Lyrics

Español

Se dice de mí... se dice de mí... se dice de mí... Se dice que soy fiera, que camino a lo malevo, que soy chueca y que me muevo con un aire compadrón, que parezco Leguisamo, mi nariz es puntiaguda, la figura no me ayuda y mi boca es un buzón. Si charlo con Luis, con Pedro o con Juan, hablando de mí los hombres están. Critican si ya, la línea perdí, se fijan si voy, si vengo o si fui. Se dicen muchas cosas, mas si el bulto no interesa, ¿por qué pierden la cabeza ocupándose de mí? Yo sé que muchos me desprecian comprar quieren y suspiran y se mueren cuando piensan en mi amor. Y más de uno se derrite si suspiro y se quedan, si los miro, resoplando como un Ford. Si fea soy, pongámosle, que de eso aun no me enteré. En el amor yo solo sé que a más de un gil, dejé a pie. Podrán decir, podrán hablar, y murmurar y rebuznar, mas la fealdad que dios me dio mucha mujer me la envidió. Y no dirán que me engrupí porque modesta siempre fui… ¡Yo soy así! Y ocultan de mí… ocultan que yo tengo unos ojos soñadores, además otros primores que producen sensación. Si soy fiera sé que, en cambio, tengo un cutis de muñeca, los que dicen que soy chueca no me han visto en camisón. Los hombres de mí critican la voz, el modo de andar, la pinta, la tos. Critican si ya la línea perdí, se fijan si voy, si vengo, o si fui. Se dicen muchas cosas, mas si el bulto no interesa, ¿por qué pierden la cabeza ocupándose de mí?

It is said of me... it is said of me... it is said of me... It is said that I am fierce, that I walk like a bad boy, that I'm crooked and that I move around with an air of compadron, that I look like Leguisamo, my nose is pointed, my figure doesn't help me and my mouth is a mailbox. If I chat with Luis, with Peter or John, talking about me men are. They criticize if already, I've lost the line, they look to see if I'm coming, if I come or if I went. Many things are said, but if the bulk is of no interest, why do they lose their heads taking care of me? I know that many despise me buy want and they sigh and die when they think of my love. And more than one melts if I sigh and they stay, if I look at them snorting like a Ford. If I am ugly, let's put it on, I haven't found that out yet. In love I only know that I've left more than one fool on foot. They can say, they can talk, and murmur and bray, but the ugliness that God gave me many a woman envied me. And they won't say that I've grown up because I was always modest... I am like that! And they hide from me... they hide that I have dreamy eyes, plus other primors that produce sensation. If I am fierce I know that, on the other hand, I have the complexion of a doll, those who say I'm crooked have not seen me in my nightgown. The men of me criticize my voice, the way I walk, the way I look, my cough. They criticize if I already the line I lost, they check if I'm coming, if I come, or if I went. Many things are said, but if the bulk is of no interest, why do they lose their heads taking care of me?
