De qué habla
Una crítica a quienes leen el horóscopo cada día esperando que las estrellas les digan qué les depara la suerte. La canción defiende que el éxito depende de lo que hacemos y no de los astros, e invita a tirar los almanaques y a mantener los pies en la tierra.
Letra
Rushing for the papers every day
to find out what the stars have got to say
about the fortunes that are on the way
it's crazy, crazy.
Working, not waiting that forever will hold,
success comes from what we do,
not from what we're told.
And counting on lucky stars
is living on false hopes.
Don't let the planets take control of our lives,
believe in the truth and not celestial lies.
It's we, not the stars above
who write our horoscopes.
Virgos and Arians, Leos, Aquarians,
Pisces, Cancerians show:
No matter when we're born.
Libra or Capricorn,
Taureans and Scorpions know.
Nothing can change the way we've chosen to live
and no one can tell us when to take or to give.
It's we, not the stars above
who write our horoscopes.
Yet, in spite of this, when daylight dies
there we are, with eyes turned to the sky,
all anxious to be told a few more lies,
Still crazy, crazy.
Working, not waiting that forever will hold,
success comes from what we do,
not from what we're told.
And counting on lucky stars
is living on false hopes.
Don't let the planets take control of our lives,
believe in the truth and not celestial lies.
It's we, not the stars above
who write our horoscopes.
Throw away almanacs, signs of the Zodiac,
then there is sense to be found.
They are celestial, we are terrestrial,
Let's keep our feet on the ground.
Don't let the planets take control of our lives,
believe in the truth and not celestial lies.
It's we, not the stars above
who write our horoscopes.
It's we, not the stars above
who write our horoscopes.
