Intro
A blazing sun with the window open
Sweaty, so hot, daydreaming awake
What a party, kid, last night's, Mufasa
I eat an arepa missing my home
Chorus 1
What I would give for a thing like that
You and I in Caracas like in 2000
We're skating along the Cota Mil
With the macaws, babe, a flow like that
Wh-what I would give for a thing like that
Cola shaved ice and the dollar at a thousand
We're vibing with a glass of Nestea
El Ávila behind, looks like the TV
Verse 1
Club and beach
Plans that don't fail
Verse 1
I remember going a thousand on the Fajardo in a Ford Fiesta
The pepitos from the Texa
The west's got bougie kids too
Verse 1
A bird for all the cops that always steer you to the right, dude
Head down to La Guaira, bro
In a little bus, bro
Cheese empanada, bro
Garlic sauce, I kiss you
Garlic sauce, I kiss you, babe
Chorus 2
What I would give for a thing like that
You and I in Caracas like in 2000
We're skating along the Cota Mil
With the macaws, babe, a flow like that
Wh-what I would give for a thing like that
Cola shaved ice and the dollar at a thousand
We're vibing with a glass of Nestea
El Ávila behind, looks like the TV
Verse 2
I didn't know that I was vibing
Perched on a mango tree
Leaving high school sweating
A cachito, a tiny room was waiting for me
Living without the instructions, seeing the hearts
Recognizing the gifts, doing what's supposed
Always on vacation, ayayai
On the beach with no money, ayayai
Not in Madrid, nor in Beirut nor in Paris
I found your shade, no
How sweet to come back to you
Dude, of course that yes
Chorus 3
What I would give for a thing like that
You and I in Caracas like in 2000
We're skating along the Cota Mil
With the macaws, babe, a flow like that
What I would give for a thing like that
Cola shaved ice and the dollar at a thousand
We're vibing with a glass of Nestea
El Ávila behind, looks like the TV
Outro
I want to go back, I want to go back
I want to go back, oh, when?
I want to go back, I want to go back
I want to go back, for when?
Oh, kid
What I would give
Outro
A blazing sun with the window open
Sweaty, so hot
Listening to 'Pásame la Yesca'

SONG MEANING

CARACAS EN EL 2000 feels like opening an old photo album that suddenly comes to life. Elena Rose, together with Danny Ocean and Jerry Di, turns everyday snapshots of early-2000s Caracas into a sun-soaked movie: skating along the Cota Mil with the Ávila mountain towering in the background, cooling off with a cola raspadito or a cup of Nestea, and refueling with arepas, pepitos, and cheese-filled empanadas. Street names (Fajardo, La Guaira), neighborhood slang, and even the chaotic traffic all flash by in a swirl of color, heat, and laughter. It is equal parts party anthem and love letter, celebrating the city’s rhythms, flavors, and carefree teenage adventures.

Beneath the upbeat groove beats a longing heart. The chorus—“Lo que yo daría por una vaina así” (“What I’d give for something like that”)—reveals how distance and time make those simple moments feel priceless. Inflation jokes about “el dólar a mil” hint at the economic and political changes that pushed many Venezuelans abroad, yet the song keeps its mood hopeful. By reliving shared memories, the trio reminds listeners that home is more than a place ‑ it is a collection of feelings, friendships, and inside jokes that music can instantly revive. Listening is an invitation to grab your skateboard, taste the garlic sauce, and shout “¡Claro que sí!” to the Caracas you carry inside you.
