Lyrics
Yo era el portero del edificio 32
Tú eras la burguesa, la princesa del penthouse
Asà lo quiso Dios
Te saludaba con mi cara de asustado
Mientras le pedÃa a Dios que se tapara el excusado
Para irte a echar un vistazo
O que te mandara al supermercado
Para ayudarte a cargar lo del mandado
Fui testigo mudo de tus fiestas y aventuras
Te conocà dos doctores, un maestro y hasta un cura
Y un dÃa viendo en la rendija
Vi como te merendabas al del 6
Mientras su mujer mojaba el negligé Estas acabando con el edificio
Chica del penthouse
Y con toda la ciudad
Estas acabando con el edificio
Chica del penthouse
Y conmigo por qué no?
Era de todos los dÃas esperar que den las 9
Ir al patio de atrás a esperar en la ventana
Tu baño de las mañanas
Que triste era ver aquella sombra al desnudarse
A 12 pisos de mis mejores ganas de tocarte
Pero que iba yo a hacer
Le daba chance a la imaginación
Mientras ya me retumbaba el corazón
Estas acabando con el edificio
Chica del penthouse
Y con toda la ciudad
Estas acabando con el edificio
Chica del penthouse
Y conmigo por que no?
Me he enamorado de usted
DÃgame ahora que hay que hacer
Fumo como un loco y dejado de comer
Le dije a quemarropa
Me dio una cachetada que me disloco el amor
Eso me pasa por querer darle a la vida el sabor
De una mezcla de clases
Y aunque sé que jamas podre besarla
No hay problema porque asà lo quiso dios
Lyrics translation
I was the doorman of building 32.
You were the bourgeois, The Princess of the penthouse
That's what God wanted.
I greeted you with my scared face
While he asked God to cover his toilet
To go take a look
Or send you to the grocery store
To help you load the errand
I was a silent witness to your parties and adventures
I met you two doctors, a teacher and even a priest
And a day watching in the crevice
I saw you snacking on the 6th.
While his wife was wetting the negligee, you're finishing up the building.
Penthouse girl
And with the whole city
You're killing the building.
Penthouse girl
And with me why not?
It was all day waiting for the 9 o'clock
Go to the backyard to wait at the window
Your morning bath
How sad it was to see that shadow undressing
12 floors from my best desire to touch you
But what was I going to do
It gave chance to the imagination
While my heart was already rumbling
You're killing the building.
Penthouse girl
And with the whole city
You're killing the building.
Penthouse girl
And with me why not?
I've fallen in love with you
Give me now what to do
I smoke like crazy and stopped eating
I told him at point blank range.
He slapped me that I dislocated Love
That's what happens to me for wanting to give life the flavor
Of a mix of classes
And though I know I'll never be able to kiss her
No problem because God wanted it
