Verse 1
What happened
I'll tell you
Or: I tell you about it
Don't think that it didn't hurt
Or that I invent it
Or that I made it up
Like this it happened
I had my baby
It was something very special
But I became obsessed
With something that hurt him
Prechorus 1
Thousands of songs in my mind
And he noticed it
And he could see that
And he so many times told me
And I as if nothing
And I acted as if nothing had happened
Chorus 1
Fame is a bad lover
She won't love you truly
She isn't going to love you for real
She's too treacherous
And like she comes, she leaves you
Know that she'll be jealous
I'll never trust her
If you want sleep with her
But never get married
Verse 2
What happened
It has left me awake
It has left me sleepless
I can't even think anymore
Her blood boils
She always wants more
Her ambition stabs
In the chest sharp, it's the worst
Chorus 2
Fame is a bad lover
And she won't truly love me
She's too treacherous
And like she comes, she leaves me
I know that she'll be jealous
I'll never trust her
If I want I sleep with her
But I'm never going to marry her
Bridge
There's no way
That this obsession goes away
Goes away, disappears anymore
I still haven't learned the way
There's no way that it disappears
Chorus 3
Fame is a bad lover
She won't love you truly
She's too treacherous
And like she comes, she leaves you
I know that she'll be jealous
I'll never trust her
If I want I sleep with her
But I'm never going to marry her

Did you like this lyrics translation?
Puñaladitas — little stabs
"Puñaladitas" is the diminutive form of puñalada, which means "a stab". The literal translation is "little stabs" or "little backstabs".
In the song, ROSALÍA uses this unique word to describe the nature of fame's ambition. She sings, "Puñaladitas da su ambición" ("Its ambition gives little stabs"), powerfully illustrating how the desire for fame inflicts small, sharp, and constant emotional wounds. It's a memorable image of the painful side of celebrity.
