El Canape

by José Palomino (d. 1810)

Canción picaresca
 (Sung text for setting by J. Palomino)
 Matches base text

Language: Spanish (Español) 
Un canapé he comprado 
esta mañana,
y me ha contado 
todo lo que pasaba
con su dueña primera,
que era madama de cierto cortejante 
muy cortejada.

No solo quien descubre 
son las criadas,
pues hasta los asientos 
todo lo parlan.
Mi canapé me ha dicho 
todas las faltas y sobras 
que había en la otra casa,
lo que dicen y hacen 
galán y dama.
Y en especial 
si encima de él se sentaban.

Yo voy a referiros 
lo que pasaba
entre aquel currutaco 
y su madama.
Mas como ya es hoy tarde,
lo haré mañana.
