Tortazos
Te conquistaron con plata
Y rajaste para adentro
Las luces malas del centro
Te hicieron meter la pata
Nada te importó che ingrata
Echaste todo a rodar
Pues tu afán de figurar
Enfermó tu alma de olvido
Y aura hasta tenés marido
Las cosas que hay que aguantar
M'hijita me causa gracia
Tu nuevo estado civil
Porque has engrupido a un gil
Que creyó en tu aristocracia
Vos sos la ñata Pancracia
Hija del tano Gerarto
Un goruta flaco y alto
Que trabajaba en la Boca
No te acordás, gringa loca
Cuando piantaste al asfalto
Y ahora tenés vuaturé
Usás tapao petigris y
Tenés un infeliz
Que la chamuya en francés
Que hacés, tres veces que hacés
Señora Clisolda Valle
Si cuando lucís tu talle
Con ese coso del brazo
No te rompo de un tortazo
Por no pegarte en la calle
Señora, pero hay que ver
Tu berretín de matrona
Si te acordás de Ramona
Abonale el alquiler
No te hagás la rastacuer
Desparramando la guita
Baja el copete m'hijita
Con tu vida bacanada
Pero si sos más manyada
Qu'el tango La Cumparsita
Slaps
You were won over with money
And you ran inside
The bad lights of downtown
Made you put your foot in it
You didn't care, ungrateful
You threw everything away
Because your desire to stand out
Sickened your soul with forgetfulness
And now you even have a husband
The things one has to endure
My dear, it amuses me
Your new marital status
Because you've fooled a fool
Who believed in your aristocracy
You are the snub Pancracia
Daughter of the Italian Gerarto
A tall, skinny brute
Who worked in La Boca
Don't you remember, crazy foreigner
When you ran off to the asphalt
And now you have a car
You wear a fur coat and
You have an unhappy man
Who sweet talks you in French
What are you doing, what are you doing three times
Mrs. Clisolda Valle
When you show off your figure
With that guy on your arm
I don't hit you with a slap
For not hitting you in the street
Madam, but one must see
Your obsession with being a matron
If you remember Ramona
Pay her the rent
Don't act like a high-class lady
Throwing money around
Lower your head, my dear
With your fancy life
But if you're more snobbish
Than the tango La Cumparsita
