Me dio una sirimba un domingo en la mañana
cuando menos lo pensaba
caí redondo, como una guanábana, sobre la alcantarilla
será la presión o me ha subido la bilirrubina
Y me entró la calentura
y me fui poniendo blanco como bola (d)e naftalina
me llevaron a un hospital de gente (supuestamente)
en la emergencia, el recepcionista escuchaba la lotería
(¡treinta mil pesos!)
¡alguien se apiade de mi!
grité perdiendo el sentido
y una enfermera se acercó a mi oreja y me dijo:
"tranquilo, bobby, tranquilo"
Me acarició con sus manos de ben gay y me dijo:
"¿qué le pasa, atleta?"
y le conté con lujo de detalles lo que me había sucedido
Hay que chequearte la presión
pero la sala está ocupada y, mi querido
en este hospital no hay luz para un electrocardiograma
Abrí los ojos como luna llena y me agarré la cabeza
porque es muy duro
pasar el niágara en bicicleta
No me digan que los médicos se fueronno me digan que no tienen anestesia
no me digan que el alcohol se lo bebieron
y que el hilo de coser
fue bordado en un mantel
No me digan que las pinzas se perdieron
que el estetoscopio está de fiesta
que los rayos x se fundieron
y que el suero ya se usó
para endulzar el café
Me apoyé de sus hombros como un cojo a su muleta
y le dije: "¿qué hago, princesa?"
y en un papel de receta me escribió muy dulcemente:
(mi princesa, ¿qué va a ser de mí?, uh...)
"lo siento, atleta"
Me acarició con sus manos de ben gay y siguió su destino
y oí claramente cuando dijo a otro paciente:
"tranquilo, bobby, tranquilo"
Bajé los ojos a media asta y me agarré la cabeza
porque es muy duro
pasar el niágara en bicicleta
No me digan que los médicos se fueron
no me digan que no tienen anestesia
no me digan que el alcohol se lo bebieron
y que el hilo de coser
fue bordado en un mantel
No me digan que las pinzas se perdieron
que el estetoscopio está de fiesta
que los rayos x se fundieron
y que el suero ya se uso
para endulzar el café
[improv.]
No me digan que me va cayendo
de tanto dolor
no me digan que las aspirinas
cambian de color
No me digan que me van pariendo
que le falta amor
no me digan que le está latiendo, oh no...
daaaaaaamn
Juan Luis Guerra Seijas, born in Santo Domingo on June 7, 1956, is a Dominican singer, musician, and composer considered one of the leading figures in Latin American music. Guerra has managed to blend traditional elements of Dominican music, such as merengue and bachata, with jazz and pop influences, creating an original sound he calls "mamborengue". His lyrics, often inspired by Christian faith and love for his homeland, are characterized by a touch of humor and irony. His musical career began in the 1970s with the group 440, but it was from the 1980s onwards that he achieved international fame thanks to albums like "Privé" (1985) and "Ojalá" (1992). Throughout his long career, Guerra has won 18 Grammy Awards in the Latin music category, solidifying his status as a legendary artist. Among his most famous songs are "Añoro tu presencia", "Visa para un sueño", "La bili" and "Bachata en Fukuoka".
