I know that we are young,
And I know that you may love me,
But I just can't be with you like this anymore,
Alejandro

She's got both hands
In her pocket
And she won't look at you
Won't look at you
She hides true love
En su bolsillo
She got a halo around her finger
Around you

You know that I love you boy
Hot like Mexico, rejoice
At this point I gotta choose
Nothing to lose

Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Alejandro
I'm not your babe
I'm not your babe, Fernando

Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch
Just smoke my cigarette and hush
Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Roberto

Alejandro
Alejandro
Ale-ale-jandro
Ale-ale-jandro

Alejandro
Alejandro
Ale-ale-jandro
Ale-ale-jandro

Stop, please,
Just let me go Alejandro,
Just let me go

She's not broken
She's just a baby
But her boyfriend's like a dad, just like a dad
And all those flames that burned before him
Now he's gonna fire fight, gotta cool the bad

You know that I love you boy
Hot like Mexico, rejoice
At this point I've gotta choose
Nothing to lose

Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Alejandro
I'm not your babe
I'm not your babe, Fernando

Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch
Just smoke my cigarette and hush
Don't call my name
Don't call my name, Roberto

Alejandro
Alejandro
Ale-ale-jandro
Ale-ale-jandro

Alejandro
Alejandro
Ale-ale-jandro
Ale-ale-jandro

Don't bother me,
Don't bother me, Alejandro
Don't call my name,
Don't call my name, bye, Fernando
I'm not your babe,
I'm not your babe, Alejandro
Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch,
Fernando

Don't call my name,
Don't call my name, Alejandro
I'm not your babe,
I'm not your babe, Fernando
Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch
Just smoke my cigarette and hush
Don't call my name,
Don't call my name,
Roberto

Alejandro
Alejandro
Ale-ale-jandro
Ale-ale-jandro

Alejandro
Alejandro
Ale-ale-jandro
Ale-ale-jandro

Don't call my name,
Don't call my name, Alejandro
I'm not your babe,
I'm not your babe, Fernando
Don't wanna kiss, don't wanna touch
Just smoke my cigarette and hush
Don't call my name,
Don't call my name, Roberto

Alejandro

    My Interpretation:The song is pretty easy to figure out. It's about a girl who has a guy that loves her, but she doesn't love him back, but he won't give her up. So, she's telling him to leave her alone and to let her go.

    Song Meaning:I think that this song is supposed to be the previous story from the birth of Jesus (pbuh) I am Muslim. And I believe that Jesus (pbuh) was neither been crucified nor resurrected. We believe that he was taken to the 7th sky.

    the 'Alejandro' should represent Christian GOD (not Allah)
    I don't know who is Fernando
    But the little girl should be you-know-who
    Roberto is as what Christians believe the holy spirit

    Now, help yourself

    General Comment:I thought the song was about an abusive relationship. " Just smoke my cigarette and hush" - relating to her keeping the abuse a secret . She stays because she loves him. She just cant seem to help falling for the bad guy , reminiscing about her previous bad boy lovers " Fernando" and " Roberto". She even compares him to her father.

    General Comment:Hahahahaahahahahaha! I love this song. Yeah, she basically decided to use mexican names and yah, I guess she's a bit of a player...and 3 dudes by the names Alejandro, Fernando, and Roberto all I guess have a thing for the Gaga, but she just kinda wants to be left alone

    Song Meaning:In the video she is seen wearing a outfit with christian crosses on. I think that she is a religious woman that fell in love with Alejandro but then he ditched her for a guy called Fernando and the fact Christians are against same sex partnership she goes against this as she still wants Alejandro back even though he is gay.

    General Comment:The woman is a major talent because, like Madonna in the 80's, Gaga goes all out. She's flamboyant; pushes the political/social envelope; is extremely creative; and she appears not to care what anyone thinks of her craft. I don't always agree with her lyrics, but she IS a superstar. She alone put her career in the spotlight. And after doing a little reading on her (because she has traveled quite a distance from her Catholic upbringing when it comes to her songs), I learned that the woman actually gives a lot to charitable causes, unlike MOST musicians; actors; and all those Hollywood rich people who want to bury us in big govt and high taxes. LOTS of respect here for Gaga, even though I have to shake my head at some of her lyrical choices:)

    General Comment:All of her songs promote Gay supremacy. Destroying social norms is cool, it's edgy. Soon you'll all be tolerant of bestiality and cannibalism, after all, no one chooses to be that way.
