Chiquito

Now that I was with you
poor conceited little man
I saw you in your underwear
and I could discover

that you really have nothing
not a single thing
nothing to boast about
since you can tell me
if what my eyes saw
just made me laugh

I was expecting some arms
so muscular and strong
and they turned out to be little bones

I was expecting a great body
like those of well-built athletes
and it turned out to be a little flabby

you have tiny feet
tiny eyes
tiny heels
in short, everything tiny

YOU'RE LISTENING TO ME, USELESS
HOW UNKIND NATURE WAS TO YOU

you can now leave your pride
keep your vanities
all your boasting
you can throw them away

and I beg you not to be offended
but you need to know
that in the market they give you

lots of 2 for the price
skeletons like yours
and they don't want to buy them

I was expecting some arms
so muscular and strong
and they turned out to be little bones

I was expecting a great body
like those of well-built athletes
and it turned out to be a little flabby

you have tiny feet
tiny eyes
tiny heels
in short, everything tiny
