

I ara estic en una Boy Band

Estic en una Boy Band

Treballo en una Boy Band

Estic en una Boy Band

L'Àlex em va dur a La Boîte

Al concert d’un cantautor

Vaig pensar: seré com ell (no!)

Vaig pensar: seré millor

Un xaval de la placeta

Feia boogie amb el cosí

Li vaig dir «he sentit que toques

Crec que un dia he de venir»

I el micròfon transformant-me

Veu en electricitat

Va tapar-me una mancança

Un buit, una vanitat

I ara estic en una Boy Band

Estic en una Boy Band

Treballo en una Boy Band

Estic en una Boy Band

Ara escric a biblioteques

Plenes d’estudiants i vells

Però em distreu un grup del Whatsapp

O el misteri d’un clatell

Ara vago per les places

Busco un adjectiu alat

Però em despisten les terrasses

O llum, tènue, en un terrat

Estic en una Boy Band

Estic en una Boy Band

Treballo en una Boy Band

Estic en una Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band

I work in a Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band

They brought me melodies

They were crossing the walls

Doña Elvira filling the estate

Of zarzuelas and couplets

They bought me a Spanish one

A Sunday at the Encants

I learned to play Give A

Little Bit, by Supertramp

And now I’m in a Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band

I work in a Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band

Alex took me to La Boîte

At a singer-songwriter's concert

I thought, I'll be like him (no!)

I thought, I'll be better

A lad from the square

He was boogying with his cousin

I said, "I heard you play

I think I have to come one day »

And the microphone transforming me

Voice in electricity

It covered up a gap for me

A void, a vanity

And now I’m in a Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band

I work in a Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band

Now I write in libraries

Full of students and seniors

But I'm distracted by a Whatsapp group

Or the mystery of a neck

Now I wander the squares

I'm looking for a winged adjective

But I am confused by the terraces

Or light, dim, on a roof

I'm in a Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band

I work in a Boy Band

I'm in a Boy Band
