Cuidado Con Los 50

A law about morality
was decreed by the police
and for which a man must refrain
from saying sweet words to a woman.
When a beautiful one comes our way
we can't even give her a compliment
and all we can do is look and stay quiet
if we value our freedom.
Wow!... I don’t know
why they’d ban a man
from giving a compliment to a woman!
Shh!... No talking,
because if you overstep
you’ll pay fifty bucks!

When I see any woman
I’ll just give her a wink.

And be careful,
because if she notices,
oh man, those fifty
will be my fate.

Because of this original law
a mishap happened to Mr. Pascual:
last night, seeing a silly lady,
he said: Goodbye, bright star, divine beauty.
When she heard it, she got mad
and slapped the poor guy
and took him to the cop shop...
For offending morality.
Wow!... I don’t know
why they’d ban a man
from giving a compliment to a woman!...
No talking!... Shh,
because it could cost you
fifty from the nation!

You gotta be really careful
when you’re face to face with a woman.

As for me,
when I see one,
no matter how pretty she is,
I won’t say a thing.
