[Intro: Ozuna]
Wo-oh, oh-oh

Prende los motores Kawasaki (Kawasaki)
Que la disco está llena y llegaron los Anunnakis (Eh-eh)
No le bajes
[Pre-Coro: Ozuna]
El booty sobresale de tu traje
No trajo pantisito pa' que el nene no trabaje
Es que yo me sé lo que ella cree que ella se sabe
Cuenta que no quiere pero me tiene espionaje, eh-eh
El booty sobresale de tu traje

Bardi (Cardi)
He said he wanna to touch it, and tease it, and squeeze it
Well, my piggy bank is hungry, my n*gga, you need to feed it
If the text ain't freaky, I don't wanna read it
And just to let you know, this punani is undefeated, ayy
He said he really wanna see me more
I said, "We should have a date—where? At the Lamborghini store"
I’m kinda scary, hard to read, I'm like a Ouija board
But I'm a boss b**ch, who you gonna leave me for?
You hoes got no class, you b**ches is broke still
I be talking cash, sh*t, while I'm popping my gold grill
I'm a whole rich b**ch, and I work like I'm broke still
But the love be so fake, but the hate be so real, uh
[Pre-Coro: Cardi B]

Taki Taki
Do you want a little kiss or a ñaqui
Booty blows up like Nagasaki (-Aki)
Turn on the Kawasaki motorcycles (Kawasaki)
That the club is full and the Annunaki are here (Eh-eh)
Don't slow down, the booty sticks out of your outfit
She didn't bring panties so the guy doesn't have to work for it
It's just that I know what she thinks she knows
She says she doesn't want to but she is spying on me, eh-eh

And show me that little step that I don't know
