Intro
Now you want to come back
For what reason, tell me why
Now I don't pay attention to you
For a long time I put an end to it
Chorus 1
What do you intend by calling me at this hour?
That attitude I already know
You know very well how to seduce me
But this time it's already too late
Verse 1
This isn't the right time to call
Unless you want to suck it
That you want to light up, that you want to burn
Speaking frankly, I don't really like you
Because of you, I took pills and went overflow Lamar
Lamar Odom is a famous former basketball player who was married to Khloé Kardashian. He had an overdosing incident, which Bad Bunny refers to
But you're not a Kardashian
I don't mess with you, because if not, the retro ones get me soaked
From Snapchat I deleted you, from Facebook I deleted you
From Instagram I deleted you, from my life I deleted you
And now you want to come back
Nah, what you want is to f*ck
But it won't be possible
You're going to see me with someone else and you're going to regret
And now you want to come back
Nah, what you want is to f*ck
But it won't be possible
You're going to see me with someone else and you're going to regret
Chorus 2
What do you intend by calling me at this hour?
That attitude I already know
You know very well how to seduce me
But this time it's already too late
Verse 2
You try to do everything so that I come back
Things are not the same, why insist?
Avoid the annoyances and don't waste your time
You don't find anything with me
You live secretly checking the photos
Investigating my profile
Don't deny it, I know you well
Everything that you did with me
You want to repeat it
You're looking for more
And I don't care about that
Everything that you did with me
You want to repeat it
You're looking for more
And I don't care about that
Chorus 3
What do you intend by calling me at this hour?
That attitude I already know
You know very well how to seduce me
But this time it's already too late
Chorus 4
What do you intend by calling me at this hour?
That attitude I already know
You know very well how to seduce me
But this time it's already too late

SONG MEANING

"Qué Pretendes" is a spicy late-night phone call turned lesson in self-respect. Over a hypnotic reggaetón beat, Colombian superstar J Balvin teams up with Puerto Rico’s Bad Bunny to tell an ex exactly what time it is: too late. The track is a playful but decisive clapback to someone who tries to slide back in after being deleted from every social network. Balvin and Bunny expose the ex’s tricks – seductive calls, nostalgia, promises of wild nights – then slam the door with catchy one-liners that drip with swagger and humor.

Behind the club-ready rhythm lies a message any learner can relate to: guard your peace, know your worth, and never let old flames burn you twice. While the chorus repeats the question “¿Qué pretendes tú llamándome a esta hora?”, the answer becomes crystal clear – the caller only wants mischief, and the singers have already moved on. It is a modern break-up anthem packed with social media references, street slang, and bold confidence that turns heartbreak into a dance-floor celebration.
