Canción de Alicia en el país
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Canción de Alicia en el país" is a protest song by Charly García, recorded by the Argentine rock group Serú Girán and included on the album Bicicleta in 1980.[1]
The song refers to the last military dictatorship in Argentina, originally composed for a film, then reformed with the intention of reflecting the reality experienced in the 1970s. The author tried to prevent his song from being censored by the government by drawing metaphors with the novel Alice in Wonderland (1865) by Lewis Carroll.[2] The song reached number one in a number of Latin American countries, including Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Uruguay.
