about

“La Güerita” is Aliana’s second single introducing "The Entertainer," a concept EP that follows the rise and demise of an anonymous character on a desperate mission for success and celebrity. In the saga’s second chapter, The Entertainer gets his voice stolen by a wicked witch from the desert.

lyrics

LYRICS

Another long and lonely road
Blindly searching high and low
East to west, and west to Hell
Cast adrift by an evil spell

I didn’t know, I had no clue
When she walked into that room
If La Güerita stares at you
You’ve got your muse to lose

Güerita, please, where did you go
You stole my voice and I’m out of control
My throat is dry and my lips are burned
Güerita, please, I won’t let go
I’d rather you would’ve taken my soul
I’m begging you, I need your cure

She lit a smoke and drank for free
Watched the crowd from the Devil’s seat
We were on fire, the house ablaze
’Til I was struck by her wicked gaze

I didn’t know, I had no clue
When she walked into that room
If La Güerita stares at you
You’ve got your muse to lose

Güerita, please, where did you go
You stole my voice and I’m out of control
My throat is dry and my lips are burned
Güerita, please, I won’t let go
I’d rather you would’ve taken my soul
I’m begging you, I need your cure

She comes back in my dreams
In the heat and the light
Turns a drop into steam
And I’m in for the ride

And so this tune’s inside my head
Waiting for me to sing again
Until I do, I’ll just ramble on
Dive to dive and dusk ’til dawn

Güerita, please, where did you go
You stole my voice and I’m out of control
My throat is dry and my lips are burned
Güerita, please, I won’t let go
I’d rather you would’ve taken my soul
I’m begging you, I need your cure
