Cara De Chango

In the summer afternoons
when the heat intensifies
I imagine myself here on the beach
under the sun's rays
watching the bikinis
next to the sea waves
the last thing I want
is to meet you again
I tell you I don't want to see
your monkey face.

And if I go out with someone
in a formal way
we go to the movies
then some bar
after a few beers
they say yes
the last thing I want
is to know anything about you
I tell you I don't want to see
your monkey face.

Being at a party
or caught up in the web
understand me, Nikima
I don't want to see you
don't call me and hang up
I ask you please
the last thing I want
is something between us
I tell you I don't want to see
your monkey face.

Your simian, orangutan
gorilla-like, spider monkey
mandrill-like or macaque
even if it's in a picture
of a monkey and chimpanzee
it won't work between us
listen to what I say
missing link
I tell you I don't want to see
your monkey face.
