[English]

What a joy it is to cut your hair

I love how you suck on me like candy

...

I like you being as solid as a rock

I miss covering your mouth with my tail so much

...

Oh, and a romantic promise

...

Oh, I see myself as a psychopath

Oh, a political breakfast

...

Oh, every part of me misses you in bed, my love

We have to reclaim our hearts

...

If I don't have you, I'm going to kill you

We have to reclaim our hearts

Set fire to every chain

Set it on fire

...

I love you like in Buenos Aires

Sticking my fingers into the ballroom

...

Do you remember? You and I in Puerto Rico

You shooting to kill like a soldier

...

Oh, in a unified grind

Oh, we met chaotically

Oh, like mobsters in Mexico

Oh, every part of me misses you in bed, my love

We have to reclaim our hearts

...

If I don't have you, I'm going to kill you

We have to reclaim our hearts

Set fire to every chain

Set it on fire (cat!)

My life, where are you? (Set it on fire)

Oh, I dreamed about you the other day (set it on fire)

Oh, and you were with someone else (set it on fire)

Fuck "Bohemian Rhapsody" (set it on fire)

I've wet my white sheets (set it on fire)

Nobody is like you in my bed (set it on fire)

Oh, I settled down for you, my love (set it on fire)

Set it on fire, mom

Set it on fire

...

[Spanish]

Qué goce es cortarte el pelo

Me encanta que me chupes como caramelo

Me gusta que estés como roca

Extraño tanto con la cola taparte la boca

Oh, y una promesa romántica

Oh, me veo como sicópata

Oh, un desayuno político

Oh, te extraña en la cama, mi amor, cada parte de mí

Hay que recuperar nuestro corazón

Si no te tengo, voy a matarte

Hay que recuperar nuestro corazón

Préndele fuego a cada cadena

Préndele fuego

Te quiero como en Buenos Aires

Metiéndome los dedo en el salón de baile

¿Te acuerdas? Tú y yo en Puerto Rico

Tú disparando a matar como lo milico

Oh, en un perreo unísono

Oh, nos conocimos caóticos

Oh, como mafiosos en México

Oh, te extraña en la cama, mi amor, cada parte de mí

Hay que recuperar nuestro corazón

Si no te tengo, voy a matarte

Hay que recuperar nuestro corazón

Préndele fuego a cada cadena

Préndele fuego (¡gato!)

Mi vida, ¿en dónde estás? (Préndele fuego)

Ay, el otro día te soñé (préndele fuego)

Ay, y te cogías a otra (préndele fuego)

Fuck "Bohemian Rhapsody" (préndele fuego)

He mojado mis sábanas blancas (préndele fuego)

En mi cama nadie es como tú (préndele fuego)

Ay, senté cabeza por ti, mi amor (préndele fuego)

Préndele fuego, mamá

Préndele
