LA CHICA PERFECTA Lyrics in English Aitana , Fangoria
Disimular means "to hide" or "to conceal," but it's specifically used for hiding your true feelings or intentions. It's a powerful verb that captures the pressure to pretend everything is okay when it's not.
In the song, Aitana asks the heartbreaking question, "¿Por qué disimular que todo está bien si no está bien?" (Why hide that everything is okay if it's not okay?). This word is at the core of the song's message about the struggle of maintaining a perfect image.
La Chica Perfecta pairs Aitana’s bright Spanish pop with Fangoria’s electro flair to explode the myth of the flawless woman: the protagonist looks like a 10 de 10—always polished, always smiling—yet inside she is crushed by anxiety and exhaustion from being everyone’s ideal. The song flips the camera to reveal her secret tears, her dread of simply stepping outside, and her fury at belonging to others when she should belong only to herself. With the defiant hook “Ella no quiere ser la chica perfecta”, she rejects the demand to mask bad weeks with a good face, to dress impeccably while feeling miserable, and to stay silent about mental health. Gossip about her style changes, weight, or rumored surgery no longer matters; she finally owns her body, her choices, her happiness. Under the irresistible beat, Aitana and Fangoria serve a liberating anthem that urges listeners to dance away society’s rules and embrace messy, authentic self-love.
