Lyrics
(Si el amar libremente es pecado
He pecado libremente por amar?
«NA» mas fue ver la luz
Lo bautizaron de sinvergüenza
Sin camisita y sin canesu
Pero Manuel juega con muñecas
Nunca ha visto el cielo azul
Siempre tuvo indiferencia
Aunque con una inquietud
Vestía de blanco sus inocencias
No tuvo norte ni tuvo sur
Pero muy clara sus ideas
«NA» mas fue ver la luz
Y presagiaron su adolescencia
Que llevaría en esclavitud
Como castigo y penitencia
Amanerada su aptitud
La sociedad no le importaba si
Algún dia lo trataba
Con desprecio y con ausencia
Sin camisita y sin canesu
Pero Manuel juega con muñecas
ESTRIBILLO
Y que gracia le da
Ver señores que esconden tras la sotana unas
Ideas equivocadas
A la que enseño el señor
Le da vergüenza como imponen su doctrina
Crucifican a la vida y hablen en pos del amor
Es imposible que en el siglo veintiuno
Todavia guarden ayuno y vallan de antipecador
Mas le valdria un examen de conciencia
Vaya hacer que su excelencia
Sea «acusao» de dictador
«NA» mas fue ver la luz
Lo bautizaron de sinvergüenza
Manuel tiene los ojos puesto en su madre
Por que le da reparo hablar con su padre
Le da tanta penita
Que se entere que su niño
Ha cambiado de ser hombre
A ser un hermafrodita
Aunque no teme que la vida
Lo tache mariquita
«NA» mas fue ver la luz
Y sin reparo
Sabia que su cuerpo estaba equivocado
No busca culpable
Y señala con el dedo
Ni ha pedido explicaciones a algo
Que es inexplicable
Se mira ante el espejo
Y se siente invulnerable
ESTRIBILLO
Lyrics translation
(If loving freely is sin
Have I sinned freely for love?
"NA" but it was to see the light
They named him a scoundrel.
No T-shirt and no canesu
But Manuel plays with dolls
You've never seen the blue sky
He was always indifferent
Although with a concern
He wore his innocence in white
There was no North nor South
But very clear his ideas
"NA" but it was to see the light
And they foretold his adolescence
That would lead into slavery
As punishment and penance
Improved your fitness
Society didn't care if
One day I treated him
With contempt and absence
No T-shirt and no canesu
But Manuel plays with dolls
Chorus
And what Grace it gives him
See gentlemen who hide behind the cassock some
Misconceptions
To which the Lord taught
He is ashamed as they impose his doctrine
Crucify life and speak for love
It is impossible that in the Twenty-First Century
Still keep fasting and go to antipecador
But it would give him an examination of conscience.
Go make your Excellency
Be" accused " of dictator
"NA" but it was to see the light
They named him a scoundrel.
Manuel's eyes are on his mother.
Why does it make him feel bad to talk to his father?
He gives her so much penance
Let her know that her child
He's changed from being a man
To be a hermaphrodite
Although not afraid that life
The ladybug spots it
"NA" but it was to see the light
And without repair
I knew his body was wrong.
Not looking for guilty
And point your finger
He hasn't even asked for an explanation.
Which is inexplicable
You look in the mirror
And he feels invulnerable
Chorus
