Intro

Baby, don't call me

Because I am busy forgetting your evils

I already decided that tonight I'm going out

Or: Already I decided that tonight is for going out

With all my motomamis, with all my ladies

When broken into two parts, motomami roughly translates to 'biker chick', a term to empower women, strong, independent, etc

Chorus 1

And I'm spiteful, crazy

I came with a new flow, baby, hacked

'Un flow nuevo de caja' is likely a double meaning of a new flow of money, cash flow, and a new flow of clothes, new style

I move it from side to side and to another side

Today I go out with my baby from the crowned disco

And I'm spiteful, crazy

May God save me from returning to your side

Or: God forbid I come back to you

I move it from side to side and to another side

Today I go out with my baby from the crowned disco

Verse 1

I go with the skirt, hoops and chains

Piña colada, I don't have shame

Or: Piña colada, I'm not sorry

I'm with FeFa, she is the boss

She dances it, she teaches me

Today this brunette doesn't work

Fuck the fame, fuck the work

The night is long, the night is good

Violent mambo and end of the problem

Look how easy I'll tell you

Verse 1

Look how easy I'll tell you

Or: Look how easy I'm going to tell you

That this motomami isn't for you anymore

Or: This biker chick isn't yours anymore

Look how easy I'll tell you

Verse 1

Look how easy I'll tell you

That this motomami

Chorus 2

And I'm spiteful, crazy

I came with a new flow, baby, hacked

I move it from side to side and to another side

Today I go out with my baby from the crowned disco

And I'm spiteful, crazy

May God save me from returning to your side

I move it from side to side and to another side

Today I go out with my baby from the crowned disco

Outro

I'm going to one hundred and eighty because I'm a racer girl

Racineta is a slang word which means 'a girl who goes racing'

You get distracted and I overtake you on the right

I'm going to one hundred and eighty because I'm a racer girl

You get distracted and I overtake you on the right

SONG MEANING

DESPECHÁ is Rosalía’s fiery kiss-off anthem, bursting with Caribbean beats and her signature Motomami swagger. The title comes from the slang despechada — that delicious mix of spite and freedom you feel right after ditching someone who dragged you down. From the very first line she tells the ex to stop calling, because tonight is reserved for dancing, piña coladas, and a brand-new hacked flow that swings “de lado a lado.” The club becomes her playground, her friends are crowned queens, and every shake of the hips is a reminder that heartbreak can fuel pure, unstoppable fun.

Beneath the glittering urban rhythms, the song is a loud celebration of female camaraderie and self-confidence. Rosalía races forward at “ciento ochenta,” outpacing any lingering sadness while chanting an easy ABC to show just how simple moving on can be. Forget fame, forget work, forget the past — this Motomami is reclaiming the night, proving that the best revenge is living (and dancing) fabulously well.
