La Gata Loca
Mamborama Lyrics

Que solamenete el puede ver
Yo quisiera dormir mas tarde
La gata no me dara la paz
A mi gata la de a Chango su lucha loca
Y no me molestes mas
Mamborama's song "La Gata Loca" tells the story of a cat that seems to be tormenting its owner. The first verse translates to "She fights with the ghosts that only she can see." This suggests that the cat may be experiencing hallucinatory or imaginary episodes, which is not uncommon in felines. The second verse reveals the owner's desire to sleep in and be at peace, but the cat won't leave him alone. The line "La gata no me dara la paz" translates to "The cat won't give me peace." It's as though the cat is trying to communicate something, but the owner can't understand what it wants.
The third verse offers a possible explanation for the cat's strange behavior: "To my crazy cat, Chango gave her a battle." "Chango" is a reference to the Santeria god of thunder, who is often associated with strength, power, and determination. The line "su lucha loca" translates to "her crazy battle," which could be interpreted as a metaphor for the cat's struggle to communicate with its owner. The song ends with the owner pleading with the cat to stop bothering him: "And don't bother me anymore."

Found the Lyrics:
Ah ah ah ah ¡Gata, loca!
A las cinco de la mañana
la gata loca deja la cama
y cuando duerme el mundo
ella practica su kung-fu
Ella lucha con los fantasmas
que solamente ella puede ver,
ella baila con una rumba
que solamente ella puede oir
Claro que esta gata es loca
pero tiene mucho cariño,
voy a llamar la bruja,
quítate los demonios
Yo quisiera dormir más tarde
la gata no me dará la paz
a mi gata le da a Changó su lucha loca
¡no me molestes más!
ah ah ah ah ah Gata loca, baila rumba
Gata gata gata loca, negra loca,
te fuiste pa' la macumba, 'mba 'mba
Gata loca, baila rumba
Yo te vi encima del tejado con un gato prieto,
estabas bailando rumba
Gata loca, baila rumba
¡Miaooo!
Qué le pasa a esa gatica pero mira que bonita está,
gata loca, medio loca
Gata loca, baila rumba
Si tú no vienes a mí, negra,
no te voy a dar tu cosa
¡Gaaata miaooo
ah ah ah ah ah 'júa medio loca!
Esta gata es medio loca y lo que no sabes tú,
se me fue para un Ignacio (*)
y empezó a estudiar kung-fu
Hacia el 4 de Diciembre la gata se me subió,
y me dijo mi madrina "la gata ya es que le da a Changó"
Mi gatita ¡qué rica! miao miao ¡Loca!
ah ah ah ah ah me tiene loco, qué barbaridad
Gata loca, baila rumba
Yo no te voy a llevar conmigo, gata loca,
si tú no te pones pa' la cosa
Gata loca, baila rumba
Ella no me hace caso, ella es una mentirosa
¡Gata!
Gata loca, baila rumba
Miao, porque en La Habana hay una gata loca (**)
Ponte pa' tu cosa,
Gata loca, baila rumba
con Mamborama baila este son sabroso,
negra, ponte pa' la cosa
Gata loca, baila rumba
camina camina camina camina camina y ven pa' La Habana que la cosa aquí está sabrosa,
Gata loca, baila rumba
ya me lo dijo Melón, "corazón de melón" (***)
