Chorus 1

I hate your texts when you say that we need to talk

Oh God, what did I do, what did I do, that we need to talk

I hate your texts when you say that we need to talk

Oh God, what did I do, what did I do, that we need to talk

Verse 1

Tell me, who did I hook up with now?

Or was it because I looked at her?

I went to the club and came back

I didn’t even have time to breathe

Well, I made a couple of new female friends

But there's nothing more to it

Or: But that's as far as it goes

Besides, you think that I'd dare

Not even if I popped a pill

Oh wait, speaking of that

Maybe when I was really lit I kissed someone

But only that, but only that

And speaking frankly, babe, I don't even remember

I swear that I don't even remember

Benito, damn it, how the hell do you not remember?

You always do the same thing

You always do the same (thing) to me

So give me a kiss and forget that we need to talk

Chorus 2

I hate your texts when they say that we need to talk

Oh God, what did I do, what did I do

Tell me what my crime was

If I'm a little angel

Verse 2

And tell me who, tell me who

Who told you some shit about me?

Some shit about me

And tell me who, tell me who

Who told you some shit about me?

Some shit about me

I bet it was your friend

I've always been on her bad side

Or: I've always rubbed her the wrong way

Or your gay cousin, Omar

He's always liked me

Or: I've always been his crush

You know that, that's normal

Baby, you have to think

And not make a scene

But you already told your mom

Chorus 3

Because she sent me a message just now

That we need to talk

I hate your texts when you say that we need to talk

Oh God, what did I do, what did I do, that we need to talk

I hate your texts when you say that we need to talk

Oh God, what did I do, what did I do

Did you like this lyrics translation?

pichea — ignore / let it go

Pichea is a popular Puerto Rican slang word derived from the English baseball term 'to pitch', which has evolved to mean 'to ignore' or 'to let something go'.

In the song, Bad Bunny begs his partner to just give him a kiss and "pichea que tenemos que hablar" (ignore that we have to talk). Mastering Caribbean slang like this is the absolute best way to finally understand the lyrics of your favorite reggaeton artists!

Everyone dreads reading those four words on their phone screen: "tenemos que hablar" [we need to talk]. In this track, Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny goes into full panic mode, immediately scrambling to remember what trouble he got into the night before. His mind races through every possibility—did someone catch him flirting, did he hook up with someone ("¿a quién ahora me tiré?" [who did I sleep with now?]), or did he just look at the wrong person at the club? He starts off claiming he is completely innocent ("yo soy un angelito" [I'm an angel]), but within seconds his defense crumbles as he suddenly remembers kissing someone while partying, before trying to play dumb with "ma', yo ni me acuerdo" [babe, I don't even remember].

What makes the song so hilarious is how desperately he tries to deflect the blame instead of facing the conversation. He blames gossip from her friend and her cousin Omar, and then begs her to just ignore the whole issue ("pichea" is classic Puerto Rican slang meaning "ignore it" or "let it go"). The absolute peak of his panic hits at the end when he realizes she already complained to his own mother, and now his mom has sent him the exact same terrifying text: we need to talk.
