She came out, uncontrolled

It came, it burned the room

I saw her, with my eyes

Of a crazy woman in love

And it is that

It was inevitable to approach him and I had to tell him

It's that everything about you kills me

I see it moving in my mind and I can't fall asleep

Dembow addict

Also reggaeton

I have her dancing on the floor

She is Maniac, dancing maniac

And she dances it like she never danced before

She is Maniac, dancing maniac

And she dances it like she never danced before

She does not go out if she is not with the V.I.P bracelet

To' look at her, but she only has eyes for me

During the day she goes to uni and at night to the disco

Sweat every drop of alcohol from San Francisco

And even though she doesn't want to, I feel like she dominates me

Every step my dose of dopamine

On the track she has a reputation as a killer

She has Flashdance as her favorite movie

Dembow addict

Also reggaeton

I have her dancing on the floor

She is Maniac, dancing maniac

And she dances it like she never danced before

She is Maniac, dancing maniac

And she dances it like she never danced before

She is Maniac, dancing maniac

And she dances it like she never danced before

She is Maniac, dancing maniac

And she dances it like she never danced before

She is Maniac, dancing maniac

And she dances it like she never danced before

She's manic, she's manic

She's Manic!

"Maníaca" is Abraham Mateo spelling out his obsession letter by letter: the song literally opens and closes with "M-A-N-Í-A-C-A", like a cheerleader chant for the girl who owns the dance floor. She shows up "descontrolada" (out of control), "quemó la sala" (she set the room on fire), and he is hooked from the first look. By the chorus she is "adicta al dembow, también reggaetón" (addicted to dembow, and reggaeton too). Dembow is the Dominican-born drum pattern that sits under almost every reggaeton hit, so she is basically addicted to the beat itself.

The verse is the fun part, because it paints a full character in a few quick lines. "Por el día va a la uni y por la noche a la disco" (by day she goes to uni and by night to the club): "uni" is the casual word for "universidad". She only goes out "con la pulsera V.I.P" (with the VIP wristband), "to' la miran" (everyone looks at her, with "to'" short for "todos"), and she "suda cada gota de alcohol del San Francisco" (sweats out every drop of alcohol in the San Francisco), a joke, since a San Francisco is a fruity cocktail that usually has no alcohol. He calls each of her steps "mi dosis de dopamina" (my dose of dopamine), says she has "fama de asesina" (a reputation as a killer) on the dance floor, and that her favourite film is Flashdance, the 1983 movie about a dancer. It is silly, catchy and completely over the top, which is exactly the point.
