Lyrics

Alerta, que al que va en motocicleta ningun carro
lo respeta, y autobus?, mejor ni hablar!
Tranquilo, que cuando llegue la hora, si usted
no se descontrola, no nos lograrán prender.
Deje el nervio ya y concéntrese. Es muy tarde
para hecharse atrás. Se hace lo que se tiene que hacer
cuando ya no hay nada mas que hablar.
Recuerde, el color del auto es blanco, europeo y nuevecito,
y porta placa oficial. Son cinco, tres atrás, dos adelante;
nuestro hombre está en la foto que le acabo de enseñar.
Colóquese al lado del chofer y no piense en lo que va a pasar. No tenemos tiempo que perder:
arranque al oirme disparar.
Hoy cambiará la vida.
Hoy cambiará su vida.
Hoy cambiará mi vida.
Yo no sé si el tipo es bueno, o malo; solo sé que le tocó
perder. En el cielo está Dios, soberano: en la tierra,
la orden del cartel.
Espero que la ametralladora no vuelva a trabarse ahora,
como en el ensayo ayer.
Más tarde, después que cobre el trabajo lo invito
a tomarse un trago, no me vaya a despreciar.
Yo, por él, no siento compasión. Nunca en vida él hizo
algo por mí. Si es entre él y yo la selección,
no me dolerá verlo morir.
Hoy cambiará la vida.
Hoy cambiará tu vida.
Hoy cambiará mi vida.

Lyrics translation

Warning, that the one who goes on motorcycle no car
respect him, and bus? you'd better not!
Quiet, that when the time comes, if you
he won't get out of control, they won't get us arrested.
Stop the nerve now and concentrate. It's too late
to back off. You do what you have to do
when there's nothing more to talk about.
Remember, the color of the car is white, European and brand new,
and official badge holder. It's five, three behind, two ahead;
our man is in the picture I just showed him.
Stand next to the driver and do not think about what is going to happen. We don't have time to waste:
start when you hear me shoot.
Today will change life.
Today will change your life.
Today will change my life.
I don't know if the guy's good or bad; I just know he touched him.
lose. In Heaven Is God, sovereign: on Earth,
the sign order.
I hope the machine gun doesn't lock again now.,
like the rehearsal yesterday.
Later, after I get the job I invite him
have a drink, don't go scorn me.
I, for him, have no compassion. Never in life did he
something for me. If it's between him and me the selection,
it won't hurt to see him die.
Today will change life.
Today will change your life.
Today will change my life.
