Pero me gusta verte andar en cueros
Al compás de tus pechos aventureros
Víctimas de la gravedad
Será porque no me gusta la tapicería
Que creo que tu desnudes
Es tu mejor lencería
Por eso es que me gustas tal y como eres
Incluso ese par de libras de más
Si te viese tu jefe desnuda y detrás
No dudaría en promover tu cintura
Deja llenarme de tu desnudes
Para afrontar los disfraces de afuera
De una mejor manera
Desnuda, que no habrá diseño que te quede mejor
Que el de tu piel ajustada a tu figura
Desnuda, que no hay un ingenuo que vista una flor
Sería como taparle la hermosura
Desnuda, que la naturaleza no se equivoca
Y si te hubiese querido con ropa
Con ropa hubieses nacido
Deja llenarme de tu desnudes
Para vestirme por dentro
Aunque sea un momento
Y ahora que por fin te tengo así
Desnuda y precisamente enfrente
Desnuda también un poquito la mente
Pon tus complejos junto de tu ropa
Y si te sientes un poquito loca
Ponte loca completa
Que verte será solo el inicio
Antes de perder el juicio
Desnuda, que no habrá diseño que te quede mejor
Que el de tu piel ajustada a tu figura
Desnuda, que no hay un ingenuo que vista una flor
Sería como taparle la hermosura
Desnuda, que la naturaleza no se equivoca
Y si te hubiese querido con ropa
Con ropa hubieses nacido
Deja llenarme de tu desnudes
Para vestirme por dentro
Aunque sea un momento
Aunque sea un momento
Aunque sea un momento
