Alejandro {Reggaeton Remix}
Lady GaGa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know that we are young
And I know that you may love me
But I just can't be with you like this anymore
Alejandro

She's got both hands
In her pocket
And she won't look at you
Won't look at you
She hides true love
En su bolsillo
She got a halo around her finger
Around you

You know that I love you boy
Hot like Mexico, rejoice
At this point I gotta choose
Nothing to lose

Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Alejandro
I'm not your babe
I'm not your babe, Fernando

Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch
Just smoke my cigarette and hush
Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Roberto

Alejandro

Stop, please
Just let me go Alejandro
Just let me go

She's not broken
She's just a baby
But her boyfriend's like a dad, just like a dad
And all those flames that burned before him
Now he's gonna fire fight, gotta cool the bad

You know that I love you boy
Hot like Mexico, rejoice
At this point I've gotta choose
Nothing to lose

Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Alejandro
I'm not your babe
I'm not your babe, Fernando

Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch
Just smoke my cigarette and hush
Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Roberto

Don't bother me
Don't bother me, Alejandro
Don't call my name
Don't call my name, bye, Fernando
I'm not your babe
I'm not your babe, Alejandro
Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch
Fernando

Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Alejandro
I'm not your babe
I'm not your babe, Fernando
Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch
Just smoke my cigarette and hush
Don't call my name
Don't call my name
Roberto

Alejandro

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lady Gaga's "Alejandro" portray the story of a woman who is trying to break away from a past relationship, but is struggling to do so. The main character, referred to as "Alejandro," is representative of all the men in her life who have hurt her in some way. She sings about her youthful age and her realization that she cannot stay with him any longer. The lines "I know that we are young / And I know that you may love me / But I just can't be with you like this anymore" express her reluctance to remain in an unhealthy relationship simply due to her age, and her call for independence and self-respect.


As the song continues, the singer describes a woman who is hiding her true feelings in her pocket, not willing to express them to others, including her current partner. Despite this, she finds herself in a situation where she is being controlled by him, as if he were a provider and a paternal figure. She once again asserts her independence and self-worth, stating that she loves the man but has to choose to break away.


The chorus is repetitive, emphasizing the importance of severing ties with negative people in life. Yet, she cannot help but feel a sense of guilt, as it’s hard for her to completely sever the relationship. This song encourages the listener to leave relationships behind for personal growth and happiness.
