Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Those doll-like eyes are no good

For describing the world that lies behind you

I’ll have to arrive starched and stiff

Those hips that surrender to my gaze

Try to persuade me through the intoxicating shortcut

Watch out, I’m poorly advised

Even if they corner me like a loser

And there’s no path I can follow

I don’t fear fate because I’m in a hurry

...

Even if they corner me like a loser

And there’s no path I can follow

I don’t fear fate because I’m in a hurry

Even if they corner me like a loser

And there’s no path I can follow

I don’t fear fate because I’m in a hurry

...

Even if they corner me like a loser

And there’s no path I can follow

I don’t fear fate because I’m in a hurry

...

[Spanish]

Esos ojos de muñeco no sirven

Para describir el mundo que hay detrás de ti

Deberé llegar almidonada

Esas nalgas que a mis ojos se rinden

Buscan persuadirme entre el atajo embriagador

Ojo, que ando mal aconsejado

Aunque me acorralen como a un perdedor

Y no haya camino que pueda seguir

No temo al destino porque estoy apurado

Aunque me acorralen como a un perdedor

Y no haya camino que pueda seguir

No temo al destino porque estoy apurado

Aunque me acorralen como a un perdedor

Y no haya camino que pueda seguir

No temo al destino porque estoy apurado

Aunque me acorralen como a un perdedor

Y no haya camino que pueda seguir

No temo al destino porque estoy apurado
