[English]

Oh Shakira, this afternoon I ended up with a non-gypsy guy who's totally weird

Who thinks he's Nicky Jam

Basically, he wants to go to the beach in the middle of January

This kid is out of his mind

Anyway, I'm heading to your house, baby

Because I'm out of joints

And this guy smokes more than a horny divorcee

I'll see you later, babe, love you

I met a little Gypsy girl (Sultana)

I was looking on Palmilla's Tinder (La palma)

I'm taking her to Mesón Montilla tonight

So she can eat fried eggs with blood sausage (on her chin)

(Oh)

She is the definition of hot

She farts in a puddle and kicks up a cloud of dust (obviously)

She's Galadriel, and I'm an Orc from Mordor

She tells me about the tattoo on her arm, and I tell her about the Koldo case

(Oh)

I'm in love with her "akai"

I spend all day thinking about my Yumalai (love you)

She gets me so hard I look like Tao Pai Pai's trunk

Dry joint, Dubai chocolate (guaranteed)

(Oh)

I even check her likes

More annoying than Chiqui Ibai's dad (how tiring)

I met up with her at Plaza Uncibay

She is my Arwen, and I look like an Uruk-Hai

She has magic in her eyes

A silver trail

And I just have more of a double chin

I camouflage my receding hairline

When she speaks, everyone goes silent

She lights up a joint at the beach

She looks at me seriously and says

"TikTokers are such clowns"

And they're such clowns

They're such clowns

Fabiana Sevillano (Who even is that?)

What a total clown

And Marina Rivers (BLOCK HER NOW)

Another total clown

And I'm even more of a "payo"

Than combing with a side part

I'm more "payo" than a Book Club

Than buying a Hummel tracksuit

Than a Monday at Dunnes Store

More "payo" than watching Dune

Than a documentary about tuna fishing in the Azores

Than eating a pussy with all the swagger of Antonio Ozores

Than going to the Duty Free to buy two Toblerones

More "payo" than calling hashish to a police officer

Than going to Los Caños on vacation with BBTrickz

Olé!

I'm more "payo" than a Labubu

Than putting lettuce in a durum wrap

Than buying a kilo of Sugus

More "payo" than saying "uwu"

Than getting a Cthulhu tattoo on my leg

More "payo" than watching League of Legends

Than buying an Xbox on Wallapop (without a controller)

Than waiting in line at Comic-Con

Than meeting up at Champions Burger

And starting to make TikToks

She has magic in her eyes

A silver trail

And I just have more of a double chin

I camouflage my receding hairline

When she speaks, everyone goes silent

She lights up a joint at the beach

She looks at me seriously and says

"TikTokers are such clowns"

They're such clowns

They're such clowns

Sofía Surfers

What a total clown

And Lola Lolita

Another total clown

And I'm even more of a "payo"

Than combing with a side part

I can't take it anymore

I want to be Gypsy

I can't take it anymore

I don't want to be a "payo" anymore

To have forty siblings (so many)

To have forty siblings

Wanillo, we have to be more Gypsy than we already are

Seriously... how do we do it?

There must be a higher degree for that at the unemployment office

That... will require a lot of paperwork, or...?

I don't know, man

She has magic in her eyes

A silver trail

And I just have more of a double chin

I camouflage my receding hairline

When she speaks, everyone goes silent

She lights up a joint at the beach

She looks at me seriously and says

"TikTokers are such clowns"

They're such clowns

They're such clowns

Look at Bellido

What a total clown

And Lia Sikora

Another total clown

But I'm even more of a "payo"

Than combing with a side part

When she speaks, everyone goes silent

She lights up a joint at the beach

She looks at me seriously and says

"The

Ha

Yow

Los Diozes

More "payo" than yesterday

But less than tomorrow

JULAIS!

