Verse 1

I look happy, but only in old photos

God hears me and says, 'Wow, how can this motherf*cker complain?'

So many achievements that sometimes it's not even celebrated

If I smoke, I become paranoid, my mind never clears

My body is free, and my heart is behind the bars

People see a goat, and I'm just another sheep

Cabra = goat = Greatest Of All Time

I'm just another sheep

So don't bother if I don't bother you

I don't answer calls or text messages

The fame, I detest it

Or: Fame, I hate it

I swear I didn't want this

So don't bother if I don't bother you

I don't answer calls or text messages

I only talk to God when I lie down

And He told me that nobody is perfect

But that's how it was

Bad Bunny is on something else, the motherf*cker left

I'm going to change my number, we'll talk after

Look, who is the one throwing shots at me?

Okay, okay, tell him to write down my number there

This, 787, I don't care whatever you have to say, motherf*cker

787 is the area code for Puerto Rico

I am the toughest

Verse 2

Like Kobe in Madison Square Garden

I score 61, amen, may God protect you

Kobe Bryant scored 61 points in a famous match at Madison Square Garden in the 2008-09 season

They got scared, what happened? Are they salty now?

I was going to sign for five, but they were late

Now I want twenty, what's more, make it thirty

This looks like a drug point, here the sales don't stop

This verse is worth a kilo of Fentanyl

If I pass with the fast one, and you're in the slow one

I get off with Custom, Benito with La Paciencia

Don't test me, motherf*cker, I have no patience

To give you a shot doesn't fuck with my conscience

Or: To shoot you doesn't bother my conscience

The one from the new drop that keeps trending worldwide

The Bunny is Messi, I am Mbappé

We crown, we're on the escape route

Bad Bu told me to kill them

And I gave them checkmate

These people can't handle those squeezes

Let's get ready for the babes

It goes like this, Three Letters

Verse 3

I spit in your mouth and I pull your hair

I bury this dick in you and take you to heaven

She's from a magazine, she has the demeanor of a model

Lower the Moet, she doesn't drink Modelo

In the private jet, The King of the Skies

Putting it in, shh, snow falls from the sky

I'm a freak, I'm not Pablo Coelho

I always put it in, she's a bitch, she's in heat

Bring down your friends, we're the stormtroopers

Big booty, it doesn't fit in the Mini Cooper

You know my movie has no bloopers

We'll take your girl, like we did before

I dress great, I'm an artist and stylist

Cabrón means great / sharp in this context

To get married, I prefer a Riley

I like stars, the ones that are from Hollywood

It's me, Bad Bu, writing Kylie from the new number, what?

Chorus 1

How much do you want? Because I'll give them to you

I'll pay you, I have hundreds

Go ahead, use me, because that suits you

She gets fucked after she comes

She sends videos when I'm not around

Playing with her toy, screaming for me to come

Go ahead, babe, I do whatever you say

Let me know when you're looking for this dick

Chorus 2

How much do you want? Because I'll give them to you

I'll pay you, I have hundreds

Go ahead, use me, because that suits you

She gets fucked after she comes

She sends videos when I'm not around

Playing with her toy, screaming for me to come

A devil, she wants me to burn

She's crazy for me to make her a baby

Put the track again, from the beginning once more, go, go, go

Verse 4

They see me and walk backward, we hit them with that Michael Jackson thriller

Motherf*cker, I'm killing it, since I released "Diles"

Manny Ramirez, I hit it out of the park and then I catch them all in the fields

I put my dick in your girl's mouth to test the fillers

If she sucks me great, I pay her bills

rico in this context mean well

If she licks my ass, I take her to the dealer

I take her to the dealer

Babe, don't get attached, I'm not Jay Wheeler

I throw it in your face, concealer

Then I change my number and they can't reach me

Verse 4

At the stripclub, I make the cash rain

Every Friday is my birthday bash

Girl, get your feet off the dash

I already lowered the zipper to show you Ash

I'll stick it in right here in the parking lot of Catch

Catch is a restaurant in Vegas

Look at my feet, don't you have these?

Now I'm a model, the perfect look

Two thousand and twenty-four, who the hell wears Psycho Bunny?

This is not The Simpsons, motherf*cker, you are not Fat Tony, loser

You are puppets in quotation marks

They have a yacht to party on the shore

And me, for Tortola and the Antilles

The Bugatti has more flight hours than miles

Everyone knows it's me without reading the license plate

The fame is my wife, the street is my lover

Be careful, Ja Morant, don't fuck up your knee

Temetrius Jamel 'Ja' Morant is an American professional basketball player

As a little kid, mum used to tell me to leave the crew

Forgive me, mom, but I'm with Luar La L

And a couple of whores in hotels, in the club throwing bills

Cocaine for those who sniff, a hit for anyone who sneaks in

Rub it, motherf*cker, I know that it hurts them

You don't make a hit-song even with Lele's notebook, no

Lele 'El Arma Secreta' was a composer of reggaeton

Hey, Father, they're shitting themselves, buy the Pampers

Father references 'Hector El Father', a pioneer of reggaeton

Today I want a Puerto Rican girl who's ready for a gangster

Babe, move your ass, until I have a heart attack

And I'll pay you for the university, the laser and the implants

tablilla — license plate

Tablilla is a classic Puerto Rican slang word for a car's "license plate." The more standard Spanish words are placa or matrícula, so learning tablilla gives you a cool piece of regional vocabulary.

In the song, Bad Bunny boasts that his car is so recognizable that people don't even need to read the plate to know it's him: "To' saben que soy yo sin leer la tablilla" (Everyone knows it's me without reading the license plate). It's a powerful flex that highlights his status and Puerto Rican roots.

“TELEFONO NUEVO” begins with Bad Bunny admitting that success has not brought him peace: “Me veo feliz, pero sólo en fotos viejas” [I look happy, but only in old photos]. He ignores calls, says he hates fame, and describes his body as free while his heart remains behind bars. One clever line turns celebrity praise upside down: people see “una cabra” [a goat, also “the greatest of all time” in English slang], but he feels like “otra oveja” [just another sheep]. Changing his number becomes a way to escape attention, pressure, and anyone demanding access to him. The mention of 787, Puerto Rico’s best-known area code, keeps that idea tied to home.

Then Luar La L and Bad Bunny switch into full competitive mode, packed with boasts, threats, luxury, and very explicit sexual lines. In reggaeton and Latin trap, chanteo means a hard, rhythm-focused rap verse, and theirs is loaded with sports and pop-culture comparisons: Kobe Bryant scoring 61 at Madison Square Garden, Messi and Mbappé as symbols of elite status, and “jaque mate” [checkmate] as the final defeat of their rivals. There are also deliberately wild flexes, from private jets and a Bugatti to stormtroopers and Michael Jackson’s Thriller. The title’s joke returns after the hookups and bragging: “Después cambio de número y no me consiguen” [Then I change my number and they can’t find me]. It is funny, cold, and central to the song’s split personality: fame feels like a prison at first, but the new number later becomes a tool for disappearing whenever he wants.
