El Feo – El Mariachi De Román Palomar – mariachi song lyrics

Mariachi Lyrics Archive

El Feo

The most inclusive song about exclusion ever written. El Feo declares war on the ugly — and gets the whole room dancing.

About the Song

El Feo is a classic Mexican comic song that turns the mock-serious declaration of war on ugliness into an irresistible dance floor anthem. The humor depends entirely on performance — the more earnestly the singer delivers the absurd proclamation, the funnier and more beloved it becomes. Songs of this type belong to Mexico's rich picaresque folk tradition, where self-deprecating humor, physical comedy, and audience participation create a shared moment of joyful absurdity. El Feo is a crowd-participation staple at fiestas, weddings, and quinceañeras throughout Mexico.

Meaning of the Song

El Feo works because everyone in the room secretly suspects they might be the feo in question, and the only defense is to laugh the loudest. The declaration is so sweeping, so absolute, so magnificently unreasonable — let every single one of them die! — that it loops back around to pure affection. This is Mexico laughing at itself, at the human vanity that lurks in all of us, at the absurdity of caring so much about something so ridiculous. The ugliest thing about El Feo is how impossible it is not to dance to.

Lyrics / Letra

Que se mueran los feos

Que se mueran los feos
Que se mueran los feos
Que se mueran todititos, toditos
Toditos , toditos los feos

Que se mueran las feas
Que se mueran las feas
Que se mueran todititas, toditas
Toditas, toditas las feas

Yo, yo, yo no soy muy feo como nadie me quiere, ni modo también yo me voy a morir

Que se mueran los feos
Que se mueran los feos
Que se mueran todititos, toditos
Toditos , toditos los feos

Que se mueran los borrachos
Que se mueran los borrachos
Que se mueran todititos, toditos
Toditos, toditos los borrachos

Que se mueran las prietas
Que se mueran las prietas
Que se mueran todititas, toditas
Toditas, toditas las prietas

Yo, yo, yo no soy tan prieto como nadie me quiere, ni modo también yo me voy a morir

Que se mueran las prietas
Que se mueran las prietas
Que se mueran todititas, toditas
Toditas, toditas las prietas

Que se mueran los viejos
Que se mueran los viejos
Que se mueran todititos, toditos
Toditos, toditos los viejos

Que se mueran los mariachi
Que se mueran los mariachis
Que se mueran todititos, toditos
Toditos, toditos los mariachis

Yo, yo, yo no soy mariachi
Cómo nadie los quiere, ni modo
También se van a morir

Que se mueran los mariachi
Que se mueran los mariachis
Que se mueran todititos, toditos
Toditos, toditos los mariachis

English Translation

Let the ugly ones die

Let the ugly ones die
Let the ugly ones die
Let every single one of them die, all of them
All, all the ugly ones

Let the ugly women die
Let the ugly women die
Let every single one of them die...
