Verse 1

We've been months without talking

And today you write to me, 'Happy birthday'

Since you want to know how I'm doing

Well, not as good as last year

I could tell you that I already got over you

And that in the club, I got involved with someone else

But why lie to you?

If what I want is to tell you

Chorus 1

I miss you, but drunk, it doesn't hurt as much

That's why I drink even when I wake up

It helps me to think, to think less about you

It helps me pretend that without you I'm happy

I miss you, but drunk, it doesn't hurt as much

That's why I drink even when I wake up

I'm asking God that you don't write again to me

Because I know that if you tell me that you want to come back

I might say yes

And this is how buddy Gabito sounds, man, Royce, Gabito

Tell him that I finally recorded the tumbado song that he always wanted

Verse 2

Your bed got along very well with me

With me, there were three corridos, not "tumbados"

If it were with Laura, I'd be the most miserable

And please don't dedicate to me 'MY EX WAS RIGHT'

MI EX TENÍA RAZÓN (MY EX WAS RIGHT) is a song by Karol G

Because it doesn't fit me

And, babe, I know that you're partying

Or: And, baby, I know that you're out drinking

Dancing to Selena's songs, saying that you're really good

That you don't need me anymore, but I know that you do

Chorus 2

You miss me, but drunk, it doesn't hurt you as much

I have strange messages when I wake up

That I'm a jerk, later, 'I miss you, my love'

And I have the house alone, come ask for forgiveness

I miss you, but drunk, it doesn't hurt as much

That's why I drink even when I wake up

I'm asking God that you don't write again to me

Because I know that if you tell me that you want to come back

I might say yes

SONG MEANING

Cosas De La Peda plunges us into that all-too-relatable moment when a birthday text from an ex reopens every wound. Over a smooth Regional Mexican groove, Prince Royce and Gabito Ballesteros trade confessions that feel half-spoken into a shot glass: “Te extraño, pero borracho no me duele tanto.” In other words, they miss their former lover, but liquor dulls the sting. The song turns the nightclub, the bar, even the morning after into stages for denial and vulnerable honesty, mixing corridos, tumbados, and references to Selena to paint a vivid picture of modern heartbreak.

Behind the catchy melody lies a tug-of-war between pride and longing. Both singers pretend they have moved on—bragging about new flings and late-night parties—yet every drunk text and voicemail reveals the truth: one “¿cómo has estado?” could pull them right back. The result is a playful, bittersweet anthem that says, “I am fine without you… unless I hear from you,” capturing the messy reality of love, loss, and the little “cosas de la peda” we do to survive it.
