Merodeando
Los Peces Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dice fernando que anda buscando su alma gemela,
Y mientras tanto sucumbe al canto de las sirenas,
Puerto pa arriba,puerto pa abajo,cuesta trabajo,
Mantener la vocacion con la tripita llena...

Y en la cantina,de fina o fina la misma rutina,
Las mismas bromas,los mismos aromas de ajo y sardina,
Dice fernando que anda buscando un amorio,
Pero tengo la impresion de que le van los lios...

Merodeando anda de flor en flor,
De bando a bando,de sol a sol...

Tirando en la arena,serena que pena,que triste le lleva,
Cual fue tu delito para estar solito adan sin tu eva?




La gente murmura,que tienes encanto y madera de cura,
Pero tu santo es el patron de los caraduras...
