Día De Feria
Quique González
Fair Day
Today Raimundo plays at the closing party
that's why the iron benches on the bumper cars
are full of beautiful gypsy girls
next to the booth, behind the tent
We'll meet at nine-thirty
he'll look like a child going up on the Ferris wheel
the neighborhood boys are burning stones
but in the popular booth
the wine is more expensive and the fruit shines
gel in the hair and brand shirts
four waiters are still in the fight
where they serve us Cuban mojito
And it's your heart, a roller coaster,
and mine a pair of dirty boots
it's your heart, a roller coaster
going down your blouse
this song is written
Orchestra singers performing playback
failed shotguns and televisions
dancers who never became stars
queens of the rumba of the attractions
Candy skin and apple sweet
soulless beers and bingo cards
people in line only wonder
Will Madrid win against Barça on Sunday?
And it's your heart a roller coaster,
and mine a pair of dirty boots
