about

Másqueperra (a Silvia, Mamen y Gloria) / More than a lady dog (to Silvia, Mamen and Gloria ) - Las tres Masqueperras surcaban la noche en busca de aventuras, armadas de "una muda limpia, un cepilllo de dientes y una botella de ron en la guantera". "A todos los sitios menos a casa" era su lema; el mundo enmudeció ante sus hazañas. / The three More-than-a-lady-dogs sailed through the night looking for adventure, armed with "a clean change of clothes, a toothbrush and a bottle of rum in the glove compartment". "Everywhere except home" was their motto; the world was struck dumb by their feats.

lyrics

Eres más que una perra, Másqueperra eres tú
Eres más que una perra, Másqueperra eres tú
Y el gato que te maúlle aún no ha visto la luz

Siete vidas tiene un gato, y tu tienes más de cien
Siete vidas tiene un gato, y tu tienes más de cien
Por mucho que tropieces siempre caes de pie

Aullándole a la luna, huyendo del sol
Aullándole a la luna, huyendo del sol
Te encontrará la noche nadando en mares de ron

-----------------------------------

You're more than a lady dog, you're a more-than-a-lady-dog (*)
You're more than a lady dog, you're a more-than-a-lady-dog
And the cat that will meow you has not seen the light of day yet

Cats have seven lives and you have more than one hundred
Cats have seven lives and you have more than one hundred
No matter how much you stumble, you always fall on your feet

Howling at the moon, fleeing the sun
Howling at the moon, fleeing the sun
Night will found you swimming in seas of rum

(Quote: "Másqueperro" is an untranslatable pun based on the phonetic similarities between the words "mosquetero" ("musketeer") and "más que perro" (more than a dog). Feminine is used because the song is about a woman; therefore the slang word "bitch" has been carefully avoided.)
