[English]

Right now I'm doing what I want, with the Balenciagas

And a good little powder to start the party

Let it dawn on us

Clase Azul, the little tequila, it doesn't ask me for anything

It doesn't ask me for anything and that makes me dizzy

It makes me dizzy

Bed and rope, the nose is cold

I fulfill you, girl, everything you want

You're looking good

Little pirate on one side, the little girl

The short skirt, beautiful the brunette

You're looking good

That's how Neto sounds

And the double P, girl

...

Two slaves on the wrist, the eyes droopy

From the white smoke and the scapular

I carry it daily

Lost the three calls, I don't know where I was

I had the phone without charge, she doesn't believe me at all

She doesn't believe me at all

Bed and rope, the nose is cold

I fulfill you, girl, everything you want

You're looking good

Little pirate on one side, the little girl

The short skirt, beautiful the brunette

You're looking good

...

[Spanish]

Ahorita ando como quiero, con los Balenciaga

Y un polvito bueno pa empezar la fiesta

Que nos amanezca

Clase Azul, el tequilita, no me pide nada

No me pide nada y eso me apendeja

Me apendeja

Cama y lazo, la nariz helada

Yo te cumplo, mija, todo todo lo que quieras

Tas bien buena

Piratita por un lado la plebita

La falda cortita, chula la morena

Ta bien buena

Así suena el Neto

Y la puta doble P, mija

Dos esclava' en la muñeca, los ojos tumbados

Por el humo blanco y el escapulario

Aquí lo traigo a diario

Perdidas las tres llamadas, no sé dónde estaba

Traía el cel sin carga, ella no me cree nada

Ella no me cree nada

Cama y lazo, la nariz helada

Yo te cumplo, mija, todo todo lo que quieras

Tas bien buena

Piratita por un lado la plebita

La falda cortita, chula la morena

Ta bien buena

Key Grammar Structures

• Ahorita ando como quiero, con los Balenciaga

  ➔ Adverbial phrase of manner (como quiero).

  ➔ The phrase "como quiero" expresses the manner in which the speaker is living at the moment. It means "as I want" or "how I want."

• Y un polvito bueno pa empezar la fiesta

  ➔ Use of "pa" (short for "para"). Informal shortening of prepositions.

  ➔ "Pa" is a colloquial shortening of "para" which means "in order to" or "to". It's very common in informal speech and song lyrics.

• Que nos amanezca

  ➔ Subjunctive mood with "que" expressing a wish or hope.

  ➔ The phrase "que nos amanezca" uses the subjunctive mood to express a wish that the party lasts until dawn. The "que" introduces the subordinate clause expressing the desire.

• Tas bien buena

  ➔ Shortened form of "Estás bien buena". Omission of the verb "estar" for brevity.

  ➔ The phrase is a compliment, meaning "you are very attractive." Dropping the "estás" is common in casual speech.

• Dos esclava' en la muñeca, los ojos tumbados

  ➔ Elision (apostrophe used to show missing letter): esclava' instead of esclavas.

  ➔ The apostrophe indicates that the 's' has been omitted from 'esclavas' to fit the rhythm and style of the song. It is a common phonetic reduction in informal speech and regional dialects.

• Por el humo blanco y el escapulario

  ➔ Use of "por" to indicate cause or reason (because of the white smoke).

  ➔ "Por" is used here to explain the reason why the speaker's eyes are "tumbados" (droopy, relaxed, or possibly high).

• Traía el cel sin carga, ella no me cree nada

  ➔ Imperfect tense (traía) to describe a past state or condition. Use of "nada" after negative "no" to reinforce the negation.

  ➔ The imperfect "traía" describes the ongoing situation: he *had* the phone without charge. The double negative "no me cree nada" means "she doesn't believe me at all."
