Maniquí

Muchachito de abolengo
Tirifilo engominado
Aristócrata travieso
Nene lindo y holgazán
Con tu traje entalladito
Elegante y bien planchado
Con perdón de la palabra
Sos un maniquí viván
Los viernes, día de moda
En el hall de aquel cinema
Te entallás con todo esmero
Porque fuiste artificial
Y con lánguidas miradas
De gatito hecho una crema
Relojeás las damiselas
De la gran vida social
Distinguido
Jovencito niño bien
Yo sé que te agrada mucho
La música de Chopén
La poesía
Que en fiestas interpretás
Es tan cándida y tan dulce
Que las chicas piden más
Todo un biscuit de vitrina
Es tu figurita pulida
De familia millonaria
Y alto rango desceñidse
Si te abaraja un bohemio
Antes de irte de la vida
Te hace una caricatura
Porque te la mereces
