[English]

I'm not the romantic type, but with you, honestly, I messed up

...

I was acting crazy, while you even wanted a damn honeymoon

...

There were never flowers, roses, or serenades; I barely changed

Always messing around, but you couldn't take it anymore

When I'd come home smelling like another woman

I don't know how to love the way you want me to

You descended from heaven, and I'll never go there

Those private photos, who's going to take them now?

That ass was mine, and it's not coming back

...

Another drinking binge, more calls that she doesn't want to answer

Another all-nighter, this damn hangover is going to drive me crazy

You two look cute, but you wish that guy were me

You can replace me, but you can't forget me, not even in another life

I don't know how to love the way you want me to

You descended from heaven, and I'll never go there

Those private photos, who's going to take them now?

That ass was mine, and it's not coming back

...

[Spanish]

Yo no soy romántico, pero contigo, neta, la cagué

Por andar de loco, y tú querías hasta puta luna de miel

Nunca hubo flores, rosas, serenatas, yo poco cambié

Siempre en mi desmadre, más ya no aguantaste

Que llegara oliendo a otra piel

Así como tú quieres, yo no sé querer

Tú bajaste del cielo y pa allá nunca iré

Las fotitos privadas, ¿quién te las tomará?

Ese culito fue mío y ya no volverá

Otra borrachera, otras llamadas que no quiere responder

Otra amanecida, ya esta cruda maldita me va a enloquecer

Se miran bonitos, pero quisieras que fuera yo ese güey

Puedes reemplazarme, pero no olvidarme, ni volviendo a nacer

Así como tú quieres, yo no sé querer

Tú bajaste del cielo y pa allá nunca iré

Las fotitos privadas, ¿quién te las tomará?

Ese culito fue mío y ya no volverá

Key Grammar Structures

• Yo no soy romántico, pero contigo, neta, la cagué

  ➔ Preterite tense of irregular verb 'cagar' (slang)

  ➔ The speaker uses the "cagué" (first person singular) to admit a past mistake definitively.

• Siempre en mi desmadre, más ya no aguantaste

  ➔ Adverbial usage of 'ya no' for cessation

  ➔ The phrase "ya no" expresses that the action of "aguantaste" (tolerating) has reached its limit in the past.

• Así como tú quieres, yo no sé querer

  ➔ Comparative clause with 'como' and subjunctive mood

  ➔ The subjunctive "quieres" (or implied structure) establishes a contrast between the partner's ideal and the speaker's inability.

• Tú bajaste del cielo y pa allá nunca iré

  ➔ Future tense (indicative) for hypothetical outcomes

  ➔ The speaker uses the future "iré" to declare a firm intention/prediction about never reaching the metaphorical "heaven".

• Las fotitos privadas, ¿quién te las tomará?

  ➔ Direct and indirect object pronouns combined

  ➔ The clitics "te" (indirect) and "las" (direct) function together to refer to "the photos" for "you".

• Ese culito fue mío y ya no volverá

  ➔ Preterite vs. Future (indicative)

  ➔ Contrasts "fue" (completed past action) with "volverá" (negated future action).

• Puedes reemplazarme, pero no olvidarme

  ➔ Modal verb 'poder' + infinitive structure

  ➔ Using the modal verb "puedes" (you can) creates a possibility that is then immediately restricted by "pero".

• ni volviendo a nacer

  ➔ Gerund construction for hypothetical conditions

  ➔ The gerund "volviendo" is used here as a conditional-like adverbial clause meaning "even if you were born again".
