And he only talks to the crew behind
their backs, like we're ghosts to
them, a hard beat, the same old cops
a reader, everyone's stealing, they don't
want to read, home with Bugs Bunny and me
I mean the suites, eating pastrami, and I
have it, and Mary, listen, Vega Sicilia
like good Italians, all for the
family, she was bad like your
envy, by law, failure and a
fine line, brothers spending the day
looking at the neighbor's garden, let them have
the orchids, game
bills from the washing machine got stained
by this, all the meat, the fat, I have
to always live off a pharmacy
just like a church in Murcia, something
slower, and if it sounds pure like Yasuní
a veteran but cool, James Bond, and I don't know
what happened last night, I woke up in the ICU when
a mature nurse like Carla Bruni
me, so... and then Hammurabi has that with
the one that I... with that, we walk like a
little dog chasing the bone, the rats, I
don't call the shots, but I'm carrying the weight
I don't know what you're talking about, and here it comes
apply it like a movie, also name-dropping
we started out as healthy backup singers, but we
got high and ended up drinking from a tree
look at the screen, packed with mango, we're
reaping everything we sowed along the way
tell me the deal, the how and the room, and
I'll show up with my boys to make the
exchange
whether I go or not today, he only talks
to himself when the crew is behind his
back, like trapped, we're ghosts to
the useless ones, hard beat, the same old
poor guys are stealing
plenty, listening even to the world's top three
he carried me along, the grinders, I had
the dream
Johnny Hunger, and now they have it at hand
how was it, babe? Good road action from
city to city, they want to know what happened, what
was cold when you've got the
snitches, which doesn't make me look good, the
partners, girlfriends, beer, and it's born for me from
death, how I'm so alive, and I die with my people
careful who you try
to cut off from behind when they come carrying them
to the lake, bigger or worse, pull back even if
I'm cooking something up, tough guy, respect it
I've turned every experience into a
marble sculpture
this is illegal, like
contraband through the streets, like an
imperial eagle in the Grand Canyon, I let
the fox watch me, but before long I make them
sprint, I pray a prayer for them and
bury them in my garden like José Bretón
if you're one of mine, what I have is
for us both; if not, I don't trust you, even with a
recommendation, so I climb out
of my talks, they're dedicated to another woman
to that girl under pressure, religion
when you want them to pay you, I know you
told me he makes three times what
those evils take from you, the leashes
when the new one comes out, he's never seen a
dog all alone that wants a muzzle
until now, as you know, they know what happened, I
when... whoever knows, tell me, we switch
the guard, mind your manners, move forward, stepping on the
fly
he only talks while sizing up the crew, chatter
shovel, like co-
we're ghosts to them, a hard beat, and
you still step into the cut stealing
everything
the party's over
and

chivatos — snitches / informants

Chivatos is a memorable slang word for people who secretly report on others, similar to “snitches” or “informants” in English. In the song, it appears in a streetwise context alongside references to associates and avoiding trouble, giving the word a sharp, distinctly Spanish flavor.

“Tommy Hill” feels like a fast, slang-heavy street rap built from sharp boasts, strange snapshots, and loyalty tests. The recurring idea is that the crew moves quietly and carries its own weight: “sólo habla con el equipo a las espaldas” [he only talks with the team behind him] and “estamos fantasmas” [we are ghosts]. The narrator distrusts outsiders, watches people who envy him, and says that real loyalty is reserved for his own circle: “si eres de los míos, lo que tengo para los dos” [if you are one of mine, what I have is for both of us].

The fun of the lyrics is their wild jump-cut style. Luxury names, food, crime-film images, and everyday details crash together: Bugs Bunny, pastrami, Vega Sicilia wine, James Bond, Carla Bruni, and “billetes de la lavadora” [banknotes from the washing machine]. He talks about planting and collecting the results, appearing with his children for an exchange, and turning every experience into “una escultura en mármol” [a sculpture in marble]. There are also darker threats, including “los entierro en mi jardín” [I bury them in my garden], so the song’s swagger is deliberately excessive. For an English learner, listen for the street vocabulary around “chivatos” [snitches], “socios” [partners], “fiarse” [to trust someone], and “llevar el peso” [to carry the burden].
