Intro
Yeah
If she tries it, she's gonna get hooked
I can't stop looking at her
Chorus 1
She noticed, I think I'm gonna go up to her
Her eyes don't lie, she already knows who I am
To people I'm a Baller, but to her I'm normal
The Ballers for her friend, I think tonight is mine, mine
Her man's looking for trouble, I'll put him in El Nuevo Día
From afar she laughs, she wants me to look at her
I know she wants me to hit her up, but she seems scared
Verse 1
Don't be scared, nothing's gonna happen to you
The Ballers walk into the club strapped
And those who crossed the line, karma makes them pay
You stay calm, there's peace, after this, where you headed?
I know you've never been a Barbie
You've always been a Bratz, ah-ah
And no matter how much I look for a way out
Nobody's gonna run the streets like me
I watch out for the bad guys at night and
I never sleep during the day
I know that you understand me
You've already lived this life
A bad girl acting all classy
I figured you out at the club
Prechorus 1
The YSL boots, my vision always Cartier
I don't know if it's déjà vu, I dreamed of you the day before yesterday
The YSL boots, my vision always Cartier
I don't know if it's déjà vu, I dreamed of you the day before yesterday
Chorus 2
If she tries it, she'll get hooked, I can't stop staring at her
She noticed, I think I'm gonna go up to her
Her eyes don't lie, she already knows who I am
To people I'm Quevedo, but to her I'm just normal
El Baifo's for her friend, I think tonight is mine
If her man looks for trouble, I'll put him in El Nuevo Día
From afar she laughs, she wants me to look at her
Verse 2
And even if her boyfriend notices
That b*stard's gonna get scared
El Baifo with Los Baller de la City
If I'm a millionaire and your guy isn't
How you gonna say we're all the same?
I'm rolling in money, caviar and guanciale
And I'm still skinny, only the wallet gets fat
I know I'm gonna die someday
But these chains are gonna be immortal
Tell your man not to slip up
'Cause if not, El Baifo or the Baller will steal you away
From PR all the way to Las Palmas
Everybody knows who the f*ck we are
I could retire at 20
I don't know what the sh*t FOMO is
Whoever acts a fool, the crew fills him with lead
Like Yomo's cap
Babe, I'll fly you private to Mykonos, then on to Lake Como
Prechorus 2
The YSL boots, my vision always Cartier
She wanted two bags and I bought them in leather
You know I'm famous, you already saw me on the poster
I can't even walk into the hotel lobby
Chorus 3
If she tries it, she'll get hooked, I can't stop staring at her
She noticed, I think I'm gonna go up to her
Her eyes don't lie, she already knows who I am
To people I'm a Baller, but to her I'm normal
El Baifo's for her friend, I think tonight is mine
If her man looks for trouble, I'll put him in El Nuevo Día
From afar she laughs, she wants me to look at her
Outro
And even if her boyfriend notices, that b*stard's gonna get scared
Ah
The Ballers from the City
Gra-gra, boom, boom, boom, boom
Look, tell me, Neneto
Tell me, Turbo
Ah, ah
Gra-gra, boom, boom, boom, boom

"Jukiar" is a club song about locking eyes with someone across the room and deciding tonight is yours. Puerto Rico's Clarent opens with "Si prueba se va a juquear" [if she tries it, she'll get hooked], and juquear is Spanglish built from English "hooked". He can't stop staring, she's noticed, and the best part is the humble brag: "Pa' la gente soy Baller, pero para ella normal" [to people I'm a Baller, but to her I'm normal]. Los Baller is his crew. If her boyfriend (el jevo, Puerto Rican slang) wants trouble, "lo pongo en El Nuevo Día" [I'll put him in El Nuevo Día], which is Puerto Rico's big newspaper, so he's saying the guy will end up in the headlines. A bit much, honestly, and very funny. My favourite compliment in the song is "Yo sé nunca has sido Barbie" [I know you've never been a Barbie] / "Tú siempre has sido una Bratz" [you've always been a Bratz]: sassier doll, edgier girl.

Then Quevedo, from the Canary Islands, arrives as El Baifo (a Canarian word for a young goat, and his nickname) and turns the flex up. "Si yo soy millo y tu gato no" [if I'm a millionaire and your guy isn't] uses millo for millionaire and gato for the girl's boyfriend. He eats "caviar y guanciale" [caviar and guanciale, an Italian cured pork cheek] yet "sigo flaco, solo engorda la wallet" [I'm still skinny, only my wallet gets fat], which is a great line. The bridge between the two islands is spelled out in "Desde PR hasta Las Palma'" [from Puerto Rico to Las Palmas], and the shopping list never stops: "Las bota' YSL, mi visión siempre Cartier" [YSL boots, my vision always Cartier], the luxury glasses brand. He even says he's so famous he "No puedo ni entrar al lobby del hotel" [can't even walk into the hotel lobby].
