Señorita
Ricardo Arjona
Lyrics
Translation
Sus pechos como punta de una roca
Her breasts like the tip of a rock
Se paseaban en el bar sirviendo tragos
They strolled around the bar serving drinks
Vestida como quien no quiere ropa
Dressed as if she didn't want clothes
Y más trucos en la piel que cualquier mago
And more tricks on her skin than any magician
Tenía varios nombres pa' olvidarse
She had several names to forget
Del nombre que le dieron en la casa
The name given to her at home
Tenía un pasado ideal pa' no acordarse
She had an ideal past not to remember
Y fama de cumplir cuando amenaza
And a reputation for delivering when threatening
Los martes se llamaba Margarita
On Tuesdays, she was called Margarita
Los viernes por las noches ya era Lola
By Friday nights, she was already Lola
Yo siempre le decía señorita
I always called her "señorita"
Usted no tiene por qué estar tan sola
You don't have to be so alone
Recuerdo el jueves de aquel primer beso
I remember the Thursday of that first kiss
Su nombre aquella noche era Julieta
Her name that night was Julieta
Instinto siempre pudo más que seso
Instinct always prevailed over reason
Asuntos que no entienden los poetas
Things that poets don't understand
Jamás hubo una cama en nuestra historia
There was never a bed in our story
En baños y despensas trapecistas
In bathrooms and pantries like trapeze artists
Tatuada está su espalda en mi memoria
Her back tattooed in my memory
Dos locos en un bar a los hedonistas
Two crazies in a bar among hedonists
Los martes se llamaba Margarita
On Tuesdays, she was called Margarita
Los viernes por las noches ya era Lola
By Friday nights, she was already Lola
Yo siempre le decía señorita
I always called her "señorita"
Usted no tiene por qué estar tan sola
You don't have to be so alone
Un lunes con el nombre de María
One Monday, named María
Me dijo hasta mañana y no volvió
She said "see you tomorrow" and didn't return
El bar se llama hoy Melancolía
The bar is now called Melancholy
Los martes se llamaba Margarita
On Tuesdays, she was called Margarita
Los viernes por las noches ya era Lola
By Friday nights, she was already Lola
Yo siempre le decía señorita
I always called her "señorita"
Usted no tiene por qué estar tan sola
You don't have to be so alone
