Cuando Elvis meneaba las caderas, las chicas no se meneaban de sus lugares delante de la tele.

When Elvis wiggled his hips, the girls wouldn´t budge from their spots in front of the TV.

íOye, Pepito! ¡Suéltalo ya! ¿No ves que el pobre perrito está meneando de esa forma porque no puede respirar?

Hey, Pepito! Let go of him right now! Can't you see that the poor dog is wiggling like that because he can't breathe?

Menea Más, Ladra Menos.

A veces, cuando ve como algunas personas actúan, solo puede manear su cabeza.

At times, when you see how some people act, you can only shake your head.
