Below, I translated the lyrics of the song El Camaleon by los palmeras del mar from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Hace un buen año vato
It's been a good year dude
Que no te licaba
that didn't kill you
En la chamba tu jurabas
In the chamba you swore
Que carnales para siempre
that carnal forever
Y ahora vato na'más verte
And now vato just to see you
El destino es decisión
destiny is decision
Y ahora vato, mala suerte
And now vato, bad luck
Tú elegiste camaleón
you chose chameleon
Cama, cama, cama, camaleón
Bed, bed, bed, chameleon
Guácha, se te va a quemar
Wow, you're going to burn
Esa fusca con que buscas
That fusca with which you are looking
Trucha, se te va a quemar
Trout, you're going to burn
Esa fusca con que buscas de tragar
That fusca with which you seek to swallow
Trucha, se te va a quemar
Trout, you're going to burn
Esa placa con que quieres farolear
That badge you want to bluff with
Buzo, no se va a olvidar
Diver, it will not be forgotten
Que volteaste bandera ¡nada más!
That you flipped the flag, nothing more!
Lica, te vas a quemar
Lica, you're going to burn
Esa chamba es pura lumbre camará
That chamba is pure fire, camara
Una tarde al acabar la marcha
One afternoon at the end of the march
Cayó la razzia
the raid fell
Provocadores pasándose de lanza
Provocateurs passing the spear
Con rabia en la mirada
with anger in his eyes
Yo miré a quién me pegaba
I looked at who was hitting me
Y detrás de la jugada
And behind the play
Te vi a ti camarada, te vi a ti camaleón
I saw you comrade, I saw you chameleon
Policía soy, dijiste
Police I am, you said
El que no transa no avanza
He who does not compromise does not advance
Aspirante a judicial
judicial aspirant
Golpeador a contratar
kicker to hire
Te olvidaste del barrio
you forgot about the neighborhood
El dinero es tu verdad
money is your truth
Cama, cama, cama, camaleón
Bed, bed, bed, chameleon
Trucha camaleón
chameleon trout
