Eloise
Stravaganzza Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Es un huracán, profesional, que viene y va,
buscando acción, vendiendo solo amor.
Aniquilar, pasar por encima del bien y el mal,
es natural, en ella es natural.

En tiempo de relax empolva su nariz,
Eloise, Eloise
dolor en tus caricias, y cuentos chinos,

yo seguiré siendo tu perro fiel eeeeel

Mas Eloise es rápida como la pólvora,
serpiente en el Eden,
siempre va a cien
Donde quiera que va,
la bomba de Hirosoma está
a punto de estallar,
peligro no tocar,
sus pechos goma dos y nitroglicerina,
Eloise, Eloise,
dolor en tus caricias,
y cuentos chinos,
yo seguiré siendo tu perro fiel eeeeel

Mi Eloise, amar deprisa,
amar de pie, no sé porque,
me ocultas algo,
tu doble riesgo,
correré, me perderé

La fiebre y el placer, que puedo hacer, se convirtió
en sucio polvo gris,
quien me lo iba a decir.

Con tanta actividad me mortificas sin piedad,
y ya no puedo más, tímida luz de gas
sus pechos goma dos y nitroglicerina, Eloise, Eloise,
tantas noches como te besé, dolor en tus caricias,
tantas veces te maldeciré, y cuentos chinos,
yo fuí atrapado en mi propia red

Como una araña en cautividad, ya no podré escapar

Música: Tino Casal (adaptada de la original de Barry Ryan)
Letra: Tino Casal

Overall Meaning

The song Eloise by Stravaganzza tells the story of a woman who is like a hurricane, going through life seeking action and selling only love. She annihilates everything in her path, including the good and the bad, as it comes naturally to her. Despite this, the singer is completely under her spell and will remain her faithful dog.

The lyrics describe Eloise as a fast and explosive woman, always on the move and ready to explode like the bomb in Hiroshima. She is dangerous to touch, with breasts like rubber and explosive nitroglycerin. The singer is both in love with her and terrified of her, as she constantly puts him on edge and leaves him mortified without mercy. As the song progresses, we learn that the fever and pleasure of being with Eloise have turned to dirty, grey dust, and the singer is trapped in his own web like a captive spider.