[Spanish]

Ay Shakira, esta tarde he quedao' con un payo to' rabúo

Que se cree Nicky Jam

Total, que él quiere ir a la playa estando en enero

Este chaval está monguer

Bueno, que voy pa' tu casa nena

Que no me queda porro

Y este fuma más que un divorciao' cachondo

Ahora te veo gordi, te quiero

He conocío' a una gitanilla (Sultana)

Estaba buscando en el Tinder de la Palmilla (La palma)

La voy a llevar esta noche al Mesón Montilla

Pa' que coma huevos fritos con morcilla (en la barbilla)

(Oh)

Es la definición de morbo

Se pega un peo' en un charco y levanta polvo (claramente)

Ella es Galadriel, yo un orco de Mordor

Me habla del tatu de su brazo, y yo del caso Koldo ("corrustos")

(Oh)

Enamorao' de sus "akai"

Estoy to' el día pensando en mi Yumalai (te quiero)

Me pone el nabo como el tronco de Tao Pai Pai

Porro de dry, chocolate Dubái (en garantía)

(Oh)

Le reviso hasta los likes

Más pesado que el padre de Chiqui Ibai (qué fatiga)

He quedao' con ella en la Plaza Uncibay

Ella es mi Arwen, yo parezco un Uruk-Hai

Tiene magia en la mirada

Una estela plateada

Y yo tengo más papada

Me camuflo las entradas

Cuando ella habla, todos callan

Se lía un petardo en la playa

Me mira seria y me dice

"Las Tiktokers son mu' payas"

Y son mu' payas

Son mu' payas

Fabiana Sevillano (¿esa quien és?)

Qué pedazo de paya

Y Marina Rivers (BLOQUÉALA YA)

Otra pedazo paya

Y yo soy más payo

Que peinarse con la raya (el fueguito ¿qué significa?)

Soy más payo que el Círculo de Lectores

Que comprarse un chándal Hummel

Que un lunes en el Dunnes Store

Mas payo que verse Dune

Que un documental de pescar atunes en Las Azores

Que comerse un coño con to' el flow de Antonio Ozores

Que entrar al Duty Free pa' comprarse dos Toblerones

Mas payo que decirle hachís a una placa polen

Que irme a los Caños con BBTrickz de vacaciones

¡Olé!

Soy más payo que un Labubu

Que echarle lechuga al durum

Que comprarme un kilo de Sugus (del Belros)

Mas payo que decir "uwu"

Que hacerme un tatu en la pierna de Cthulu (qué lache)

Más payo que ver el LOL (qué peste)

Que comprarme la XBox por Wallapop (sin mando)

Que hacer cola en Comic-Con

Que quedar en la Champions Burger

Y ponerme a hacer Tik-Toks

Tiene magia en la mirada

Una estela plateada

Y yo tengo más papada

Me camuflo las entradas

Cuando ella habla, todos callan

Se lía un petardo en la playa

Me mira seria y me dice

"Las Tiktokers son mu' payas"

Son mu' payas

Son mu' payas

La Sofía Surfers

Qué pedazo de paya

Y la Lola Lolita

Otra pedazo paya

Y yo soy más payo

Que peinarme con la raya

Ya no puedo más

Yo quiero ser gitano

Ya no puedo más

Ya no quiero ser payo (payo)

Tener cuarenta hermanos (una pechá)

Tener cuarenta hermanos

Wanillo, tenemos que ser más gitanos de lo que ya somos

De verdad... ¿cómo lo hacemos?

Eso tiene que haber un grado superior en el SEPE

Eso... hará falta papeleo fuerte, o...?

No sé, eh

Tiene magia en la mirada

Una estela plateada

Y yo tengo más papada

Me camuflo las entradas

Cuando ella habla, todos callan

Se lía un petardo en la playa

Me mira seria y me dice

"Las Tiktokers son mu' payas"

Son mu' payas

Son mu' payas

No veas la Bellido

Qué pedazo de paya

Y la Lia Sikora

Otra pedazo paya

Pero yo soy más payo

Que peinarse con la raya

Cuando ella habla, todos callan

Se lía un petardo en la playa

Me mira seria y me dice

Los Diozes

Mas payos que ayer

Pero menos que mañana
