Cagarla is a very common, informal, and somewhat vulgar Spanish slang term that literally means "to poop it" but is used idiomatically to mean "to mess it up" or "to screw it up."
In the song, the singer is on the verge of calling an ex, singing, "Y estoy a un trago de llamarte y a dos más de cagarla" (And I'm one drink away from calling you and two more from messing it up). This phrase perfectly captures the impulsive and regretful nature of his actions, making it a memorable and relatable expression of making a bad decision.
This song is about the raw sting of being forgotten by someone you still love. The narrator sees his ex laughing with someone new, and what hurts isn't the jealousy itself. It's that he can't even bring himself to hate her for it.
He's up at 3 in the morning, one drink away from calling her and saying something he'll regret. His words get tangled, and all that comes out is one angry, wounded question: who does she think she is to just walk away and forget him, after everything they had together?
By the end he compares himself to a bird she set loose in the sky, knowing he couldn't fly. It's a duet built for singing along at full volume when a breakup still hurts more than you want to admit.
