Verse 1

Hello, I'm the girlfriend of that man with whom you go out

I found your number in his cellphone

I've been wondering why

Now he smells like another perfume

He looks at me, but he doesn't see me

Hello, I'm the other one, without knowing that there was another

I've heard that this happens, I didn't believe that it would happen to me

So I've had several months of lies

How well he had you hidden

I swear, I didn't know about you

And now we know the truth

And it won't stay like this

Chorus 1

I bet you that he tells you that

You are the best thing that happened to him

I bet you that he's gifting you

Orange flowers with a heart

When you see him again, just tell him

To be a little less predictable

I bet you that he made you fall in love

And that now you're feeling butterflies

He already talked to you about a future together

He also promised me the same things

When you see him again, just tell him

That he's going to get drunk with his own wine

And when he wants to come looking for me, just call his best friend

Verse 2

There's no point in asking anymore

Who was the first, nor thinking

With whom he would've stayed

If we had never found out

For me too, there's no turning back

He has fooled us, and I must confess

That it hurt me a lot

But he who laughs last laughs best

Chorus 2

And I bet you that he tells you that

You are the best thing that happened to him

I bet you that he's gifting you

Orange flowers with a heart

When you see him again, just tell him

To be a little less predictable

I bet you that he made you fall in love

And that now you're feeling butterflies

That he already talked to you about a future together

He also promised me the same things

When you see him again, just tell him

That he's going to get drunk with his own wine

And when he wants to come looking for me, just call his best friend

embriagarse — to get drunk / to become intoxicated

Embriagarse means 'to get drunk' or 'to become intoxicated'. It's a strong and evocative verb that isn't commonly found in every song, making it quite unique.

In the context of "Te Apuesto," the lyric "Que va a embriagarse con su propio vino" (That he's going to get drunk on his own wine) is a powerful metaphor. It suggests that the man will eventually be consumed by his own lies and deceit, facing the consequences of his actions. This poetic use of the word adds a layer of depth and drama to the song's narrative of betrayal and eventual comeuppance.

This song starts with one of the most dramatic opening lines ever: a woman calls another woman and says, "Hola, soy la novia de ese hombre con quien sales" (Hello, I'm the girlfriend of the man you're dating). But instead of a fight, something amazing happens. The two women realize they've both been lied to by the same guy and decide to team up against him. It's a fantastic story of solidarity instead of rivalry.

They start comparing notes and discover just how unoriginal this guy is. They bet he uses the same lines on both of them, like "Te apuesto que te dice que / Tú eres lo mejor que le pasó" (I bet he tells you / that you're the best thing that ever happened to him). He even gives them the same gifts! They decide that the best revenge is to call him out on his predictability and then leave him completely. The final instruction is perfect: when he comes looking for them, he should just "llame a su mejor amigo" (call his best friend), because they're both done with him.
