Medias Negras

I saw her on Serra streetLa vi en la calle Serra
Bullfighting with a bus bagToreando con la bolsa un autobus
She was wearing black stockingsLlevaba medias negras
And a brown leather miniskirtY minifalda de cuero marrón
She said you got a lightMe dijo tienes fuego
Don't worry, I'm not doing anything illegalTranquilo que no hago nada ilegal
I got out of jail yesterdaySalí ayer del talego
How about you invite me for dinnerQue tal si me invitaras a cenar

That's when the rain startedAhí empezó la lluvía
I had an umbrella and she didn'tYo andaba paragüas y ella no
Where are we going, blonde?¿A dónde vamos rubia?
Wherever you take me, she repliedA donde tú me lleves contestó
So we went toAsí es que fuimos hasta
My house, and in the county I warned herMi casa, y en el condado le advertí
A mattress is enough for usCon un colchón nos basta
Stove, sweetheart, I have youDe estufa corazón te tengo a tí

I warmed up a soupLe calenté una sopa
With red wine, bread, and salami, what a blast!Con vino tinto, pan y salchichón ¡que vacilón!
And by the second glassY a la segunda copa
What do we do with the clothes? She asked¿Qué hacemos con la ropa? Preguntó
And I, who never hadY yo que nunca tuve
More religion than a woman's bodyMás religión que un cuerpo de mujer
From the neck of a cloudDel cuello de una nube
That dawn I hung myself, Oh, how I enjoyedAquella madrugada me colgué, Ay como gozé

I was alone whenEstaba solo cuando
The sunlight hit me and woke me upLa luz del sol me dio y me desveló
I woke up huggingMe desperté abrazando
The absence of her body on my mattressLa ausencia de su cuerpo en mi colchón
The bad thing is not that she ran awayLo malo no es que huyera
With my wallet and my watchCon mi cartera y con mi reloj
Worse is that she leftPeor es que se fuera
Also stealing my heartRobándome además el corazón

At night, Fairy skinDe noche Piel de hada
And in broad daylight, Cruella de VilY a plena luz del día Cruela de Vil
Damn dawnMaldita madrugada
And I who thought I was Steven QuinnY yo que me creía Steven Quinn
And if you meet her on Serra streetY si en la calle Serra te la encuentras
Tell her I wrote a song for her, Oh, from the heart!Dile que le escrito un son ¡ay de corazón!
She was wearing black stockingsLlevaba medias negras
And a brown leather miniskirt, What a healing!Y minifalda de cuero marrón ¡Que sanación!

She was wearing black stockings and stole my heartLlevaba medias negras y me robó el corazón
I sing to avoid cryingYo canto por no llorar
But tomorrow night I'll go out to look for herPero mañana de nochesita la salgo a buscar
She was wearing black stockings and stole my heartLlevaba medias negras y me robó el corazón
Ohhhh, what a mess she got me intoOhhhh, vaya lío en que me metió
That woman took my heartEsa mujer el corazón me llevó
She was wearing black stockings and stole my heartLlevaba medias negras y me robó el corazón
Damn dawn when I saw herMaldita madrugada en que yo la vi
The very shameless one mocked meLa muy descarada se burló de mi

She was wearing black stockings and stole my heartLlevaba medias negras y me robó el corazón
I'm following her trailYo voy siguiendo su pista
It seems I'm a masochistSe ve que soy masoquista
She was wearing black stockings and stole my heartLlevaba medias negras y me robó el corazón
And she took my watch and walletY me llevó el reloj y la billetera
Left my fridge emptyMe dejó vacía toda la nevera
She was wearing black stockings and stole my heartLlevaba medias negras y me robó el corazón
And if you meet her on Serra streetY si en la calle Serra te la encuentras
Tell her I dedicate this song to herDile que le dedico este son
