Lyrics & Translation

[English]

-Wow! I can't believe what was supposed to be a one-night stand

turned into three weeks together.

-[ Chuckles ]

Yes, I'm also having trouble believing that.

-So, I've been thinking.

My lease is up. Your lease isn't.

So I could either be homeless or

perhaps there's another arrangement?

-Like you... get another apartment?

-Oh, um, I'm sorry. This is kind of awkward,

but you're kind of sitting at our table.

-Your table?

The bar area is first that got here, first that will be served.

-Um, okay.

Well, we've been coming here every Friday

for the past three weeks, and this is where we sit,

right, baby?

-Oh, right.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Baby, they got here first.

-Babe, this is our special table. They need to move.

-[ Sighs ] Ay, dios mio, baby.

Let's just go.

Maybe I go to my apartment,

and you go to any place that's different than that.

-No way, no way.

We're not just gonna leave because they told us to.

Say something. Defend my honor.

-Okay. I got this, baby. I got this.

Hey! -Hey.

-[ Speaking Spanish ]

-That's right. He's about to beat your ass.

-[ Speaking Spanish ]

-You hear that? He's gonna go loca on you.

-[ Crying ]

-Oh, so now you're making my man cry?

Let me tell you something in a way you can understand.

[ Speaking Spanish ]

-What?! -Mm-hmm. You heard me.

[ Speaking Spanish ]

-Baby, baby, baby, baby. You are not making any sense.

-You're not the only one who can speak Spanish, bitch.

I used to work at Chipotle.

Listen to me closely. [ Speaking Spanish ]

-Damn, they're really going at it over there.

-Yeah. I feel like I'm watching a telenovela.

-Yeah, I hope they do that thing where

they slap each other and kiss.

-Wait. What? -Yeah, you know,

in every novela, there's a slap-and-kiss.

You see, in their culture, the line between

passion and violence is paper-thin.

-Oh!

-Baby, please, come over here. Do not listen to this woman.

I'm gonna protect you. -Oh, yeah?

You better protect her, because I'm about to...

[ Speaking Spanish ]

-Baby, baby, baby, you're talking about asparagus.

Let me handle this, okay?

[ Speaking Spanish ]

-Yeah! [ Speaking Spanish ]

[ Conversing in Spanish ]

[ Both laugh ]

-I'm sorry. Wait. Why are you two laughing?

What did you just say? -Uh...

I said, uh...

there's no reason to fight

and they make a great couple

and he never -- he should never let her go.

-Aww!

Really? That's sweet.

Baby, let's get out of here and go back to your place,

'cause tonight, I'm gonna give you...

[ Speaking Spanish ]

-Okay, baby. Let's go.

-Hmm. Okay.

Well, maybe we can learn a little something from them.

So tonight, I'm gonna give you...

[ Speaking Spanish ]

-You had me at "tetas."

-Wow. Wow. -Wow. Wow.

Would you look at that? -It's like they always say.

[ Speaking Spanish ]
