Verse 1

You came looking for me

Because they let you down again

You came looking for me

But that game is already over

Because I already got tired

That you don't appreciate my arms, my arms

And I already got tired

Of being only just in case

A just in case

Chorus 1

Say goodbye to your best option

Bye, I'm gone, I'm gone

Say goodbye to your best option

Bye, I'm gone, I'm gone

Verse 2

And nobody knows what he has

Until he loses it

And you won't even know

That nobody will love you like me

Or: That nobody will ever love you like me

Baby, over me you don't have power anymore

Or: Baby, over me you no longer have power

And you who always wanted

A fantasy love, like the unicorns

Or: A fairytale kind of love, like the unicorns

But they only gave you the horn

Or: But you were only given the horn

Another goddess who preferred hell

That that bastard would hurt you, that was obvious

Or: That that motherf*cker was going to hurt you, that was obvious

And it's not that I believe in eternal love

But thinking whether you're okay, I don't even sleep anymore

Or: But thinking about if you're good, I no longer sleep

Your mum is crazy about me being her son-in-law

And I waiting like a fool, I already hate myself

But I got tired of being the alternate

And of summers that end in winters

Maybe it's that Pisces doesn't mix with Capricorn

Or that half-hearted love has become modern

Or: Or maybe it's that half love has become the trend

And if it's real I don't hide it

If you're my goddess, I make a cult for you

Or: If you are my goddess, I worship you

But you got used to the insults

And even if I die of desire we can't see each other

Or: And even though I want it so badly, we cannot see each other

One day yes, one day no, that's not having each other

A long time since you called to devour each other

Chorus 2

And today you come looking for me

Because they let you down again

You came looking for me

But that game is already over

cuerno — horn / affair

Cuerno literally means "horn," like on an animal. However, it's also a key part of a hugely popular Spanish idiom: "poner los cuernos," which means "to cheat on someone."

In this song, Bad Bunny makes a clever play on words. He sings that his ex wanted a fantasy love with "unicornios" (unicorns), but instead, "sólo te dieron el cuerno" (they only gave you the horn), a witty line implying she was cheated on. This powerful twist is what makes the word so memorable in the song.

In "BYE ME FUI", Puerto Rican hitmaker Bad Bunny draws a hard line against being treated like a backup plan. He sings to an ex who only comes running back when someone else lets her down ("Viniste buscándome / Porque te fallaron de nuevo" ["You came looking for me / Because they failed you again"]). Instead of playing along, he declares that the game is over and tells her to say goodbye to her best option ("Dile adiós a tu mejor opción / Bye, me fui" ["Say goodbye to your best option / Bye, I left"]). He vents about being tired of being "un por si acaso" ["a 'just in case'"], pointing out how her own mother was crazy about having him as a son-in-law ("Tu mai' loca de que yo sea su yerno" ["Your mom crazy for me to be her son-in-law"]).

Bad Bunny delivers some hilariously blunt wordplay to roast the situation. He mocks her search for a fairy-tale romance: "Y tú que siempre querías / Un amor de fantasía, como los unicornios / Pero sólo te dieron el cuerno" ["And you who always wanted / A fantasy love, like unicorns / But they only gave you the horn"]. In Spanish, "poner el cuerno" is a common idiom that means cheating on someone, so he cleverly flips her unicorn fantasy into a joke about infidelity. He also jokes about bad astrology, wondering if "piscis no mezcla con capricornio" ["Pisces doesn't mix with Capricorn"]. Even though he admits he still craves her, he refuses hot-and-cold games ("Un día sí, un día no, eso no es tenernos" ["One day yes, one day no, that's not having each other"]) and packs his bags for good.
