Cosas Moradas Lyrics in English Ginebras

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cosas Moradas by Ginebras from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Tinky Winky is feminist
He likes Milka chocolate
I'm heading to Taco Bell in a Cabify
The Vinalopó grape
He voted for the left like me
Ursula doesn't f*ck with Ariel anymore
Chorus 1
Purple things
Glitter on the face
Purple things
Here's another typical song
Purple things
Glitter on the face
Purple things
Here's another typical song
Verse 2
On metro line nine
Prince and Elizabeth Taylor ride
Monica's wall saw us burn
Republican and contemporary
You like the smell of lavender
You choose the color that you want to be
Chorus 2
Purple things
Glitter on the face
Purple things
Here's another typical song
Purple things
Glitter on the face
Purple things
Here's another typical song
Bridge
A bruise, Holy Week
Five hundred euros to buy myself Tampax
In Monsters Inc., the bad guy is Randall
Lactose-free products for Juls and Sandra
Clothes dyed purple
Eggplant and beetroot
The sofa cover in our house
Trancas and Barrancas
Chorus 3
Purple things
Glitter on the face
Purple things
Here's another typical song
Purple things
Glitter on the face
Purple things
Here's another typical song
Outro
Purple things, purple things
Purple things
It reminds me of Putochinomaricón

SONG MEANING

Cosas Moradas is a riotous love letter to the colour purple, a hue that in Spain often symbolises feminism, queer pride and progressive politics. Ginebras string together a stream of purple-tinted images – from Tinky Winky’s handbag to lavender perfume – to celebrate everything bold, playful and unconventional. The chorus knowingly calls itself “otra típica canción”, yet the track is anything but typical: its indie-pop guitar hooks and glittery references invite listeners to paint the world in their own shade of morado.

As the lyrics hop from Cabify rides to Taco Bell, from Prince on the metro to Elizabeth Taylor’s iconic eyes, the song becomes a pop-culture bingo card sprinkled with political winks and everyday absurdities. By listing bruises, Semana Santa processions, lactose-free milk and 500-euro Tampax in the same breath, Ginebras poke fun at consumer quirks while championing freedom of choice and identity. The message is clear: whether you vote left, binge Pixar films or just love eggplant emoji, there is room for you in this sparkly purple universe.
