Barbi Superestar
Joaquín Sabina
Barbie Superstar
She had tiny feet
And eyes, marijuana green
At fourteen she was the queen of the school
From the grade I repeated
The girls from the eighth on the right said
Another one that turns out bad
When they saw her on 'Martian Chronicles'
Doing a striptease
In her porcelain daydreams
She conquered Al Pacino
We from 'El Rayo' were nothing special
For Her Grace
Yes, the little one from 'Mariquita Pérez'
Had a good godfather
The producers, who know about women
Would give her a role
Strawberry nipple, caramel tongue
Bromide heart
Superstar, luxury whore, model
Soap opera star
There was a future in the hungry pupils
Of mature men
Falling in love a little too much
Was a bad investment
She debuted as 'so-and-so'
In a vile melodrama
With her twenty minutes of fame
She retired her mom
The script demanded more and more
Bed scenes
Still, in Vallecas, they call her
Barbie Superstar
The night before the wedding night
She threw in the towel
The groom, in an outdated tuxedo
Became a widower at the altar
Meanwhile, Barbie levitated on the Harley
Of a beach pimp
Who, between Tarot, Corto Maltese, and Bob Marley
Suggested she abort
To hell you go by shortcuts
Syringes, prescriptions
Yesterday, a mess
She told me, in a bar's tiger
'Where's the song you made for me
When you were a poet?'
It ended so sadly
That I could never start it
For those lips, tasting like a stew
Of filthy pensions
I would have killed, for when I die
It's never for love
It was chewed on in the pool halls that 'El Rayo'
Had been relegated to second division
The horse skidded on the M-30
Of disillusion
She debuted as 'so-and-so'
In a vile melodrama
With her twenty minutes of fame
She retired her mom
The script demanded, more and more
Bed scenes
In Vallecas, nobody calls her
Barbie Superstar
