[Verse 1]
This excessive ambition
For all the women, cash, and fame so fickle
Is sucking my life away
So little by little by little
Oh, and now the press asks me
Puchito, what’s in your brain,
You can’t sing or play in tune
Still they listen to me all throughout Spain
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s a poison I carry inside me
It’s tucked deep in my blood
And someday it will kill me
Without even once having ever been loved
[Chorus]
I did it for you (that’s it)
I did it for you (that’s right)
I did it for you (I did it for you, boo)
I did it for you (let’s go, let’s go)
I did it for you (so that you’d see me)
I did it for you (so that you’d need me)
I did it for you
[Verse 2]
I was born a Bohemian
But your love it has changed me
And now I want to succeed
And to lead and go out on radio and tv
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s the cruelest of poisons you see
That you all keep on feeding
And someday it will kill me
While all of you look on unheeding
[Chorus]
I did it for you (that’s right)
I did it for you (that’s it)
I did it for you (that's all, for you)
I did it for you (so that you’d see me)
I did it for you
I did it for you
I did it for you
[Verse 3]
I still remember that starving kid
That you didn’t invite to the party
Before when I was innocent
Before, but back then I was nobody
And now I’m stuck partying all day
Just escaping on through
Trying my best to forget you
And dueling the memories that still brew
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s a poison I carry inside me
It’s tucked deep in my blood
And someday it will kill me
Without even once having ever been loved
It’s a poison I carry inside me
It’s tucked deep in my blood
And someday it will kill me
Without even once having ever been loved
[Chorus]
I did it for you (Rrra!)
I did it for you (Yeah)
I did it for you (that's all, for you)
I did it for you
I did it for you (so that you’d need me)
I did it for you (I did it for you, baby)
I did it for you (that's all, for you)
I did it for you
