We Don’t Talk About Bruno Lyrics

Pepa: We don’t talk about Bruno, no, no, no
We don’t talk about Bruno, but
It was my wedding day

Félix: It was our wedding day

Pepa: We were getting ready
And there wasn’t a cloud in the sky

Félix: No clouds allowed in the sky

Pepa: Bruno walks in with a mischievous grin

Félix: Thunder!

Pepa: You telling this story or am I?

Félix: I’m sorry, mi vida, go on

Pepa: Bruno says, “It looks like rain”

Félix: Why did he tell us?

Pepa: In doing so, he floods my brain

Félix: Abuela, get the umbrellas

Pepa: Married in a hurricane

Félix: What a joyous day but anyway

Both: We don’t talk about Bruno, no, no, no
We don’t talk about Bruno

Dolores: 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?

Camilo: 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)

All: We don’t talk about Bruno, no, no, no (We don’t talk about Bruno, no, no!)
We don’t talk about Bruno (We don’t talk about Bruno)

Señora Pezmuerto: He told me my fish would die, the next day, dead (No, no)

Osvaldo: He told me I’d grow a gut and just like he said (No, no)

Priest: He said that all my hair would disappear, now, look at my head (No, no)

All: Your fate is sealed when your prophecy is read

Isabela: 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

Alma: Óye, Mariano’s on his way

Dolores: 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

Isabela: Hey sis, I want not a sound out of you

Dolores: It’s like I can hear him now, I can hear him now

Mirabel: Um, Bruno
Yeah, about that Bruno
I really need to know about Bruno
Gimme the truth and the whole truth, Bruno

Camilo: Isabela, your boyfriend’s here

All: Time for dinner

All: A seven-foot frame, rats along his back (It was my wedding day, it was our wedding day )
When he calls your name it all fades to black (We were getting ready and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky)
Yeah, he sees your dreams and feasts on your screams (Bruno walks in with a mischievous grin)

Óye, Mariano’s on his way
Bruno says, “It looks like rain” (He told me that the man of my dreams would be just out of reach)
In doing so, he floods my brain (Betrothed to another, another)
Married in a hurricane (And I’m fine, and I’m fine, and I’m fine, I’m fine)

He’s here
Don’t talk about Bruno, no

Mirabel: Why did I talk about Bruno?

All: Not a word about Bruno

Mirabel: I never shoulda brought up Bruno

We Don't Talk About Bruno song Dolores and Mirabel singing and dancing
