Spanish Lesson

Lyrics

Work (8x)

Yo te quiero means I love you
Mucho gusto means I'm welcome to you
Señorita, I just wanna fall in love
Callate means close your mouth
Besame means give me love
Señorita, she just wants to fall in love

Baby hurry up 'cause I cannot get enough
If you like my style I can love you for a while
Can you hear me call your name
Baby I'm onto your game

Digame means tell me baby
Yo soy loco means you drive me crazy
Señorita, I just wanna fall in love
Entiendo means I get it
Siempre means that I won't forget it
Señorita, she just wants to fall in love

Baby hurry up 'cause I cannot get enough
If you like my style I can love you for a while
Can you hear me call your name (hear me calling your name)
Baby I'm onto your game (I'm onto your game)
I just wanna fall in love (hear me calling your name)
Baby I can't get enough (come get it)

If you do your homework (work)
Baby I will give you more (work)
When you do your homework (work)
Get up on the dance floor (work)
If you do your homework (work)
Baby I will give you more (work)
When you do your homework (work)
Get up on the dance floor

Entiendo means I get it
Siempre means that I won't forget it

Can you hear me call your name (hear me calling your name)
Baby I'm onto your game (I'm onto your game)
I just wanna fall in love (hear me calling your name)
Baby I can't get enough (I'm onto your game)
Can you hear me call your name (hear me calling your name)
Baby I'm onto your game (I'm onto your game)
I just wanna fall in love (hear me calling your name)
Baby I can't get enough (come get it)

If you do your homework (work)
Baby I will give you more (work)
When you do your homework (work)
Get up on the dance floor (work)
If you do your homework (work)
Baby I will give you more (work)
When you do your homework (work)
Get up on the dance floor (work)

Album

Tour

With a "Habla Español?", Madonna starts her Spanish Lesson to the crowd. This lighthearted song was performed during the Gypsy segment of the Sticky & Sweet Tour. Dressed in a gorgeous black dress with colourful ribbons, designed by Givenchy, Madonna bumps and grinds her dancers who are all dressed up like monks. The screens show the silhouette of dancer Stella Angelova with the Spanish words flashing in whenever Madonna sings them. The end of the song turns Flamenco-style when a dancer does a solo with everyone else clapping, before smoothly flowing into Miles Away.

The song made a minor comeback on the MDNA Tour, where it was performed as a singalong interlude after the speech, but only at the shows in Mexico City, Medellin and Santiago, as a special treat to the Spanish-speaking crowd.

On the Rebel Heart Tour, it was played in Puerto Rico and Miami (2nd show) as part of the Latin / Gypsy Segment.
