Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Con que cara
Hoy vienes a buscarme
Cuanto ganas
Tratando de engañarte
Si en tu cara
Se nota que lo amaste
Y con que cara
Pretendes hoy jurarme
Que sola estabas
Cuando me abandonaste
Ya no me engañas
No puedo perdonarte
Bajanlo servira
Con que cara
Me hablas del pasado
Y con que cara
Si sabes que has fallado
Ya me basta
Con ver tu atitud egoista
Y con que cara
Te mientes a ti misma
Y con que cara
Estupida farsante
Hoy me pides
Que olvide lo de antes
Puedes darte
El lujo de marcharte
Con tu cara
De niña arrogante
Con que cara
Pretendes hoy besarme
Si de la cama
Ayer me desplazaste
Ya no deseo
Volver a conquistarte
Bajanlo servira
Con que cara
Me hablas del pasado
Y con que cara
Si sabes que has fallado
Ya me basta
Con ver tu actitud egoista
y con que cara
Te mientes a ti misma
Con que cara
Estupida farsante
Hoy me pides
Que olvide lo de antes
Puedes darte
El lujo de marcharte
Con tu cara
De niña arrogante
[Con que cara]
[Con que cara]
[Con que cara]
Estupida farsante no puedes engañarme
[Con que cara]
No eres la niña bonita que habia conquistado antes
[Con que cara]
Hoy vienes pidiendo perdon mas no quiero perdonarte
[Con que cara]
Si el no poder abrazarte ya no me quita la calma
[Con que cara]
Y se te cayo el disfraz tu obra ya esta acabada
[Con que cara]
No eres mas que una artista de profesion fracasada
