Demasiado Tarde Lyrics in English by Los Plebes del Rancho de Ariel Camacho
Túmbate el rollo is a colloquial Spanish phrase that literally translates to "throw yourself the roll," but it's an idiom meaning "drop the act," "cut it out," or "stop with the drama."
In the context of "Demasiado Tarde," the singer uses this phrase to tell an ex-lover to stop trying to win them back. It's a dismissive and firm way of saying, "Give up, it's over, and your attempts are futile." This phrase is particularly engaging because it's a common, yet colorful, piece of Mexican slang that adds a lot of character to the lyrics.
Ever been in a situation where someone treated you like an option, and then they suddenly want you back? That's exactly what Los Plebes del Rancho de Ariel Camacho are singing about in "Demasiado Tarde" [Too Late].
The song is a blunt message to an ex who's trying to re-enter the picture, but it's just too late. The singer isn't holding back, asking "¿Qué pedo contigo? Yo no soy tu juego" [What's up with you? I'm not your game] and calling out their ego. They make it clear that the time for second chances is over: "Demasiado tarde pa' que te arrepientas" [Too late for you to regret it] and "Demasiado tarde pa' que te perdone" [Too late for me to forgive you]. Ouch! The best part? The singer reveals that someone else is enjoying what the ex didn't appreciate: "Todo esto que no quisiste Alguien más ya se lo come" [All this that you didn't want Someone else is already enjoying it]. Talk about a mic drop!
