En El 2000 Lyrics in English Natalia , La Forquetina

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song En El 2000 by Natalia from Spanish to English.
In 2000 I look for men from Paris
Verse 1
A smart brain that doesn't get drunk on Friday
Nor a crazy fool that's slobbery
Nor an animal instinct that sex drives crazy
In 2000 women wear gray
Transparent straps, minds already more open
It drives us crazy, a bit ditzy
If they see Ricky Martin in magazines they cut him out
Chorus 1
But the planet spins, spins to the right
And every time the night is warmer
Without love it cools
I don't have a man, not even Gael García
I feel so empty
Let's see, let's see what happens the next day
Verse 2
In 2000 Martha is a worm
That doesn't stop staring, criticizing all the people
Splitting them, being racist
There are snobs, rich, poor, Mexicans and PANistas
In 2000 my sister is going to give birth
A growing cell from a hot relationship
And depressed, also resentful
She'll hate that human being that has gone and left her
Chorus 2
But the planet spins, spins to the right
And every time the night is warmer
Without love it cools
I don't have a man, not even Gael García
I feel so empty
Let's see, let's see what happens if I say
I'm no longer, I'm no longer the childish creature
The innocence is over
I'm no longer, I'm no longer the one of that strange body
Now feels the heart
I'm no longer, I'm no longer the childish creature
The innocence is over
I'm no longer, I'm no longer the one of that strange body
Now feels the heart
And let's see what happens the next day
What happens the next day
I'm no longer, I'm no longer the childish creature
The innocence is over
I'm no longer, I'm no longer the one of that strange body
Now feels the heart
And let's see what happens in the next
I'm no longer, I'm no longer
The childish creature the innocence is over
It's over
Chorus 2
I'm no longer, I'm no longer
The one of that strange body now feels the heart
What happens the next day

SONG MEANING

"En El 2000" feels like stepping into a time capsule set at the dawn of the new millennium, where Natalia turns a witty, side-eye lens on the expectations, contradictions, and social divides of modern Mexico. With playful name-drops (Ricky Martin, Gael García) and sharp observations about class, racism, and Friday-night party culture, she lists the kind of man she doesn’t want, calls out judgmental neighbors like “Martha la lombriz,” and watches her sister face single motherhood. All the while, the chorus reminds us that the planet keeps spinning, the nights grow colder without love, and everyone is still waiting to see “qué pasa en el siguiente día.”

Behind the humor lies a powerful coming-of-age declaration: “Ya no soy la infantil criatura… ahora siente el corazón.” Natalia sheds the innocence of childhood, embraces her own agency, and invites listeners to do the same. The song mixes social satire with personal awakening, leaving us dancing, thinking, and wondering what surprises the next day will bring.
