Carmensita

Ay tu primo Colorado

Con barba camburada

Y llena de ballena

Inclinadose al Sol

Ay tu rayo de luz roja

Besando nuestra boca

El beso que te sopla

Huele al col

Tus tres ojos lunares

Extraterrestriales

Entran cuando sales

Por eso no se ven

Ay tu barba colorada

Traviesa y rebelde

Me afeito con espada

Pero devuelve

La la la la la la

Si la noche te persigue

Entrégate a ella

O dile que tienes dolor de cabeza

Sombrita de reflejo

Dame algo tierno

Me como tu amor

Y cago el infierno

Adio, adio, adio

Primo granje

Hola Bernardo

La la la la la la la

Ay tus ojos colorados

Azul y anaranjados

Amarillo verde y marrón

Mi amor envuelto en tu corazón

No lo sueltes por favor

Somos elefante y serpiente semejante

Tomando aguardiente

En el Sol

De una flor

La la la la la la la
