Pa' Que Sepan Como Soy
Abran cancha... y no se atoren que hay pa' todos y tupido,
Tome nota la gilada que hoy da cátedra un varón,
Y aunque nunca doy consejos, porque no soy engrupido,
Quiero batir mi prontuario... pa' que sepan cómo soy.
No me gusta ser ortiva, ni nací pa' lengua larga,
Y aunque me apure la yuta sé callar en la ocasión,
No le doy bola a los grasas que me miran y se amargan,
Conservando la distancia sé engrupir con distinción.
En la timba soy ligero, yo nací pa'l escolaso,
No se afane la muñeca cuando sobra calidad,
Yo conozco muchos vivos que cayeron en el lazo,
El que liga y se embalurda se deschava sin pensar.
Pa' las pilchas soy de clase
Siempre cuido mi figura,
Para conquistar ternuras
Hay que fingir posición.
Yo conozco bien el fato
Para mí el chamuyo es juego
Lo bato sencilio y reo
Pa' que sepan cómo soy.
Sé muy bien que entre los buscas hay algunos que me chivan,
Y me quieren dar la cana por envidia o por rencor,
Pero para mí no hay contra, los dejo tragar saliva,
Son borrados que no corren, son bagayos de ocasión.
Con guita, cualquiera es vivo, son anzuelos los canarios.
La cuestión es ser un seco y que te llamen señor;
Yo la voy de bacanazo, mas si junan mi prontuario
Sabrán que soy sin más vueltas... ¡un porteño flor y flor!
So They Know How I Am
Make way... and don't get stuck because there's enough for everyone,
Take note, the fools who today are being schooled by a man,
And even though I never give advice, because I'm not a con artist,
I want to lay out my record... so they know how I am.
I don't like being a party pooper, I wasn't born to gossip,
And even if the cops rush me, I know how to keep quiet when needed,
I don't pay attention to the losers who look at me and get bitter,
Keeping my distance, I know how to charm with class.
In gambling, I'm quick, I was born for the hustle,
Don't rush your hand when there's quality to spare,
I know many smart guys who fell into the trap,
The one who wins and gets cocky exposes himself without thinking.
When it comes to clothes, I have style
I always take care of my appearance,
To win over hearts
You have to pretend to have status.
I know the game well
For me, sweet talk is a game
I play it cool and smooth
So they know how I am.
I know well that among the snitches there are some who rat me out,
And they want to bust me out of envy or spite,
But for me, there's no competition, I let them swallow their words,
They're losers who don't stand a chance, they're just opportunistic scum.
With money, anyone can act smart, canaries are bait.
The key is to be sharp and be called sir;
I act like a big shot, but if they check my record
They'll know that without a doubt... I'm a true Buenos Aires native!
