Plante Bandera Lyrics in English Tego Calderón
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Plante Bandera by Tego Calderón from Spanish to English.
Yo sé que no te gusto
I know you don't like it
Que yo plantara bandera
That I planted a flag
Pues lo que dice mi voz
Well, what my voice says
O-oye sonero
H-hey, sonero
Se repite donde quiera
It's repeated everywhere
Tú te creías que eras dueño de todo
You thought you owned everything
Y me decías
And you told me
Que el mundo andaba a tu modo
That the world ran your way
Y de repente llegué
And suddenly I arrived
Sin echármela de fiera
Without acting all that fierce
Y te resulto al revés
And it turned out the other way around
Porque yo planté bandera
Because I planted a flag
Con humildad
With humility
Con mi sencillez
With my simplicity
Con facilidad
With ease
Vi el mensaje aquel
I saw that message
Pa'lante es que es
Forward is what it is
Yo sé que no te gusto
I know you don't like it
Que yo plantara bandera
That I planted a flag
Pero a lo hecho, pecho
But what's done, chest
También yo tengo derecho
I also have the right
Pero a lo hecho, pecho
But what's done, chest
También yo tengo derecho
I also have the right
Hey
Hey
Planté bandera
I planted a flag
Estoy sonando donde quiera
I'm playing everywhere
En ligas mayores
In the major leagues
Tú frustrao' en la coliseba
You frustrated in the coliseba
Échate pa' allá, lejos
Move over there, far away
Envidioso polillero
Envious moth-eater
La licencia mía es heavy como los truckeros
My license is heavy like the truckers
Pa' lo hecho, pecho
For what's done, chest
Que te salga por el techo
Let it come out through the roof
Casco de huey
Huey helmet
Yo también tengo derecho
I also have the right
Date cuenta
Realize
Que estoy desde los '80
That I've been there since the '80
Esperando mi oportunidad
Waiting for my chance
Con calmita, con la lenta
Calmly, slowly
Tú ya brillaste, y como te late
You've already shone, and how you beat
Cuando llega el negro Calde'
When the black Calde arrives
Huyen to' tus alicates
All your pliers flee
Guaguancó de tiempo España
Guaguancó of time Spain
Como a otro golpe
Like another blow
Pa' enseñarle como se hace a estos torpe'
To show these clumsy people how it's done
Llego el más caracachimba
The most snobby arrived
Flow con timba
Flow with timba
Que se lo gozan hasta las gringa'
That even the gringas enjoy it
Es que yo no soy leyenda como Bob Marley
It's that I'm not a legend like Bob Marley
Pero si rapiar fuera un crimen estaría en 'Sing Sing'
But if raping were a crime I'd be in 'Sing Sing'
Bim-bim
Bim-bim
Y tengo mi bom-bom-bom
And I have my bom-bom-bom
Yo nací con mi bim-bim
I was born with my bim-bim
Y tengo mi bom-bom-bom
And I have my bom-bom-bom
Tengo de sombra lo que te falta, soy completo
I have what you lack in shadow, I'm complete
Con los pies sobre la tierra, en cualquiera tarima me trepo
With my feet on the ground, I'll climb on any stage
Yo le hecho guerra a cualquiera, toditos en un saco los sello
I'll wage war on anyone, I'll seal them all in a sack
Rapiando, mi corillo, me siento satisfecho
Snapping, my gang, I feel satisfied
Sin hacer trampa
without cheating
Bravo como Atlanta
Bravo like Atlanta
Aguanta que llegó grandpa
Hang on, grandpa, it's here
Que bien
How good
Ya cogiste tu cerdo sobre la mesa
you've already caught your Pork on the table
Lo que yo traigo no se vende en la marqueta
What I bring isn't sold at the market
Pues tengo una rumba distinta a la mía
Because I have a different rumba than mine
De falsedad, vanidad, envidia, hipocresía
Of falsehood, vanity, envy, hypocrisy
No te vuelvas loco, ni te vaya a dar un vioco
Don't go crazy, or I'll rape you
Cuando tu oigas to' este saoco
When you hear all this shit
Muchos trataron
Many tried
Pero to'itos se enfangaron
But they all got dirty
Porque tiraron el songo y no lo mangaron
Because they threw the song and didn't steal it
Yo traigo lo mío encima
I bring my stuff on top
Desde la barriga de la negra pila
From the belly of the black pile
Y por mas que tiran no me marginan
And no matter how much they throw, they don't marginalize me
El Abayarde, Tego Calderon
El Abayarde, Tego Calderón
Nació con su bim-bim
Born with his bim-bim
El bravo en el microphone
The bravo on the microphone
Yo lo que traigo es masacote
What I bring is a big mess
Ya sale a flote, y tú po' el techo
It's already coming to the surface, and you're on the roof
Pero ni me toques
But don't even touch me
Nadie me va a quitar lo que Dios me dio
No one's going to take away what God gave me
¿Qué pajo?
What the fuck?
