[English]

The requested number doesn't exist

Just like you

...

Join your hands and ask me to come back

A prayer I don't plan to answer

My life changed when I finally could let you go

Losing you was enough to find myself

You can't come in here, you're not invited

You’re no longer welcome in my house, you were a mistake

I regained my freedom and hope

You’ll be left in loneliness, a little kiss for you

He’s still following me with the taxi

Taking paparazzi-style photos

I don’t want to have you close to me anymore

Never call me again, I’m not into you

I’m going to put a stop (stop!) to you

Stop trying to get my attention

What you have is called obsession

That's how it is

You have a crazy fixation

What you did didn’t come from the heart

The wounds you left in me

I couldn’t heal them, but I’ve learned now

That pain is temporary

I don’t want bad people like you

You’ll be left in loneliness

With a fool, never again

He’s still following me with the taxi

Taking paparazzi-style photos

I don’t want to have you close to me anymore

Never call me again, I’m not into you

I’m going to put a stop (stop!) to you

Stop trying to call my attention

What you have is called obsession

That’s how it is

You deceive people

Your pathetic act of innocence

I can see you’re not transparent

Your disguise became obvious to me

I’m going to put a stop (stop!) to you

...

Baby (don’t call me)

Don’t call me anymore

Don’t insist (don’t insist)

I don’t want anything more with you

Are you crying? (Don’t cry for me)

You’re bothering me

(Obsession) bye

He’s still following me with the taxi

Taking paparazzi-style photos

I don’t want to have you close to me anymore

Never call me again, I’m not into you (I’m done)

I’m going to put a stop (stop!) to you

Stop trying to get my attention

What you have is called obsession

That’s how it is

You deceive people

Your pathetic act of innocence

I can see you’re not transparent

Your disguise became obvious to me

I’m going to put a stop (stop!) to you

Stop trying to call my attention

What you have is called obsession

That’s how it is

...

[Spanish]

El número solicitado no existe

Como vos

Junta las manos y me pide regresar

Una plegaria que no pienso contestar

Cambió mi vida cuando al fin pude dejarte

Bastó perderte para poder encontrarme

Aquí no pasas, no tienes invitación

Mi casa no la pisas más, fuiste un error

Recuperé la libertad y la ilusión

Quedarás en soledad, un besito para vos

Me sigue con el taxi

Toma foto a lo paparazzi

Ya no quiero tenerte cerca de mí

No me llames nunca más, que no estoy para ti

Voy a ponerte un stop (stop!)

Ya no quieras llamar mi atención

Lo que tienes se llama obsesión

Es así

Tienes una loca fijación

Lo que hiciste no viene del corazón

Las heridas que dejaste en mí

No pude curarlas, pero ahora aprendí

Que el dolor es pasajero

Malos como tú no quiero

Quedarás en soledad

Con un gil, ya nunca más

Me sigue con el taxi

Toma foto a lo paparazzi

Ya no quiero tenerte cerca de mí

No me llames nunca más, que no estoy para ti

Voy a ponerte un stop (stop!)

Ya no quieras llamar mi atención

Lo que tienes se llama obsesión

Es así

Engañas a la gente

Tu patético rol de inocente

Puedo ver que no eres transparente

Tu disfraz se me hizo evidente

Voy a ponerte un stop (stop!)

Nene (no me llames)

No me llames más

No me insistas (no me insistas)

Ya no quiero nada con vos

¿Llorás? (No me llores)

Me estás jodiendo

(Obsesión) bye

Me sigue con el taxi

Toma foto a lo paparazzi

Ya no quiero tenerte cerca de mí

No me llames nunca más, que no estoy para ti (ya no estoy)

Voy a ponerte un stop (stop!)

Ya no quieras llamar mi atención

Lo que tienes se llama obsesión

Es así

Engañas a la gente

Tu patético rol de inocente

Puedo ver que no eres transparente

Tu disfraz se me hizo evidente

Voy a ponerte un stop (stop!)

Ya no quieras llamar mi atención

Lo que tienes se llama obsesión

Es así
