La aceituna
Melendi
The Olive
I was on the terrace, at Uncle Pepe's bar
Having a vermouth, watching people go by
When suddenly, you appeared
With that front, panther-like strides
Arrogant look, like a lieutenant's insignia
And between my teeth, only the olive......
.....from Martín that I threw as soon as I saw you
and asking God for luck
I went to steal your heart
and it's because I am................an artist
like the top of a pine tree
I always drink wine from a wineskin
I like women
more than a fool likes candy
more than an intern likes Clinton
I like brunettes, chubby ones, sirens,
with freckles and without them, and even those with beards
I think they look good
you always have to take risks
in matters of love
because time vanishes
and my pace is slower
than a snail's
She acted clueless, even if the sky whistled at her
When I asked her, excuse me, what time is it?
And she, as if annoyed, said: it's three o'clock
Then I asked her, what is a woman
As beautiful as you doing in a place like this?
And she, cursing, wanted to imply
That she never forgets a face
But because I am so stubborn
She would make an exception with me....
and it's because I am................an artist
like the top of a pine tree
I always drink wine from a wineskin
I like women
more than a fool likes candy
more than an intern likes Clinton
I like brunettes, chubby ones, sirens,
with freckles and without them, and even those with beards
I think they look good
you always have to take risks
in matters of love
