The lyrics of the song start with "Son hermosos ruidos que salen de las tiendas, atraviesan a la gente y les mueven los pies..." and then includes a call to Elvis in a mix of Spanish, English and French: "¡Elvis! sacúdete en tu cripta / We are sudamerican rockers / Nous sommes rockers sudaméricains / No nos acompleja revolver los estilos."
