[intro] [instrumental] [verse 1] She walks in the room At a reasonable speed No angels appear No one falls to their knees Ay, corazón Her dress is beige Her shoes are brown She doesn’t lift me up But she doesn’t bring me down She’s vanilla, stock A standard design And I look at her calmly Like, “This is probably fine” Sí, señorita Probably fine [pre-chorus] She’s not a dream from heaven She’s not a warning sign She’s somewhere in the middle And that is also fine Ay ay ay So very fine But not too fine [chorus] Oh, she’s adequate My ordinary queen Moderately lovely In a very neutral scene She’s satisfactory And that’s her kind of style She doesn’t drive me crazy No, she drives me mild Oh, mi amor You’re okay, okay, okay And I tolerate you In a manageable way Ay, mi vida Manageable, manageable [verse 2] She almost makes me smile Maybe once in a while A faint emotional flicker In a low-maintenance style Her touch is sometimes Somewhat okay Like the tickle of a fly That decides to walk away Ay, señorita So gently tolerable Her cooking is subtle Almost noticeable too Like a whisper in a cupboard Or a very pale stew Not bad, not good Not unforgettable art It enters the room And politely departs [pre-chorus] She’s not a feast of fire She’s not a grand buffet She’s more like plain crackers On an uneventful day Ay ay ay Plain crackers With a heart [chorus] Oh, she’s adequate My ordinary queen Moderately lovely In a very neutral scene She’s satisfactory And that’s her kind of style She doesn’t drive me crazy No, she drives me mild Oh, mi amor You’re okay, okay, okay And I tolerate you In a manageable way [bridge] Some men chase perfection A goddess in the rain I’ve chosen mild agreement And acceptable terrain No fireworks exploding No thunder in the sky Just two people sitting And letting evenings die She’s plain stock footage In a romantic file And somehow that’s enough To make me almost smile Ay, señorita Almost Almost [spoken interlude] Señorita… When I look at you I do not lose my breath But I continue breathing And that is important You are not fire You are not ice You are room temperature And sometimes… that is nice [final chorus] Oh, she’s adequate My ordinary queen Moderately lovely In a very neutral scene She’s satisfactory In a calm domestic style She doesn’t drive me crazy No, she drives me mild Oh, mi amor You’re okay, okay, okay And I tolerate you In a manageable way Ay ay ay Okay, okay, okay I tolerate you In a manageable way [outro] Mi amor… Corazón… Adequate forever Or at least for now [end]
