Niña de La Noche

From seven to three she's the best student
Wears a skirt, socks, and school shoes
No one can explain her terrible dark circles
Her constant yawns, her desire to escape

Her reality is a string of siblings
Who stay at home, have nothing to eat
And her father's retirement papers
Have had no response for a year

Need has taught her to take advantage of the night
In some way
So that men's desires turn
Always into bread for her family
And at ten at night, disguised
The schoolgirl becomes a walking object

Night girl, you get into another car
Surely he's not your prince charming
Night girl, you get into another car
Surely he's not your prince charming

And as you increase the dose of lipstick
The Latin teacher joins
The list of clients, to your surprise

At dawn she returns home
To finish the social studies homework
She feels used but must conclude
The summary of Columbus and his second journey

And although she dies of sorrow every day
She counts the bills from her last job

Night girl, you get into another car
Surely he's not your prince charming
Night girl, you get into another car
Surely he's not your prince charming

And as you increase the dose of lipstick
The Latin teacher joins
The list of clients, to your surprise

Night girl, you get into another car
Surely he's not your prince charming
Night girl, you get into another car
Surely he's not your prince charming

Night girl, you get into another car
Surely he's not your prince charming
Night girl, you get into another car
Surely he's not your prince charming

Night girl, you surely see your prince charming
Night girl, you surely see your prince charming
