Andrea Original Lyrics by Bad Bunny

Intro

(Eh-ah)
Quiero alguien que se atreva

Verso 1

4 de la mañana y Andrea saliendo de La Perla
Mucho’ la critican sin conocerla
Calle como un Civic, inteligente como un Tesla
Soñando con alguien que pueda comprenderla
Y no quiera cambiarla, solo quererla, ey, solo quererla
De la IUPI pa’ la Inter, de la Inter pa’ Sagrado
Equivocándose de amore’ en lo que llega el indicado
Quiere quedarse en PR, no irse pa’ ningún estado
Pero todo se ha complicado
Como si ser mujer fuera un pecado
La demonia ha despertado, ey
Una guerrera, Juana de Arco, temperamental, Niurka Marco’
A la buena, beso y abrazo
A la mala, botellazo sin soltar el vaso
Le gustaba el basquet, leer “Tú” y hacerse lazo’
Pero de esa niña solo quedan pedazo’
Se ha buscado un par de caso’
Por no aguantarle chiste’ a ningún payaso, ey
Mírala cómo camina
Lo que le falta e’ la tarima
Cansada de esperar propina y de lo que su familia opina
Pa’ colmo ahora el gobierno la llama “asesina”
Una diva campesina
Chico, quédate en tu esquina, ey
Y no pida rosa’ si no aguanta’ espina’, no

Coro: Buscabulla

No quiero que nadie me diga lo que yo tengo que hacer
Se ponen a hablar y conmigo verán, no van a joder
Que digan lo que sea
Yo subo y bajo como la marea
Se tratan de montar y tambalean
Quiero alguien que se atreva, que se atreva
Y me entienda a mí

Verso 2

Una loca que no quiere un loco
Quiere vino tinto y sushi de Yōko
Días de playita, helado de coco
Se merece tanto y recibe tan poco
La mai reza por un doctor, ingeniero
Y ella con bichote’ y rapero’
Mi prima dice que e’ un cuero
Y lo que nadie sabe es que a su corazón le hace falta un suero (Eh-ah)
Chinga cabrón, se comenta
Y aunque la ven jangueando toda la semana, no se ve contenta, no
Lo malo siempre se sabe y lo bueno nunca se cuenta
Joseando pa’ la renta, llorando más de la cuenta
No hay mujer sin herida’ ni hombre que no mienta
Ey, ella no quiere una flor, solo quiere que no la marchiten
Que cuando compre pan, no le piten
Que no le pregunten qué hizo ayer
Y un futuro lindo le inviten
Que le den respeto y nunca se lo quiten
Que le den respeto y nunca se lo qu—
Que-Que le den respeto y nunca se lo quiten
No, nunca se lo quiten
Porque ella es jefa, patrona
Y aunque casi casi por dentro se desmorona
Se acicala y se ve cabrona
Se acicala y se ve cabrona
La vida va como Verstappen en Formula 1
Y Buddy Baker en Daytona, ey
Andrea, sé tú y que se mamen un bicho las persona’

Coro

No quiero que nadie me diga lo que yo tengo que hacer
Se ponen a hablar y conmigo verán, no van a joder
Que digan lo que sea
Yo subo y bajo como la marea
Se tratan de montar y tambalean
Quiero alguien que se atreva, que se atreva
Y me entienda a mí

Outro

Hablan mierda y yo lo encuentro funny, funny
Sigo mis sueños y buscando ese money
Que no hay money, que no hay money
Y yo sigo buscando ese honey, ese honey
Pa’ bailar
Que digan lo que sea

English Lyrics of The Song Andrea

Intro

(Eh-ah)
I want somebody who dares

Verse 1

4 A.M. and Andrea is leaving La Perla
They criticize her a lot without knowing her
Street smart like a Civic, book smart like a Tesla
Dreaming of somebody who can comprehend her
And who doesn’t want to change her, just love her, aye, just love her
From the IUPI to the Inter, from the Inter to Sagrado
Choosing bad lovers before the right one arrives
She wants to stay in PR and not go to any state
But everything has become complicatеd
As if being a woman was a sin
The devil has wokеn up, aye
A warrior, Joan of Arc, temperamental, Niurka Marco’
The good way: a kiss and a hug
The bad way: hitting with a bottle without dropping the glass
She liked basketball, reading “Tú,” and making bows
But there are only pieces left of that girl
She’s gotten in trouble a couple of times
For not taking jokes from any clown, aye
Look at how she walks, she’s just missing a stage
Tired of waiting for tips and of what her family says
To top it off, the government now calls her a killer
A country diva
Boy, stay in your own corner, aye
And don’t ask for roses if you can’t handle thorns

Chorus

I don’t want anybody to tell me what I have to do
They gossip, and with me, they’ll learn not to fuck around
They may say whatever they want
I go up and down like a tidal wave
They try to ride it and stumble
I want somebody to dare, to dare
To understand me

Verse 2

A crazy woman that doesn’t want a crazy man
She wants red wine and sushi from Yoko
Days at the beach, coconut ice cream
She deserves so much and receives so little
Her mother prays for a doctor, an engineer
And she only dates gangsters and rappers
My cousin says she’s a whore
And what nobody knows is that her heart is missing a rehydration serum (Eh-ah)
She fucks well, it is said
And even if she’s seen going out all week, she doesn’t look happy, no
Bad stuff is always known and what’s good is never told
Hustling herself to pay rent, crying more than what it is worth
There is no woman without wounds nor a man who does not lie
Aye, she doesn’t want a flower, just to not wither
To not get whistled at when she goes out to buy bread
To not be asked what she did yesterday
And to be invited to a nice future
To be given respect and for it to never be taken away
To be given respect and for it to never be take—
To be given respect and for it to never be taken away
No, for it to never be taken away
Because she’s the head chief, a boss
And even if she’s near crumbling down on the inside
She gets ready and looks fire
She gets ready and looks fire
Life goes by like Verstappen in Formula 1
And Buddy Baker in Daytona, aye
Andrea, be yourself and may people go suck a dick

Chorus

I don’t want anybody to tell me what I have to do
They gossip, and with me, they’ll learn not to fuck around
They may say whatever they want
I go up and down like a tidal wave
They try to ride it and stumble
I want somebody to dare, to dare
To understand me

Outro

They talk shit and I find it funny, funny
I keep chasing my dream and looking for money
There’s no money, there’s no money
And I’m still looking for that honey, that honey
Let’s dance
They may say whatever they want
