We Don't Talk About Bruno

We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no
We don't talk about Bruno
But...!

It was my wedding day (it was our wedding day)
We were getting ready
And there wasn't a cloud in the sky (no clouds allowed in the sky)
Bruno walks in with a mischievous grin (thunder)
You telling this story, or am I? (I'm sorry, mi vida, go on)
Bruno says, "It looks like rain" (why did he tell us?)
In doing so, he floods my brain (Abuela, get the umbrellas)
Married in a hurricane (what a joyous day, but anyway)

We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no
We don't talk about Bruno (hey)

Grew to live in fear of Bruno stuttering or stumbling
I can always hear him sort of muttering and mumbling
I associate him with the sound of falling sand (ch, ch, ch)
It's a heavy lift with a gift so humbling
Always left Abuela and the family fumbling
Grappling with prophecies they couldn't understand
Do you understand?

A seven-foot frame, rats along his back
When he calls your name, it all fades to black
Yeah, he sees your dreams and feasts on your screams (hey)

We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no (no, no)
We don't talk about Bruno (we don't talk about Bruno)

He told me my fish would die
The next day, dead (no, no)
He told me I'd grow a gut
And just like he said (no, no)
He said that all my hair would disappear
Now, look at my head (no, no)
Your fate is sealed when your prophecy is read

He told me that the life of my dreams
Would be promised and someday be mine
He told me that my power would grow
Like the grapes that thrive on the vine (óye, Mariano's on his way)
He told me that the man of my dreams
Would be just out of reach, betrothed to another
It's like I hear him now (hey sis)
I want not a sound out of you (it's like I can hear him now)
I can hear him now

Um, Bruno
Yeah, about that Bruno
I really need to know about Bruno
Gimme the truth and the whole truth, Bruno
Isabella, your boyfriend's here!
Time for dinner

A seven-foot frame (it was my wedding day, it was our wedding day)
Rats along his back (we were getting ready)
When he calls your name (and there wasn't a cloud in the sky)
It all fades to black (no clouds allowed in the sky!)
Yeah, he sees your dreams (Bruno walks in with a mischievous grin-)
And feasts on your screams (thunder!)
You telling this story, or am I?
I'm sorry, mi Vida, go on (óye, Mariano's on his way)
Bruno says, "It looks like rain" (why did he tell us?)
In doing so, he floods my brain
Married in a hurricane
He's here!

Don't talk about Bruno (why did I talk about Bruno?)
Not a word about Bruno
I never shoulda brought up Bruno!
