Lyrics & Translation
Get out of the closet
Escape, take off your nail polish
Stop covering up, no one is going to take your picture
Get up, get hyper
Light it up, spark the starter
Ignite like a lighter
Shake off the sweat like you're a wiper
Because you're streetwise, "street fighter"
Change that serious face
That intellectual face, like an encyclopedia
I'm going to inject you with the bacteria
So you turn around like a carnival machine
Miss intellectual, I know you have
The abdominal area that's going to explode
Like a patron saint festival, it's going to explode
Like a Palestinian
I know you like Latin pop-rock
But reggaeton gets into your intestines
Under the skirt like a submarine
And brings out your Taino roots
You already know, in a thong, mama
In the name of Agüeybana
There's nothing more, I'm not going to lie to you
I know I also want to consume your parsley
And you came Amazonian like Brazil
You came to kill it like "Kill Bill"
You came to drink draft beer
You know you have a refill with me
Dare, dare, dare, dare
Get out of the closet, dare
Escape, take off your nail polish
Stop covering up, no one is going to take your picture
Get up, get hyper
Light it up, spark the starter
Ignite like a lighter
Shake off the sweat like you're a wiper
Because you're streetwise, "street fighter"
Hello, stop the show
Pull up your mini-skirt
Up to your back
Pull it up, stop the show, higher
Because now we're going to dance all night
Look, girl, do you want a sip?
It doesn't matter if you're a rapper or a hippie
If you're from Bayamón or Guaynabo city
Don't be picky with me
This is all the way down, take the tricky
This is easy, this is a piece of cake
What does it matter if you like Green Day?
What does it matter if you like Coldplay?
This is direct, non-stop, one-way
I swear to you that by law
All the Puerto Rican girls know karate
They cook with tomato sauce
They wet the rice with a bit of avocado
To harvest 14-carat butts
Dare, dare, dare, dare
Get out of the closet
Escape, take off your nail polish
Stop covering up, no one is going to take your picture
Get up, get hyper
Light it up, spark the starter
Ignite like a lighter
Shake off the sweat like you're a wiper
Because you're streetwise, "street fighter"
Dare, dare, dare, dare
Get out of the closet
Escape, take off your nail polish
Stop covering up, no one is going to take your picture
Get up, get hyper
Light it up, spark the starter
Ignite like a lighter
Shake off the sweat like you're a wiper
Because you're streetwise, "street fighter"
