No le digas
no le digas que no
no le digas
no le digas que no...

No me digas

tu compania
me pudo matar
y todav¡a

la policía

Todo es mentira
lo dijo tu amiga
me estoy cansando
de verte llorar
y todavía

la policía
me vino a buscar
y aquí estoy
en la avenida
sin saber como voy a hacer
todo es mentira
lo dijo tu amiga
me estoy cansando

De verte llorar
y todavía
est s sorprendida
la policía
me vino a buscar
y aquí estoy




en la avenida
sin saber como voy a hacer

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Ratones Paranoicos's song "No Me Digas Que No" convey a sense of betrayal and confusion from a male perspective. The repeated phrase "no le digas que no" seems to urge someone (perhaps the female love interest) not to say no, indicating a plea for forgiveness or a desire to make amends. The singer is frustrated that the woman did not realize the danger of her company, as it almost led to his death and subsequent arrest by the police. The line "todo es mentira, lo dijo tu amiga" suggests that someone, perhaps even the female love interest, is spreading lies or rumors about the singer, causing emotional distress while he deals with the police visit.


The chorus of the song implies a sense of helplessness and uncertainty, with the singer standing in the middle of the street (la avenida) and not knowing what to do or where to go. The repetition of "todavía estás sorprendida" (you're still surprised) implies that the woman is not fully aware of the consequences of her actions or what the singer is going through.


The general mood of the song is somber and melancholic, with the use of distorted guitars and echoing vocals adding to the sense of desperation and confusion. The lyrics paint a picture of a bitter, disillusioned man who has been through a traumatic experience at the hands of someone he trusted.
