AFRO-CUBAN ALL STARS MENTIROSO LYRICS
! Bueno, you quiero que ustedes
sepan que ahora en el '96 voy a
seguir siendo metniroso !¨
Coros:
No Me digas más,
mentiroso, no me digas más
Una vez quise pasear,
y me fuà de pesquerÃa
pero no es mentira mÃa
esto que voy a cantar ,...
Un caimán en alta mar
con una pita pesque
la barriga le pique
y para que usted le escuche
Durmiendo dentro del buche
un caballo me encontré
No Me digas más,
mentiroso, no me digas más
En la finca La Guaracha
y no es mentira tampoco
sembré una mata de coco
que me daba remolacha
habÃa una cucaracha
que me enyugaba los bueyes
y cerca de los jagueys
sembré un rabo de jutÃa*
y me nacÃó al otro dÃa
una mata de mameyes coloraos
! Guiro !
No Me digas más,
mentiroso, no me digas más
Y he visto un chivó cantar
y un guanajo maromero
un cangrejo pelotero
y he visto un perro bailar
el ritmo del Guaguancó
una vaca que nacÃó
con comille de elefante
Pero no he visto un cantante
más mentiroso que yo.
! Guiro, guiro !
Con la mentira se puede
ser mentiroso, convÃene
Ser mentiroso conviene
por eso es que a mà me quieren
cuando yo voy a la fiesta
siempre me encuentro mujeres
Si se ponen con bobera
yo boto a todas las mujeres
No le doy más guaniquiqui
que se vayan si ellas quieren
Con la mentira se puede
ser mentiroso, convÃene
! Vaya no me digan que yo soy !
! Oye tú sabes que ahora estoy sabroso ...
Oye, que rico estaba el lomo de puerco
! Cómo, come 'Puntillita!
Senores tengo que ir
a ver a dos o tres doctores
porque tengo unos dolores
que no me dejan vivir
Cuando me acuesto a dormir
me duele la rabadilla
la quijada, la rodilla
Me da punzadas un pulmón
y para más salación
padezco de pesadillas
Todo eso me ha pasado
por decir las mentirillas
? Oye, ustedes se han creido
que todo eso que dije es verdad ?
! Pues, mira que no !
Ser mentiroso conviene
! Oye conviene !
A mà si que me conviene ...
Con eso gano gauniquiqui ,,,
Si yo no fuera mentiroso ...
No tomara agua de pozo ...
Porque eso si me conviene ...
! Bueno familia, Goodbye !

(spoken)
O.K. I want you all to know that
my lies will carry on in '96
(Chorus)
Don't say anymore liar,
don't say anymore
Once I fancied going out so I
went fishing
(What I'm about to sing
isn't one of my lies...)
With a rope
I bagged a caiman
Out on the open sea
I pricked him on the belly
And what do you think I saw?
I found a horse
Sleeping in his stomach!
Down on the Guaracha farm
(and this isn't a lie either)
I planted a coconut tree
That yielded sugar beet
There was also a cockroach
That yoked my cattle
And next to the Jaguey tree
I planted a rodents tail
Where a colourful fruit tree
(Chorus)
Don't say anymore, liar,
don't say anymore
I've seen a singing goat,
A tight-rope walking turkey
A crab playing basketball
And a swimming cat
I've seen a dog dancing
To the rhythm of the guaguanco
A cow born with an elephant's tusk
But I have never seen a singer
Who tells more lies than me
It only takes lies to be a liar,
that makes sense
It makes sense to be a liar,
that's why the love me
I always find women at parties
But if they start misbehaving
I forget the lot of them
They won't get another penny out of me
It's up to them to leave
It only takes lies to be a liar,
that makes sense
come on don't tell me I'm a....
hey you know I'm warming up now...
Hey the pork was delicious.
look how Puntillita eats!
Sirs I must visit
a couple of doctors
because I'm suffering from unbearable pains
whe I go to bed my coccyx,
my jaw and my knee all hurt.
I've got stabbing pains in one lung,
and to add to my bad luck
I'm having nightmares
and all tnis,
just because of my little lies
Hey, can you believe
that all I just said was the truth?
Of course not !¨
My lies make sense
Listen it makes sense
It's useful
That's how I earn my dough
If I wasn't a liar
I wouldn't make a living
that's why it makes sense to me
O.K., family 'Goodbye'
