Las Palabritas | The Little Words |
Qué facil fue él engañarme Y utilizarme a tu antojo Lograr todos tus caprichos Empeñarme hastas los ojos Tú me arrancaste la piel Tú me chupaste la sangre Eres como una culebra Con un buen disfraz de ángel Yo fui como un mal secreto Me ocultaste en tu vida Siempre fui patito feo Para toda tu familia Y ese patito llamo a un cisne Con sus plumitas doras Que ya tiene quien le quiera Sin pedirle a cambio na' Coro: Las palabritas se las lleva el viento Las palabritas se las lleva el aire Yo fui dueña de tus ojos Sin que lo supiera nadie Y ahora me ves y te callas Y hasta me das tú de la'o Como si fuera un bicho raro Y mi amor fuese peca'o Coro Tú me pedías la luna Yo iba corriendo a por ella No dejaste más fortuna Que el cariño de mi perra Ella sí se daba cuenta Que tú conmigo jugabas Por eso me ve a mí llorando La carita me besaba Mis amigos me decían ¿No ves que te está exprimiendo? Me envolvías en tu mundo Me apartabas tú de ellos Ya la teta se ha acaba'o Ya mi grifo se ha seca'o Anda arrimate a otro palo Que esta tonta ha desperta'o! Coro Las palabritas se las lleva el viento Las palabritas se las lleva el aire × 2 Coro |
How easy it was to con me And to use me as you pleased To achieve all your caprices To indebt me up to the eyeballs You tore away my skin You sucked my blood You are like a snake Well disguised as an angel I was like an evil secret You concealed me in your life I was always an ugly duckling For all your family And this duckling I call a swan With her gilded down That now has who she wants Without asking him to change anything Chorus: The little words, the wind carries them The little words, the air carries them I was the owner of your eyes Though nobody would know it And now you see me and keep quiet And even cold-shoulder me As if I was a strange freak And my love was sinful Chorus You used to ask me for the moon I used to go running for it You did not leave more fortune Than the affection of my dog She realised That you were playing with me That is why on seeing me weeping She used to kiss me on my sweet face My friends used to say to me “Do you not see that he is exploiting you?” You were wrapping me in your world You were separating me from them Now the breastfeeding has ended Now my tap has run dry Walk closer to another plank * This fool has woken up!

* | ‘Plank’ is British slang for an idiot, usually heard as “You plank!” when someone has done or said something stupid. I am not certain of the usage of “palo” in this context but the slang “plank” fits well! |
