Mujer contra mujer
Fey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dos mujeres que se dan la mano.
El matiz viene despues,
Cuando lo hacen por debajo del mantel.
Luego a solas sin nada que perder,
Tras las manos va el resto de la piel.
Un amor por ocultar y aun que
Lo disfrazan de amistad cuando salen
A pasear por la ciudad.
Uno opina que aquellono esta bien,
La otra opinaque que se le va a hacer
Y lo que opinen los demas esta demas.
Quien detiene palomas al vuelo,
Volando a ras del suelo: mujercontra mujer.
No estoy yo por la labor de tirarles la primera piedra,
Si equivoco la ocasion y las hallo labio en el salon,
Ni si quiera me atreveria a toser
Si no gusto ya se lo que hay que hacer,
Que con mis piedras hacen ellas su pared.
Quien detiene palomas al vuelo,
Volando a ras del suelo: mujer contra mujer.
Una opina que aquello no esta bien,
La otra opina que que se le va a hacer
Y lo que opinen los demas esta demas.
Quien detiene palomas al vuelo,
Volando a ras del suelo:mujer contra mujer.
The song "Mujer contra mujer" by Fey talks about two women who hold hands, and although it seems like nothing special at first, it becomes significant when they do it under the table. As the song progresses, it becomes apparent that these two women are in love, but they hide it from the world and disguise their relationship as a friendship when they go out in public. The chorus of the song repeats the line "Quien detiene palomas al vuelo, volando a ras del suelo: mujer contra mujer," which translates to "Who stops birds that fly low: woman against woman." This line speaks to the futility of trying to stop a love that is sincere and true, no matter the gender of the people involved.
The lyrics of this song explore themes of love, acceptance, and societal expectations. The singers acknowledge that some people might not approve of their love, but they refuse to let others dictate their lives. Ultimately, they find comfort in the fact that they have each other, despite the pressures of society and the judgment of others. This song is an important representation of the struggles faced by the LGBTQ+ community, especially in conservative societies that are slow to accept people who love differently.

Hahaha well, no. No one is sure if Fey is a Satanic witch, but the lyrics of this song are surely very disturbing, to say the least

Fey is a Satanic Witch. Everybody knows that in Mexico, and this is her most openly Satanic song. "Siento" was a focus of controversy in 2002 because of that reason
