I.O.U. (Abecedario 7)

La pronunciación de las letras I.O.U.
suena igual que la pronunciación de la frase -I owe you-
Traduciendo lo que dice el vaso:

Yo te debo... Todo (Everything).


También podrías decir:

Tu me debes un 'Yo te la debo'...
You owe me an 'I.O.U.'




He was in the habit of taking things for granted, granted
there wasn't much for him to take
And the only thing constant
Was the constant reminder he'd never change

Tight fisted with his compliments, it didn't seem to bother him
that talk is even cheaper told in bulk
And the only thing constant
Was the constant reminder He'd never change



And so she yelled at him:

You owe me an IOU
Owe me an IOU
You owe me an IOU
Don't think that I'll forget

You owe me an IOU
Owe me an IOU
You owe me an IOU
Don't think that I'll forget
I know what I should get this time

She was in the habit of reapplying makeup, makeup
Eaten up by crocodile tears
And the only thing constant
was the constant reminder she'd never change

Overtly individual - covertly traditional
She couldn't seem to make up her mind
And the only thing constant
Was the constant reminder she'd never change

And so he yelled at her:

You owe me an IOU
Owe me an IOU
You owe me an IOU
Don't think that I'll forget

You owe me an IOU
Owe me an IOU
You owe me an IOU
Don't think that I'll forget
I know what I should get
this time
(yeah!)

Oh...What is it real?
I don't know
But, I'll act as if it is

What's the deal?
I don't know
But, I'll act as if it is
What I think that it is
If it is, then this might just work

They were in the habit of taking things for granted, granted
They never quite knew what they had
And the only thing constant
was the constant reminder they'd never change

And so they yelled out loud:

You owe me an IOU
Owe me an IOU
You owe me an IOU
Don't think that I'll forget

You owe me an IOU
Owe me an IOU
You owe me an IOU
Don't think that I'll forget
I know what I should get
Yeah I know what I should get
This time.
