chiquiónspoiled / pampered (affectionate slang)

Chiquión is a colloquial and affectionate term, often used in Mexico, that means "spoiled" or "pampered." It's a playful way to refer to someone who is a bit demanding but in a charming way.

In the song, it's used as an interjection, like saying "Oh, you big baby!" or "Oh, you spoiled one!" It adds a touch of playful exasperation and endearment, making it an interesting and culturally specific word to learn.

"MATCHA" by Los Dareyes De La Sierra is a corrido about shrugging off a broken heart with bravado. The narrator admits his heart is broken over "that damn love," but instead of moping he throws himself into partying: tequila shots, cigars, snacks, and casual flings, anything that helps him forget.

The chorus turns that heartbreak into an insult aimed at whoever hurt him, calling them worthless and comparing them to a cockroach, the kind of over-the-top putdown corridos are known for. It plays less like a love song and more like a swagger song: the narrator insists nothing and no one gets to slow him down, even with the wound still fresh.

Lyrically this is classic regional Mexican corridos tumbados: blunt, informal Spanish, plenty of slang, and a devil-may-care attitude wrapped around real hurt.
