La calle es una selva de cemento
The street is a cement jungle
Y de fieras salvajes cómo no
And of wild beasts of course
Ya no hay quien salga loco de contento
There is no one who goes crazy happy anymore
Donde quiera te espera te espera lo peor
Wherever the worst awaits you, the worst awaits you
Donde te quiera tes espera lo peor
Wherever I want you, the worst awaits you
Juanito Alimaña con mucha maña
Juanito Alimaña with a lot of skill
Llega al mostrador
Reach the counter
Saca su cuchillo sin preocupación
He pulls out his knife without worry
Dice que le entreguen la registradora
He says that the register be handed over to him
Saca las billetes saca un pistolón, pum
Take out the money, pull out a gun, fart
Sale como el viento
It comes out like the wind
En su disparada
In his shot
Y aunque ya lo vieron
And even though they've already seen it
Nadie ha visto nada
No one has seen anything
Juanito Alimaña va'la fechoría
Juanito Alimaña goes the wrong way
Se toma su caña
He drinks his cane
Fabrica su orgía.
He manufactures his orgy.
La gente le teme
People fear him.
Por que es de cuidado
Why is it caring
Pa' meterle mano
To get your hands on it
Hay que ser un bravo
You have to be brave
Si lo meten preso
If they put him under arrest
Sale al otro día
It comes out the next day
Porque un primo suyo
Because a cousin of his
Está en la policía.
He's in the police.
Juanito Alimaña
Juanito Alimaña
Si tiene maña es malicia viva
If he has skill it's malice alive
Y siempre se alinea
And it always lines up
Con el que está arriba
With the one upstairs
Y aunque a medio mundo
And although halfway around the world
Le robó su plata
He stole his money.
Todos lo comentan
Everyone comments on it
Nadie lo delata
Nobody gives it away
Y aunque a medio mundo
And although halfway around the world
Le llevó la plata
He brought him the silver
Todos lo comentan
Everyone comments on it
Nadie lo delata
Nobody gives it away
A la la ley ley ley ley
To the law law law law
En su mundo

Cuando el era muchachito

Las cositas te pedía

Y si tu no se la daba la mangaba

Como quiera la cogia

Por mi primo es policía
