Mujer Contra Mujer Lyrics in English by Mecano
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mujer Contra Mujer by Mecano from Spanish to English.
Nada tienen de especial
Nothing special about them
Dos mujeres que se dan la mano
Two women holding hands
El matiz viene después
The nuance comes later
Cuando lo hacen por debajo del mantel
When they do it under the tablecloth
Luego a solas sin nada que perder
Then alone with nothing to lose
Tras las manos va el resto de la piel
After the hands, the rest of the skin follows
Un amor por ocultar
A love to hide
Aunque en cueros no hay donde esconderlo
Although in the nude there's nowhere to hide it
Lo disfrazan de amistad
They disguise it as friendship
Cuando sale a pasear por la ciudad
When it goes out for a walk in the city
Una opina que aquello no está bien
One thinks that it's not right
La otra opina que que se le va a hacer
The other thinks, "What can be done?"
Y lo que opinen los demás está de más
And what others think is irrelevant
Quien detiene palomas al vuelo
Who stops pigeons in flight
Volando a ras de suelo
Flying close to the ground
Mujer contra mujer
Woman against woman
No estoy yo por la labor
I'm not up for
De tirarles la primera piedra
Throwing the first stone at them
Si equivoco la ocasión
If I mistake the moment
Y las hallo labio a labio en el salón
And find them lip to lip in the living room
Ni siquiera me atrevería a toser
I wouldn't even dare to cough
Si no gusto ya se lo que hay que hacer
If I'm not liked, I know what to do
Que con mis piedras hacen ellas su pared
With my stones, they build their wall
Quien detiene palomas al vuelo
Who stops pigeons in flight
Volando a ras de suelo
Flying close to the ground
Mujer contra mujer
Woman against woman
Una opina que aquello no está bien
One thinks that it's not right
La otra opina que que se le va a hacer
The other thinks, "What can be done?"
Y lo que opinen los demás está de más
And what others think is irrelevant
Quien detiene palomas al vuelo
Who stops pigeons in flight
Volando a ras de suelo
Flying close to the ground
Mujer contra mujer
Woman against woman
Quien detiene palomas al vuelo
Who stops pigeons in flight
Volando a ras de suelo
Flying close to the ground
Mujer contra mujer
Woman against woman
