El joven se estremece

Jonathan Richman
Música y Letra: Jonathan Richman


...we don't have time to applaud now, no, no we got to go. We got to go directly to the whorehouse and I gotta because, it's because... I've got to explain it to you cause the song is going be in Spanish because when I say "El joven se estremece", the young man is shaking, he's trembling, he's not happy about this situation. "Con gotas de sudor", he's got a cold sweat happening, his, his friends took him to the whorehouse cause he was 19, they figured this would be funny, let's introduce him to sex this way, he's not buying it at all, he thinks this is terrible. "La fila no le apetece", this line of woman doesn't appetize him one bit. "Si no le causa gran dolor", just making him sad, but I thought it made a nice song, you see.

En la sala es fumada, (the smokey room)
que atrevida la mujer (the woman's got a lot of nerve).
Y con su risa carcajada (she got a nasty laugh too)
el joven no sabe qué hacer.

El joven se estremece
con gotas de sudor.
La fila no le apetece
si no le causa gran dolor.

Pues sus amigos
le traen una bebida, (friend's bringing him a drink)
pero sus ojos buscan
la salida (he wants out).

Él rechaza sus abrazos
y sus caricias sin querer.
Él se replega unos pasos (he's retreating, he's backing up).
No le gusta esa mujer.

El joven se estremece
con gotas de sudor.
La fila no le apetece
si no le causa gran dolor.

Pues sus amigos borrachos
hacen risotadas (his drunken friends think this is funny),
las mujeres en la fila
hacen carcajadas (the prostitutes don't have a bit either).

El joven se estremece
con gotas de sudor.
La fila no le apetece
si no le causa gran dolor.

El joven se estremece
con gotas de sudor.
La fila no le apetece
si no le causa gran dolor.
