Chilanga Banda Lyrics in English Café Tacvba

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Chilanga Banda by Café Tacvba from Spanish to English.
Ya chole chango Chilango
Enough already, Mexico City monkey
Que chafa chamba te chutas
You suck at your lousy job
No checa andar de tacuche
You don't look good in fancy clothes
Y chale con la charola
And screw the badge
Tan choncho como una chinche
As fat as a bedbug
Mas chueco que la fayuca
Crookier than the black market
Con fusca y con cachiporra
With a gun and a club
Te pasa andar de guarura
You think you're a big shot
Mejor yo me hecho una chela
I'd rather grab a beer
Y chance enchufo una chava
And maybe pick up a girl
Chambeando de chafirete
Working as a driver
Me sobra chupe y pachanga
I've got plenty of booze and partying
Si choco saco chipote
If I crash, I'll get a bump
La chota no es muy molacha
The cops aren't very chill
Chiveando a los que machucan
Messing with those who mess with me
Se va a morder su talacha
They'll regret it
De noche caigo al congal
At night, I hit the club
No manches dice la changa
No way, says the monkey
Al chorro del teporocho
To the booze stream
Enchifla pasa la pacha
Pass the pipe
Pachuco cholos y chundos
Pachuco, thugs, and riffraff
Chinchinflas y malafachas
Petty crooks and troublemakers
Acá los chompiras rifan
Here the crooks rule
Y bailan tibiri tabara
And dance tibiri tabara
Mejor yo me echo una chela
I'd rather grab a beer
Y chance enchufo una chava
And maybe pick up a girl
Chambeando de chafirete
Working as a driver
Me sobra chupe y pachanga
I've got plenty of booze and partying
Mi ñero mata la bacha
My buddy kills the sink
Le encanta la cucaracha
He loves the cockroach
Su choya vive de chochos
His stash lives off snacks
De chemo churro y garnachas
Of weed, joints, and street food
Pachuco cholos y chundos
Pachuco, thugs, and riffraff
Chichinflas y malafachas
Petty crooks and troublemakers
Acá los chompiras rifan
Here the crooks rule
Y bailan tibiri tabara
And dance tibiri tabara
Tranzando de arriba abajo
Dealing from top to bottom
Ahí va la Chilanga banda
Here comes the Mexico City gang
Chin chin si me la recuerdan
Cheers if you remember me
Carcacha y se les retacha
Junker and they stick to it
