Verse 1

Chck-chck, plow-plow-plow, all to the face

In the Mercedes, Carota, head-to-toe Adidas like Ray Liotta

Ray Liotta is a reference to 'GoodFellas' a 1990 film with themes of crime, gangsters and mafia

Goodfellas without the promo, pay the fee

Your Phillies are lame, and that gets thrown away

Tusi with molly, damn, what a high

I go down on the baby's p*ssy, on the big baby's ass and the p*ssy

Baby, you're Michael Jordan, yeah, yeah, playing ball

From afar, it's clear you're not street, you just pretend

Raise your children well, motherf*cker, all my records have the parental advisory

Take advantage now, I'm not going to do this until I'm forty

Record that I release, record that stays number one in sales

Or: Every album I release, stays number one in sales

Damn, what's the complaint, motherf*cker

Speak, shh, nah, really I don't care

Not even El Father knew what it really was to have money

Or: Not even El Father knew how it really was to have money

Nobody can stand me

Security like President Biden's, but when I go down to PR I'm always without a bodyguard

Some mutilated, others with a license, but here everyone carries a weapon

Or: Some injured, other have licenses, but everyone walks around armed

You say everything, you sound like a podcast

Motherf*cker, what's that act? Who the hell are you talking tough to?

Chorus 1

Are you a big shot? No no

Are you a bandit? No no

Do you kill people? No no

And what are you? And what are you?

Are you a hitman? No no

Are you a millionaire? No no

Do you rule your neighborhood? No no

And what are you? And what are you?

Postchorus

I'm cruising in the Mercedes Carota

Sixty shots in the face

The Glizzy Gang

The Devils of LLorens, son of a b*tch

This is Glizzy Gvng, Money Wayy

You're not a big shot, motherf*cker, you're a fool

A gunshot to the face

Verse 2

The demon

With the only Bunny clearly in hell

A gunshot, and we'll see each other again

I'm in Demon Mode, look at my horns

The packs, the ski mask, the braids, and the dreadlocks

Santurce in the house, the Glocks welcome you

I'm with two hotties riding a jetski

A bit of molly, the tramadol and the Percocet

I'll kill you anywhere, you know I don't play, boy

Fuc*ing hoes like the old man from Playboy

Seven cars, that's a convoy

With more tools than Pep Boys

Pep Boys is an American automotive aftermarket service chain

I'm cruising in the Mercedes Carota

Sixty shots in the face

I'm worth a thousand kilos of coke

In the street they don't touch me

You're not a big shot, you have no power

And you don't rule your block

I'm with the connect planning the move, in Peru I'm deep in a field

Three hundred and the AK, we go hunting motherf*ckers, we live in Grand Theft Auto

They gave me the green light after the ritual, the H, I already talked to the saints

We're hunting you, your time is running out

We don't respect the ranks

The sticks in the Hellcat Durango

Without a license, but armed and walking

Tell me, Bad Bunny, I have the Glizzy in the fanny pack

The Lambo with the switches

The world is mine like Tony

I have millions without signing with Sony

Chorus 2

Are you a big shot?

Are you a bandit?

You don't kill anyone?

And what are you? And what are you?

Are you a hitman?

Are you a millionaire?

Do you rule your neighborhood?

And what are you? And what are you?

bichote — drug lord / big shot

Bichote is a popular slang term in Puerto Rico, derived from the English phrase "big shot". It's used to describe a high-level drug trafficker or a powerful person who controls a certain area.

In "MERCEDES CAROTA", Bad Bunny constantly questions someone's tough-guy persona, asking "¿Tú eres bichote? No no" (Are you a big shot? No no). He uses the word to expose people who pretend to be powerful gangsters but aren't, making it a key term for understanding the attitude and slang in many reggaeton songs.

Bad Bunny teams up with drill heavyweight YOVNGCHIMI to tear down fake street personas. The title track is built around an expensive Mercedes—la Mercedes Carota (the pricey Mercedes, playing on cara meaning expensive and carota meaning big face)—while calling out wannabes who brag about lives they do not lead. Bad Bunny pokes fun at his rivals' tough-guy acts by directly interrogating them: "¿Tú eres bichote? No no" ("Are you a drug kingpin? No, no"). In Puerto Rican slang, a bichote is a high-level kingpin, coming from the English phrase big shot. He points out that while phonies broadcast every move like a podcast ("parecen un podcast"), he casually roams Puerto Rico without security, dresses in full Adidas tracksuits like Ray Liotta in the mob film Goodfellas, and mocks anyone claiming street status with the blunt diss "Mami, tú eres Michael Jordan, sí, sí, jugando pelota" ("Baby, you're Michael Jordan, yeah, yeah, playing baseball"), poking fun at Jordan's famously brief, unsuccessful minor league baseball career.

When YOVNGCHIMI takes the wheel, the track shifts into heavy Puerto Rican drill territory. He brings references to Santurce, high-speed Hellcat Durangos, Santería rituals ("hablé con los santos" / "I spoke with the saints"), and Grand Theft Auto shootouts. Bad Bunny flexes his commercial power—reminding listeners that every album he drops hits number one in sales while out-earning reggaeton pioneers ("Ni siquiera El Father sabía lo que en verdad era tener torta" / "Not even El Father knew what it really was to have serious money", referencing Hector El Father). YOVNGCHIMI fires back with financial independence of his own, boasting "Tengo millones sin firmar con Sony" ("I have millions without signing with Sony"). It is a relentless, loud reality check for anyone acting tough on the internet.
