Lyrics

De tal palo, tal astilla
De tal suerte, barranquilla
Tá llorando, tá que arde
Tá diciendo, puta madre.
Tata mío que no me deja respirar
Igual aprendo solo
Chato, mato si, pa´ comer y pa´ zafar
Paco, fino y rolo
No te sientas, maravilla
De tal palo, tal astilla
Pasa macho, hijo 'e tigre
Mala pata, pero libre.
Cuál mi bandera
La linda o la fea
Cuál es amigo
Cuál es contigo.
Cuál es hermano
Sos un fulano.
No me grites, no me jodas
No me gustan ya tus bromas
Tá de fiesta, tá clavado
Tá escapando, tá pirado
Tata mío que no me deja respirar
Igual aprendo solo
Chato mato si, pa´ comer y pa´ zafar
Paco, fino y rolo
No te metas, con la gente
Que está toda de la mente
Que son todos, clandestinos
Que está lleno de asesinos.

Lyrics translation

Of such a stick, such a splinter
Such luck, barranquilla
You're crying, you're burning
You're saying, God damn it.
My nanny who won't let me breathe
I still learn by myself
Chato, mato si, PA eat and PA zafar
Paco, fino y rolo
Don't sit down, wonder
Of such a stick, such a splinter
Pass macho, son 'e tigre
Bad leg, but free.
Which my flag
The pretty one or the ugly one
What is friend
Which is with you.
Which is brother
You're a guy.
Don't yell at me, don't fuck with me
I don't like your jokes anymore.
You're partying, you're nailed.
You're getting away, you're crazy.
My nanny who won't let me breathe
I still learn by myself
Chato mato si, PA eat and PA zafar
Paco, fino y rolo
Don't mess with people.
That's all of the mind
They're all clandestine.
It's full of killers.
