[English]

I have a problem

Waiting for you is a dilemma

Are you bad or are you good?

I don't know why these two

Are telling me you're not worth it (Oh, oh)

I have a problem

Waiting for you is a dilemma

Are you bad or are you good?

I don't know why these two

Are telling me you're not worth it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

I recognize those like you

They want to taste the honey

But they're not Winnie the Pooh

I saw you in the crowd

And your attitude caught my eye

Of those who are chasing you

They've been seen slowly

So, tell me

Are you one of those who wants a party or a movie?

Let's misbehave

Or do you want me to cross myself?

Tell me if it's love

Or if you want me to sponsor you

Get on all fours, to what I came for

Let's break a Guinness record (ha)

The last time at the hotel

There was a scandal

Everything got better

When the lights went out

We smoked so much of the good stuff

That it even ran out

It seemed like I fell in love

That Saturday, wow

I have a problem

Waiting for you is a dilemma

Are you bad or are you good?

I don't know why these two

Are telling me you're not worth it

I have a problem

Waiting for you is a dilemma

Are you bad or are you good?

I don't know why these two

Are telling me you're not worth it (Hahaha)

You are classy

But in bed, you're quite dirty

From Mexico to Russia

They didn't count on my cleverness

As Chapulín said

I'm unleashed this weekend

You have dolphin-like curves

I want to eat your behind

I'm the donkey's game

Come on, put the tail on me

You have a bad reputation and you look like

Danna Paola, you're really dr... dreaming

Baby, you are my owner

You say you dream of me

You added fuel to the fire

And let your hair down like Gloria Trevi

Since I saw you

I knew we were going to have a great time

Women are hitting on me

Dude, I feel like William Levy

Who told you I have money?

Come on, get in the Chevy

Some say they saw you over there a while ago

But I'm not here to judge you

I know that story

Keep moving because

You make me happy

The first one fast, the second one slow

I have a problem

Waiting for you is a dilemma

Are you bad or are you good?

I don't know why these two

Are telling me you're not worth it

I have a problem

Waiting for you is a dilemma

Are you bad or are you good?

I don't know why these two

Are telling me you're not worth it

(Yeah, Yeah) It's Davo (Haha)

From Monterrey (Yao)

How does it sound?

Eirian Music

Listen

What?

Let them talk (Yao, yao)

Let them criticize you (Okay)

You call me (Haha)

And I'll give you for your gum, baby (Muah)

[Spanish]

Tengo un problema

Esperarte es un dilema

¿Eres mala o eres buena?

Yo no sé por qué estos dos

Están diciéndome que no vales la pena (Oh, oh)

Tengo un problema

Esperarte es un dilema

¿Eres mala o eres buena?

Yo no sé por qué estos dos

Están diciéndome que no vales la pena (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Yo reconozco a las que son como tú

Quieren comerse la miel

Pero, no son Winnie Pooh

Te vi entre la multitud

Y me llamó tu actitud

De esos que andan detrás de ti

Se han visto con lentitud

Entonces, dime

Eres de las que quiere fiesta o cine

Vamos a portarnos mal

O quieres que me persigne

Dime si es amor

O si quieres que te patrocine

Ponte en cuatro, a lo que vine

Rompamos un récord Guinness (ja)

La última vez en el hotel

Se armó un escándalo

Todo se puso mejor

Cuando la luz se apagó

Fumamos tanto de la buena

Que hasta se acabó

Pareciera que me enamoré

Aquel sábado, chale

Tengo un problema

Esperarte es un dilema

¿Eres mala o eres buena?

Yo no sé por qué estos dos

Están diciéndome que no vales la pena

Tengo un problema

Esperarte es un dilema

¿Eres mala o eres buena?

Yo no sé por qué estos dos

Están diciéndome que no vales la pena (Jajaja)

Tú eres fina

Pero, en la cama eres bien sucia

De México a Rusia

No contaban con mi astucia

Como dijo el Chapulín

Ando desatado este fin

Tú tienes nalgas de delfín

Yo quiero comerte el culín

Soy el juego del burro

Anda, ven, ponme la cola

Tienes mala fama y te pareces a

Danna Paola, estás bien ri... sueña

Mamacita eres mi dueña

Dices que conmigo sueñas

Al fuego le echaste leña

Y suéltate la greña como Gloria Trevi

Desde que te vi

Supe que íbamos a pasarla heavy

Las mujeres me acosan

Cabrón, me siento William Levy

¿Quién te dijo que traigo dinero?

Anda, súbete al Chevy

Unos me dicen que te vieron por allá hace tiempo

Pero, no estoy pa' juzgarte

Yo me sé ese cuento

Síguete moviendo que

Me tienes contento

El primero rápido, el segundo lento

Tengo un problema

Esperarte es un dilema

¿Eres mala o eres buena?

Yo no sé por qué estos dos

Están diciéndome que no vales la pena

Tengo un problema

Esperarte es un dilema

¿Eres mala o eres buena?

Yo no sé por qué estos dos

Están diciéndome que no vales la pena

(Yea, Yeah) Es el Davo (Jaja)

Desde Monterrey (Yao)

¿Cómo suena?

Eirian Music

Escucha

¿Qué?

Déjalos que hablen (Yao, yao)

Que te critiquen (Okay)

Tú me llamas (Jaja)

Y yo te doy pa' tus chicles, mami (Muah)
