Lately my circle is doing well

I keep running to make it to the end of the month

But at the weekend I cry more than at the end of the year

I keep throwing words every Friday

But afraid of seeing you with him

And I'm jealous behind the ice in your glass

Ask me any day of the month

Go on, ask me, because all I know is

That I will be laughing and crying

remembering you

Sitting at the bar where I saw you

Drowning memories, damn the moment I fell for you

Laughing and crying without being able to sleep

In Paris, where we're sitting with our hearts racing, scared to death

Of sleeping knowing that you're not here

Laughing and crying

I hope it doesn't show that

I have joker syndrome

Every time I go out drinking I lose focus and

And I get the urge to hit you up

Because I always remember you, gorgeous; I always give in to you

At that moment, making out with you intensely

I see you traveling with him and that kills me

I can't move but my heart doesn't stop

Ask me any day of the month

Go on, ask me, because all I know is

That I will be laughing and crying

remembering you

Sitting at the bar where I saw you

Drowning memories, damn the moment I fell for you

Laughing and crying without being able to sleep

In Paris, where we're sitting with our hearts racing, scared to death

Of sleeping knowing that you're not here

Ask me any day of the month

Go on, ask me, because all I know is

That I will be laughing and crying

remembering you

Sitting at the bar where I saw you

Drowning memories, damn the moment I fell for you

Laughing and crying without being able to sleep

In Paris, where we're sitting with our hearts racing, scared to death

Of sleeping knowing that you're not here

celoso — jealous

Celoso means "jealous." While it's a common emotion, its placement in the lyrics makes it particularly striking and relatable.

The singer admits, "Y estoy celoso atrás del hielo de tu vaso" (And I'm jealous behind the ice of your glass). This vivid image of hidden jealousy, observing from a distance, adds a layer of intrigue and vulnerability to the song, making it more than just a simple declaration of emotion.

Abraham Mateo builds this song around one image: a guy at a bar, smiling on the outside while everything falls apart underneath. He names it outright in the second verse: "Que tengo el síndrome del joker" (I've got the Joker's syndrome). That line is the whole song, laughing in public with a wrecked person behind it.

The story is an ex he can't let go of. He pictures her with someone new, jealous of a man he only ever calls "él," and replays the relationship over a drink at the bar: "Ahogando recuerdos, maldito el momento que me dio por ti" (drowning memories, damn the moment I fell for you). The hook says it straight: "Riendo y llorando sin poder dormir" (laughing and crying, unable to sleep). It's not a metaphor bolted on top. That contradiction is the actual state he's describing for three minutes, and it's why the title works as a diagnosis rather than a mood.
