[English]

They were roars

Dry crete

So they respect, so they respect

All the bad stuff they bring, whip it

All the leather decked out with rings

And I’m not to blame if your stuff is a mess

So they respect, so they respect

All the bad stuff they bring, whip it

All the leather decked out with rings

And I’m not to blame if your stuff is a mess

It’s a mockery

So they respect, so they respect

All the bad stuff they bring, whip it

All the leather decked out with rings

And I’m not to blame if your stuff is a mess

So they respect, so they respect

All the bad stuff they bring, whip it

All the leather decked out with rings

And I’m not to blame if your stuff is a mess

[Spanish]

  ➔ The verb **"Fueron"** is the third‑person plural past simple of *ser*, used here as a predicate noun meaning “they were roars”.

• pa' que pa' que respite

  ➔ Contraction *pa' que* = *para que* (purpose clause)

• Todo lo malo que saquen lo fuete

  ➔ Relative clause with *que* + present subjunctive (expressing doubt/indefinite)

• To' lo cuero enchado con arete

  ➔ Colloquial omission of *todo* → *to'* (phonetic spelling) and past participle used as adjective

• es una burla

• Todo lo malo que saquen lo fuete

  ➔ Demonstrative *todo* + noun + relative clause; emphasis with repetition
