    The song is about a boy who gets in trouble after being seen by "the mama" with Julio down by the schoolyard. The mama tells the papa and an investigation begins. The papa wants to put the boy in the "house of detention" because "it was against the law" what the mama saw. In a couple days, the boy will be taken away but the radical priest helps get him released, and they make the news. The boy says goodbye to Rosie as he's leaving and doesn't know where he's going.
