Mentirosa
Nene Torres Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tu me preguntas que me esta pasando
después de lo que mis ojos vieron hoy
el cinismo te anda ganando
recuerda ya no soy aquel tonto

Y decías que tu eras perfecta
que eras una obra maestra
una niña sin pecados como no

Mentirosa eres muy bonita pero peligrosa
resulta la calmada ventajosa
resulta que es demonio no una diosa

Mentirosa eres muy bonita pero peligrosa
quieres valer oro siendo poca cosa
dime cuando la piratería es costosa

Y decías que tu eras perfecta
que eras una obra maestra
una niña sin pecados como no

Mentirosa eres muy bonita pero peligrosa
resulta la calmada ventajosa
resulta que es demonio no una diosa

Mentirosa eres muy bonita pero peligrosa
quieres valer oro siendo poca cosa

dime cuando la piratería es costosa
Mentirosa, Mentirosa
