Lolita
Orquesta Mondragón Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y abro la puerta y estas ahí,
Dulce regalo que Satanás,
Manda para mí.
Su asignatura quiero aprobar,
Explíqueme otra vez la lección,
Deme una clase particular,
Señor profesor.
Perversa piel de melocotón,
Lolita, maldita,
De adolescente sin corazón.
Bajo la falda de colegial,
Cruzas las piernas con intención,
Y tu ligero me hace olvidar,
La lección.
Hoy no has venido
Y había francés,
Vas a arruinar mi reputación,
Sobresaliente te puse ayer,
En pasión.
Lolita, me excitas,
Perversa piel de melocotón,
Lolita, maldita,
De adolescente sin corazón.
Niña de fuego
Con labios de mujer fatal
Donde se entere de nuestros juegos
Tu papá...
Niña de fuego
Con labios de mujer fatal
Donde se entere de nuestros juegos
Tu papá...
Lolita, me excitas,
Perversa piel de melocotón,
Lolita, maldita,
De adolescente sin corazón.
Niña de fuego
Con labios de mujer fatal
Donde se entere de nuestros juegos
Tu papá...
Niña de fuego
Con labios de mujer fatal
Donde se entere de nuestros juegos
Tu papá...
Mmm lolita
The song "Lolita" by Orquesta Mondragón is a controversial and provocative piece. The first verse depicts a scene where the singer is called to the door and finds Lolita, a teenage girl, waiting for him. He welcomes her as a sweet gift from Satan and expresses his desire to pass her subject by having her explain the lesson to him again. He begs for a private class, calling her a "professor." In the chorus, he confesses that Lolita excites him, calling her a cursed teenage girl with heartless skin.
In the second verse, Lolita seduces the singer by crossing her legs with an enticing gesture, distracting him from his French class, threatening to ruin his reputation. He had given her an "Outstanding" grade in passion the day before. The bridge then repeats the theme that Lolita is a fiery girl with the lips of a femme fatale, warning that their games will have dangerous consequences if her dad finds out.
"Lolita" is a critique of predatory relationships that involve power imbalances and abuse, particularly those involving older men and teenage girls. The song centers around a man who finds himself enchanted by Lolita, her beauty, and her youthfulness, despite the fact that their relationship is problematic and potentially harmful.
