La ROSALÍA (uh)
Rosas sin tarjeta
Se la’ mando a tu gata
Te la tengo con roleta
No hizo falta serenata
The ROSALÍA (uh)
Roses without card
I send them to your car
I have it on a roll with you
No serenade was needed
Salgo y suena balacera (ey)
Me visto de cualquier manera
En Nueva York visitando a mi joyero
Solo quiere cash, yo le doy mi dinero
I go out and it sounds like shooting (ey)
I dress however I want
In New York visiting my jeweller
He only wants cash, I give him my money
Pa’ ti, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Tu gata quiere maki, mi gata en Kawasaki
Quiero una cadena que me arruine to’a la cuenta
Como Naomi en lo’ 90
For you, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Your kitten wants maki, my kitten in Kawasaki
I want a chain that ruins my entire account
Like Naomi in the 90s
Rosas sin tarjeta
Se la’ mando a tu gata (ey)
Te la tengo con roleta
No hizo falta serenata
Roses without card
I send them to your car
I have it on a roll with you
No serenade was needed
Pa’ ti, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Pa’ ti, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Pa’ ti, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Tu gata quiere maki
(Mi gata en Kawasaki)
Quiero una cadena que me arruine to’a la cuenta
Como Julio en los 70
For you, 泣, chicken teriyaki
For you, 泣, chicken teriyaki
For you, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Your kitten wants maki
(My kitten in Kawasaki)
I want a chain that ruins my entire account
Like Naomi in the 90s
Un billete, dos billetes, una tienda de billetes
La más dura que le mete
En Nueva York patinando pa’ los Heights
To’as mis domis saben la que hay, hey
Y sí, la fama es una condena
Pero dime otra que te pague la cena
Me están tirando sombras como drag queen
Chula como Mike Dean
One bill, two bills, a shop of bills
The harder he puts it
In New York skating by the Heights
All my domis know that it’s there, hey
And yes, fame is a damnation
But tell me another who pays for your dinner
They’re throwing shade like drag queen
Cool like Mike Dean
Rosas sin tarjeta
Se la’ mando a tu gata
Te la tengo con roleta
No hizo falta serenata
Roses without card
I send them to your car
I have it on a roll with you
No serenade was needed
De azúcar la mami, todo sin recibo
Leo pentagramas, pero no lo’ escribo
Desde Queens hasta Tribeca
Un ramo de flores azules no se seca
Of sugar mama, everything without a receipt
I read pentagrams, but I don’t write them
From Queens till Tribeca
A bouquet of blue flowers doesn’t dry up
Pa’ ti, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Pa’ ti, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Pa’ ti, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Tu gata quiere maki
Mi gata en Kawasaki
For you, 泣, chicken teriyaki
For you, 泣, chicken teriyaki
For you, 泣, chicken teriyaki
Your kitten wants maki
My kitten in Kawasaki
