Una cucaracha pinta

le dice a una colorada...

I tried everything, including the RAE dictionary. Pinta as an adjective is either nonexistent or irrelevant. Judía pinta certainly exists, but its etymology is uncertain.

Meanwhile, the context suggests some kind of appearance... And after all, the song hasn't been created by eggheads. Must be something familiar to any Mexican, at least. What is it?
