Lloro Como Una Mujer

"You really had me fooled
With your sad story,
I thought you were dying
If I left you hanging...
You sighed so hard
That even the wallpaper
Started peeling off
Until it was all messed up.

"You decided to play dumb
And went for the easy way,
You got fired from your job
For being a fool and a loser...
Seeing you sick
Made me feel so down
And I started to care for you, you know,
Out of pity, I guess.

"You started liking the wild life
And left your shame behind,
Little by little, you lost
Your decency and your morals.
As money started to run low
You gave me such a headache,
That you left me in bed
With a view of the hospital.

"Since you ended up on the streets
And your old man, a poor Italian,
Was tight with the cash
For losers like you,
You asked me for help,
So I lent you a hand
By renting a little place
In the city for both of us.

"About a week later
You hit me up for cigarettes,
Then for a haircut
And to hang out at the café;
Once we had a fight
You threw stuff at me,
That if I didn’t dodge it
I’d be done for, I swear...

Tell me if I haven’t been
Like a mother to you,
Tell me if I deserve
What you’re planning to do.
Bowing my head under the weight
Of your bullshit and your games,
Kissing you on the head,
I cry, I cry like a woman."
