In these days of Carnival, the soccer players from Lanús squeeze the knob because they are leading the way, Leandro González Pirez disguises himself as a hero to score River’s winning goal against Tigre, and Justice takes off its mask and lifts the closure of the third South tray of the Bombonera.
And in the various parades in Buenos Aires, the funniest troupes gather to pour out their joy and creativity. In Peligro de Wolf, the king is football all year round, but on Carnival days, we become monarchists and begin to worship King Momo. Next, the most ingenious neighborhood murgas:
The “vintage” of North Flores
We are the “retro” comparsa,
the one who was going to dance with Travolta.
We used to go to the Pumper
and to the exit to Ital Park.
We all wear oxfords
shirt and also inflated jacket
We listen to Palito and Sandro,
we are in the ointment.
We want Casa Tía back
La Bidú Cola, Segba and ENTEL.
We don’t give a damn about the Corsican,
our joy is the “Volver” channel
The resentful of Parque Chacabuco
We don’t have good suits,
the sequins don’t shine at all.
We are all bitter
our float is a shit.
We don’t know how to rhyme
our little songs are not funny.
We never win prizes
that makes us more annoying.
The Nordelta milipilis
This murga was formed
on a beach in José Ignacio.
we got caught doing something
as well as going to the gym.
If you want to fill your life
don’t hesitate, get excited.
Doing murga is the most “trendy”,
after doing pilates
The couch potatoes of Villa Urquiza
We are a cholula murga
who loves TV and carnival.
It kills us to have a poster
autographed by the Legrand.
We are fans of Tinelli,
Francella and Moria Casan,
our idol is Susana,
Our King Momo is Adrián Suar.
The erectile dysfunctionals of Barrio Norte
Viagra pills
we are renowned fans.
Hope is not green
but bluish color.
Those committed to the environment of Parque Chas
This murga in carnival
does not throw shredded paper.
Since he is an ecologist:
only recycled paper.
The fashion of Palermo soho
We created this comparsa
in a bar in Las Cañitas,
we think it is very fat
that of throwing bombs.
We are a cool murga,
that stops on Honduras street,
eat sushi in a bistro
It is our greatest folly.
