Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Yoli by Babasónicos from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Verse 1
Lleva en su bolsillo una pistola
He's got a gun in his pocket
Y una pestaña calva
And a bald eyelash
Furia escurre su puño apretado
Fury drains his clenched fist
Carga balas con mala saña
Load bullets with bad shrew
Chorus 1
La llamarán 'narcocorrido'
They'll call it 'narcocorrido'
La llamarán yoli
They'll call it yoli
Verse 2
En su bolso esconde una peluca
In her purse she hides a wig
Unos calmantes y una navaja
A few painkillers and a knife
Pinta un maquillaje deslucido
Paint a gleaming make-up
No durmió bien, no durmió nada
He didn't sleep well, he didn't sleep at all
Chorus 2
La llamarán 'narcocorrido'
They'll call it 'narcocorrido'
La llamarán yoli
They'll call it yoli
Bridge
Casi nada en ella es natural
Almost nothing in it is natural
Todo artificio engaña
Every artifice deceives
Casi nada en ella es natural
Almost nothing in it is natural
Todo artificio engaña
Every artifice deceives
Verse 3
Short, texanas, gel y un gran escote
Short, Texans, Gel and a Big Neckline
En tetas falsas lleva sustancias

Medias corridas, sed de venganza
Running stockings, thirst for revenge

Verse 4
Ir de pueblo en pueblo a pleno sol
Going from village to village in full sun
Agotador, quebranta
Exhausting, breaking
Si la muerte embosca su destino
If death ambushes your destiny
Quiere morir en tijuana
He wants to die in tijuana
Chorus 4
La llamarán 'narcocorrido'
They'll call it 'narcocorrido'
