Yo Quiero Ser Una Chica Almodovar

I want to be an Almodovar girl
Like La Maura, like Victoria Abril
A little smart, a little silly
Go with Madonna in a limousine

I want to be an Almodovar girl
Like Bibi, like Miguel Bose
To go beyond everything and not go out of style
Dance with you the last cuplé

And not stop traveling from winter to summer
From Madrid to New York, from embrace to oblivion
Leave you in the dark listening to a noise
Of distant heels

Find the way out of this gray labyrinth
Without passion or sin, nor madness or incest
To have a different lover in every port
Not to shout 'What have I done to deserve this!'

I want to be an Almodovar girl
Like Pepi, like Luci like Bom
Sell my bedroom secrets to Garbo
Wear mourning for a bullfighter

I want to be an Almodovar girl
To beg my guy 'Tie me up!'
Not to give my soul except to the one who steals it
Have breakfast at Tiffany's with him

And not allow those crappy moves
From Croats and Serbs to mess with my head
Go through life on the verge of a nervous breakdown
With skirts and craziness

Find the way out of this gray labyrinth
Without passion or sin, nor madness or incest
To have a different lover in every port
Not to shout 'What have I done to deserve this!'

As dumbfounded write my memoirs
Sign up for any kind of bombardment
Have no other faith than the skin
No law other than the law of desire

Find the way out of this gray labyrinth
Without passion or sin, nor madness or incest
To have a different lover in every port
Not to shout 'What have I done to deserve this!'
