Me encierran cinco dias			The lock me for five days
Solo por gritarle			And all this for shouting
A un sucio paco razo			At a filty racist cop

Un libro de mentira			A book of lies
Me obligaron a firmar			They force me to sign
Y robaron mi dinero			And they steal my money

Comment:

   During the military regime in Chile a law was passed which allowed the
   police to detain _anyone_ who seemed suspicious. This meant that you
   could get picked up at any time of the day for just breathing - if the
   officer stated that your breathing seemed suspicious of course...
