Ella ya hizo todo lo que es bueno
She already did everything that's good
Estudió para galeno
Studied to be a doctor
Se cuidó del que dirán
She took care of what they'll say
Cumplió con su papá poniendo freno
She obeyed her dad by holding back
Al peligro del veneno
From the danger of the poison
De toparse algún Don Juan
Of bumping into any Don Juan
Ella quiere besos en la esquina
She wants kisses on the corner
Sexo en la cocina
Sex in the kitchen
Gimnasia en el sillón
Gymnastics on the sofa
Treparse como Yen de las cortinas
Climbing like Yen from the curtains
Desnudarse en la oficina
Undressing in the office
Bailar en el colchón
Dancing on the mattress
Y celebrar que está viva
And celebrating that she's alive
Explotando en libertad
Bursting with freedom
Para sanar las heridas
To heal the wounds
Con pura electricidad
With pure electricity
Con pura electricidad
With pure electricity
Ella quiere viajes con mochila
She wants backpacking trips
Vestirse de asesina
Dressing up like a killer
Besar a un picaflor
Kissing a flirtatious little bird
Sangrar con esas flores con espina
Bleeding with those flowers with thorns
Celebrar la indisciplina
Celebrating the indiscipline
Con un grito alentador
With an encouraging shout
Y celebrar que está viva
And celebrating that she's alive
Explotando en libertad
Exploding in freedom
Para sanar las heridas
To heal the wounds
Con pura electricidad
With pure electricity
Con pura electricidad
With pure electricity
Y recordar que la vida
And remembering that life
Es sólo una, no hay dos
Is just one, there are no two
Al cuerpo lo que le pida
To the body, whatever it desires
Y al que dirán un adiós
And to the judgments, a farewell
Y celebrar que está viva
And celebrate that it's alive
Explotando en libertad
Bursting forth in freedom
Para sanar las heridas
To heal the wounds
Con pura electricidad
With pure electricity
Y celebrar que está viva
And celebrate that it's alive
Explotando en libertad
Bursting forth in freedom
Para sanar las heridas
To heal the wounds
Con pura electricidad
With pure electricity
Con pura electricidad
With pure electricity
