Apaga Y Vamonos
Azúcar Moreno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tus ojos no me engañan que ha pasado?
No vengas a sentirte ahora culpable
Nadie sospecha que sos amantes
Y crees que alguien nos descubrió
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Nos sorprendieron con la masa en la mano
En que te basas para seguro
Este lugar es sórdido y oscuro
Me cuentas que ya tienen alguna fotos
De cuerpo entero que revelan todo
Que la sangre se te heló
La vergüenza te mató
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Esto se pone demasiado complicado
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Nos sorprendieron con la masa en la mano
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Esto se pone demasiado complicado
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Nos sorprendieron con la masa en la mano
Ya no quieres que sentirte como el gato y el ratón
Es mejor así la persecución terminó
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Esto se pone demasiado complicado
Apaga y vámonos
Apaga y vámonos
Nos sorprendieron con la masa en la mano
The song "Apaga y Vamonos" by Azucar Moreno begins with the singer noticing their lover's sadness and silence, questioning what has happened. The lover tries to downplay the situation, saying they have not been caught as lovers, and yet believe someone may have discovered their relationship. The chorus, "Apaga y Vamonos," emphasizes the need to leave and escape the complicated situation they find themselves in. The second verse reveals that the couple may have been caught doing something compromising, as the lover says that "they already have some photos" that reveal everything.
The second chorus further emphasizes the need to leave, as they have been caught "with the masa en la mano," which could mean being caught red-handed or having evidence against them. The final verse illustrates the desire for the relationship to no longer feel like a game of cat and mouse and how it is better to end the pursuit. The repetition of "Apaga y Vamonos" at the end of the song shows the ultimate decision to abandon the situation and move on.
The song speaks to the complexities of secret relationships and the desire to avoid being caught. The repetition of "Apaga y Vamonos" underscores the urgency and need to leave, emphasizing the difficult predicament the couple finds themselves in.
