[English]

I want an anatomical zoom

...

I want the end of the secret

Between your silver lips

And my unforgettable steel

I want a loop

Starring

...

Come

Try me and you'll see that we are all addicts

...

To these fireworks

I'm going to make an intense macro porn

What seduces is rarely found

Where it's thought

...

Zoom

...

I've been around here

And you burst out laughing

Your corners

Give me a zoom

Lights, camera, and action

...

[Spanish]

Quiero un zoom anatómico

Quiero el fin del secreto

Entre tus labios de plata

Y mi acero inolvidable

Quiero un loop

Protagónico

Ven

Pruébame y verás que todos somos adictos

A estos fuegos de artificio

Voy a hacer un macro porno intenso

Lo que seduce nunca suele estar

Donde se piensa

Zoom

Por aquí ya estuve

Y te largas a reir

Tus comisuras

Dame un zoom

Luz, cámara y acción
