Scribbles on the calendar

They don't let me smoke in the room

I just want to erase my memory

The day I lost my youth

With those machines now

Sure they invented a

That returns me to Earth

Just the day I lost my youth

There is no witness to the moment of disappearance

I wish I could have it again with an injection

Today I returned to school door

To see if I still recognize it

I think they stole my innocence

The day I lost my youth

I'm going to smoke a cigarette

And in a bank I will cry

I visit the nostalgia remembering

That distant day I lost my youth

I need spring to come back

I need detoxification

They sell me a time machine

Or that gives me a stroke of luck

To be me again

How fast the planes fly

And how long does it take for progress

I dreamed that it was a girl and that it was flying

And playing hid my crowd

The suitcases are already at the door

I have nothing left to lose

I'm going to write a prophecy

And to recover the day I lost my youth

"EL DÍA QUE PERDÍ MI JUVENTUD" (The Day I Lost My Youth) is Nathy Peluso being dramatic about growing up, and it works. She is stuck in a room where "No me dejan fumar en la habitación" [They won't let me smoke in the room], and all she wants is to erase from memory the day her youth disappeared. Her fixes get more absurd as the song goes on: a machine to send her back, "una inyección" [an injection] to get it back, even "una máquina del tiempo" [a time machine].

The saddest bit is the quietest. She goes back to her old school gate "Para ver si aún la reconozco" [To see if I still recognise it], then sits on a bench to cry with a cigarette. Look out for valijas, the Argentine and River Plate word for suitcases (most of the Spanish-speaking world says maletas). By the end she has nothing left to lose and decides to write a prophecy and win that day back.
