Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Baby, what happened? Tell me if you want them to kick you out

I'll take you to the mall, you know I'm not a window shopper

I'm a trapper, I'll buy you the chocolate Sky-Dweller

If you have a little boyfriend, tell him to pack up

Six figures in the bank account

And my neck is iced out (ah, ah)

It's not that I'm overrated, it's just my natural swagger

I saw you and said "wow"

It got hard, and I was even sitting down

When I see you, we're gonna do a couple of rounds

A bad bitch, she asks me to put it in, understand?

She's my little dog, I don't let her off the leash (ah)

I give it to her a cappella, without the beat

Mama, you're hacked, you have a glitch

You're made to be in music videos and strike poses

Ma, with you even in the car

Take this dick so you can flush it back there

I smoke a Philly and get the munchies

Down there is sweet like a dessert

Double D breasts, that big ass (ay)

Mama, if we're in Madrid, I can be your Mbappé (ah-ah)

If we're in Barcelona, I can be your Lamine (yeh, yeh)

If we're in PR, I'm your Bad Bunny (woh-oh)

Dei V, The Flavor (Dei V)

If we're in Madrid, I can be your Mbappé (oh-oh)

If we're in Barcelona, I can be your Lamine (ah-ah, ah)

If we're in PR, I'm your Dei V (yeh, yeh)

The Flavor, baby, Letty's son

Six figures in the bank account

And my neck is iced out (ah, ah)

It's not that I'm overrated, it's just my natural swagger

I saw you and said "wow"

It got hard, and I was even sitting down

When I see you, we're gonna do a couple of rounds (Dei V, under water)

She wants loud weed, the kind that kicks like kung-fu

I'm not hungry, I'll eat if you're on the menu

Ma, you're hot, but it's not from the flu

Lit up like the cherry of the Backwood

With that ass you won me over, you make me spend

A baby like you, mama, isn't shared

After the party, the after-party is in my bed

Take off your clothes and pose for me to photograph you

Baby, what happened? Tell me if you want them to kick you out

I'll take you to the mall, you know I'm not a window shopper

I'm a trapper, I'll buy you the chocolate Sky-Dweller (woh-oh)

If you have a little boyfriend, tell him to pack up

Mama, if we're in Madrid, I can be your Mbappé (ah-ah)

If we're in Barcelona, I can be your Lamine (yeh, yeh)

If we're in PR, I'm your Bad Bunny (woh-oh)

Dei V, The Flavor

If we're in Madrid, I can be your Mbappé (oh-oh)

If we're in Barcelona, I can be your Lamine (ah-ah, ah)

If we're in PR, I'm your Dei V

The Flavor, baby, Letty's son (Letty)

Baby, what happened? Tell me if you want them to kick you out

I'll take you to the mall, you know I'm not a window shopper

I'm a trapper, I'll buy you the chocolate Sky-Dweller

If you have a little boyfriend, tell him to pack up

Una bad bitch, me pide que le meta, capisce

Key Grammar Structures

• Dime si tú quieres que te saquen

  ➔ Subjunctive mood after verbs of will/desire (querer que) and impersonal/passive 'se'.

  ➔ The verb 'quieres' (you want) expresses a desire, which triggers the subjunctive mood for the following verb '"saquen"' (they take out/you get taken out). The '"te"' with '"saquen"' indicates an impersonal action directed at 'you' or a passive action.

• Si tiene' un jevito, dile que empaque

  ➔ Conditional clause (Si + present indicative, imperative + que + subjunctive) and colloquial verb form.

  ➔ '"tiene'" is a colloquial contraction of 'tienes' (you have), commonly used in informal speech. The conditional 'Si tiene'' sets up a condition, followed by an imperative 'dile' (tell him) which then requires the subjunctive '"empaque"' (he packs) after 'que'.

• No es que esté cotizao, es naturola el tumbao

  ➔ Subjunctive mood after 'no es que' (it's not that...) and colloquial past participle.

  ➔ The phrase 'no es que' (it's not that...) always triggers the subjunctive mood, as seen with '"esté"' (it is). '"cotizao"' is a colloquial form of the past participle 'cotizado' (valued/highly sought after).

• Cuando te vea, vamo' a echar par de rounds

  ➔ Subjunctive mood in future temporal clauses ('Cuando' + subjunctive) and colloquial contraction of 'vamos a'.

  ➔ When 'Cuando' refers to a future action, it typically requires the subjunctive mood, as seen with '"vea"' (I see). '"vamo'" is a common colloquial contraction of 'vamos' (we go) in 'vamos a' (we are going to).

• Mami, tú estás hackeá, tiene' un glitch

  ➔ Use of past participle as an adjective (conjugated with 'estar') and colloquial contractions.

  ➔ '"hackeá"' is a colloquial form of 'hackeada' (hacked), functioning as an adjective describing a state or condition, used with 'estás' (you are). '"tiene'" is a colloquial contraction of 'tienes' (you have).

• Toma este bicho pa que allá atrá' lo flushee'

  ➔ Imperative mood, colloquial 'pa que' (para que) + subjunctive, and informal pronunciation.

  ➔ 'Toma' is an imperative (take). '"pa que"' is a very common colloquial abbreviation of 'para que' (in order that/so that), which always requires the subjunctive mood, as seen with '"flushee'" (you flush/flushes). '"atrá'" is colloquial for 'atrás'.

• Mami, si 'tamo en Madrid, puedo ser tu Mbappé

  ➔ Conditional clauses with present indicative for future possibility and colloquial verb contraction.

  ➔ In Spanish, the simple present '"tamo"' (colloquial for 'estamos', we are) can be used in 'si' clauses to refer to future hypothetical situations, followed by a verb in the present tense (puedo ser) or future tense. This is a common way to express future possibilities.

• Ella quiere mafú, de esa que patea como kung-fu

  ➔ Relative clause introduced by 'de esa que' (that kind/type that...)

  ➔ The phrase '"de esa que"' is used to specify a particular type or characteristic of the preceding noun ('mafú'). It acts like a descriptive relative clause, meaning 'of the kind that...' or 'that which'.

• Tú hace' que gaste

  ➔ Causative structure 'hacer que' + subjunctive and colloquial verb form.

  ➔ The construction '"hace' que"' (colloquial for 'haces que', you make that...) is a causative verb phrase meaning 'to make someone do something'. It always requires the subjunctive mood for the following verb, '"gaste"' (I spend).

• Una baby como tú, mami, no se comparte

  ➔ Impersonal/passive 'se' construction.

  ➔ The '"se"' here indicates either an impersonal statement (one does not share...) or a passive voice (is not shared), where the agent performing the action is not specified or is irrelevant.
