[English]

Tell me now

You need to rest

Now tell me now

Waiting is too much

Because it's going to happen

The summer of love

I know it's going to happen

The sexual revolution

And you've known for days that no

That sometimes you don't have to be right

...

Well, are you ready to go?

You, who decided that your life wasn't worth it

You, who chose to always feel bad

You, who anticipated a catastrophic future

Today you predict the sexual revolution

You, who decided that your love was no longer useful

You, who preferred to put makeup on your identity

Today you prepare for the most fantastic blow

Because today the sexual revolution begins

Leave it now

Don't try to mislead

Now leave it now

Who are you trying to fool?

Because it's going to happen

The summer of love

I know it's going to happen

The sexual revolution

And you've known for days that no

That sometimes you don't have to be in control

Well, are you ready to go?

You, who decided that your life wasn't worth it

You, who chose to always feel bad

You, who anticipated a catastrophic future

Today you predict the sexual revolution

You, who decided that your love was no longer useful

You, who preferred to put makeup on your identity

Today you prepare for the most fantastic blow

Because today the sexual revolution begins

...

Well, are you ready to go?

You, who decided that your life wasn't worth it

You, who chose to always feel bad

You, who anticipated a catastrophic future

Today you predict the sexual revolution

You, who decided that your love was no longer useful

You, who preferred to put makeup on your identity

Today you prepare for the most fantastic blow

Because today the sexual revolution begins

You!

...

Today the sexual revolution begins

...

Today the revolution begins

...

[Spanish]

Dímelo ya

Necesitas descansar

Ahora dímelo ya

Esperar está de más

Porque va a suceder

El verano del amor

Sé que va a suceder

La revolución sexual

Y hace días que sabes que no

Que a veces no hay que tener la razón

Well, are you ready to go?

Tú que decidiste que tu vida no valía

Que te inclinaste por sentirte siempre mal

Que anticipabas un futuro catastrófico

Hoy pronosticas la revolución sexual

Tú que decidiste que tu amor ya no servía

Que preferiste maquillar tu identidad

Hoy te preparas para el golpe más fantástico

Porque hoy empieza la revolución sexual

Déjalo ya

No pretendas despistar

Ahora déjalo ya

¿A quién quieres engañar?

Porque va a suceder

El verano del amor

Sé que va a suceder

La revolución sexual

Y hace días que sabes que no

Que a veces no hay que tener el control

Well, are you ready to go?

Tú que decidiste que tu vida no valía

Que te inclinaste por sentirte siempre mal

Que anticipabas un futuro catastrófico

Hoy pronosticas la revolución sexual

Tú que decidiste que tu amor ya no servía

Que preferiste maquillar tu identidad

Hoy te preparas para el golpe más fantástico

Porque hoy empieza la revolución sexual

Well, are you ready to go?

Tú que decidiste que tu vida no valía

Que te inclinaste por sentirte siempre mal

Que anticipabas un futuro catastrófico

Hoy pronosticas la revolución sexual

Tú que decidiste que tu amor ya no servía

Que preferiste maquillar tu identidad

Hoy te preparas para el golpe más fantástico

Porque hoy empieza la revolución sexual

¡Tú!

Hoy empieza la revolución sexual

Hoy empieza la revolución
