If you'd done to someone else
What you've done to me
This man would've killed you
And you wanna know why?
Because on this earth
Women like you
Shouldn't exist for a man
Honest like me
Woman
You're a bad woman
You've made these eyes cry
Tears and shame
Woman
You're worse than a viper
You've poisoned my soul
I can't live anymore
Woman
You're sweet like sugar
But that angel face
You use it to cheat
Woman
You're the most beautiful woman
I love you and I hate you
I can't forget you
Woman
You're the most beautiful woman
I love you and I hate you
I can't forget you
I still love you
But you don't know why
Because the only love
You've been the only one for me
And you on a whim
You ruined everything, you know
But God won't forgive you
What you've done to me
Woman
You're sweet like sugar
But that angel face
You use it to cheat
Woman
You're the most beautiful woman
I love you and I hate you
I can't forget you
Woman
Woman

SONG MEANING

Picture the narrow, sun-soaked streets of Naples, where love can taste as sweet as sugar and sting sharper than a viper. In "Malafemmena" (Neapolitan for bad woman), Andrea Bocelli becomes the voice of a man who feels both enchanted and betrayed. He shines a light on a dazzling femme fatale whose angelic face hides a knack for deception, and from the first line he admits she has driven him to tears, rage, and desperate devotion.

The lyrics whirl between adoration and resentment. He praises her beauty and sweetness, yet accuses her of poisoning his soul and destroying their love out of sheer caprice. Even as he insists that God will never forgive the hurt she caused, he confesses he still loves her and cannot forget her. This clash of tenderness and bitterness is the heartbeat of the song, turning it into a classic portrait of Italian passion where love and hate dance dangerously close together.
