Lyrics

Translation

Para llenar los zapatos

To fill the shoes

Son bastón, los del payaso

They are the clown's staff

Fue muy grande el escenario

The stage was very large

Cumpleaños de un contrario

Birthday of an opponent

En Los Cabos llevó a cabo

In Los Cabos, it took place

Todo un show con un regalo

A whole show with a gift


Contrató una maquillista

He hired a makeup artist

El payaso se disfrazaba

The clown would disguise himself

Aquella falsa sonrisa

That fake smile

A todos los engañaba

Deceived everyone

Y allá en el medio de la pista

And there in the middle of the ring

Su sorpresa revelaba

Revealed his surprise


El obsequio era pistola

The gift was a pistol

Entre la bola, le dio muerte

Among the crowd, he killed him

Un balazo le detona

A gunshot goes off

Pa' que luego se le entrampe

So that later it jams on him

El cerrojo le acomoda

He adjusts the latch

Desentrampó y dio remate

Unjammed and finished him off


Repelaron los escoltas

The bodyguards fired back

Pero él se alcanzó a pelar

But he managed to escape

El chiste fue que una corta

The joke was that a short one

Los hacía recular

Made them back off

Y corriendo por la costa

And running along the coast

Se perdió en el arenal

He got lost in the sandy area


Dicen que es de Chinaloa

They say he's from Chinaloa

Que es pistola de Zambada

That it's Zambada's pistol

Y que por venganza cobra

And that he seeks revenge

Unas cuentas atrasadas

For some overdue accounts

Que confiaron la maniobra

Who trusted the maneuver

En su sonrisa pintada

In his painted smile


La gracia del aquel payaso

The grace of that clown

Estuvo a un paso de la muerte

Was one step away from death

Llevaban el buchelazo

They had the trigger pulled

Pero no jalaron fuerte

But they didn't pull hard

El nombre no tiene caso

The name is pointless

Pa' que aumentar sus pendientes

To increase their concerns
