Intro

She called me at two in the morning, saying that she couldn't sleep

She had forgotten about trying to forget me

We ended up in the car, doing it

And after finishing, we drew hearts on the trunk

Chorus 1

But with that attitude of yours

You've got me caught up in that booty and that tattoo

When I can't stand it anymore, babe, you're always there

Waiting for me to turn off the lights

How can I forget what we did?

Between blunts and bottles of wine

Letting my hair down, you looking at me, I undress

And if you stay, I'll cook whatever you want

Babe, you drive me crazy

I want to have you face-to-face

So you can tell me how it feels

When I'm away

Verse 2

Even though I know that it drives you crazy

That other guys tempt me

But for me, it makes no difference

You're the only one who's different

You drive me crazy, but you do it to me so well

I'm gonna put that ass in a Cayenne

Even if you're a psycho, I'll splurge at Cartier for you

Enjoy the present and forget about yesterday

Because yesterday we all made mistakes

If not, just look at my exes

Let's enjoy the moment before everything evaporates

And even though it's not a romance, I do want you to fall in love

And decorate my room with lingerie

This little body in jeans

Daddy, these curves have no end

And even though my name isn't Ivy, today I want to be your queen

You just call me, daddy, just send the pin

We fight in bed and use it as a ring

Chorus 2

But with that attitude of yours

I have you wrapped around my booty and that tattoo

When I can't take it anymore, daddy, you're always there

Waiting for me to turn off the lights

How can I forget what we did?

Between blunts and bottles of wine

Letting your hair down, taking off your Moschino panties

And if you stay the night, I'll cook you whatever you want

Babe, you drive me crazy

I want to have you face-to-face

So you can tell me how it feels

When I'm away

evapore — evaporates

Evapore comes from the verb evaporar, which means "to evaporate". While it literally refers to a liquid turning into vapor, it's used here in a much more poetic and metaphorical sense.

In the song, KAROL G sings, "Disfrutemos del momento antes que todo se evapore" (Let's enjoy the moment before everything evaporates). She uses this beautiful word to describe the fleeting nature of their time together, urging her partner to live in the present before the magic of the moment disappears. This powerful imagery makes it a very memorable word.

In "PERO TÚ", Colombian superstar KAROL G links up with Quevedo for a smooth, late-night reggaeton track about an intense romantic connection you just cannot shake off. It starts with a 2:00 AM phone call and ends with them drawing hearts on a car trunk ("dibujamos corazones en el baúl" [we drew hearts on the trunk]). The chemistry is playful, chaotic, and undeniably mutual, running on blunts, wine, and pure late-night distraction.

The lyrics give you a great peek into everyday Spanish slang and pop references. When Quevedo says "mami, tú me tienes mal" [babe, you've got me messed up], he is talking about being completely head-over-heels for her attitude, her tattoo, and her style. KAROL G flips that energy right back, joking that her curves are endless and dropping a nod to reggaeton royalty: "aunque no me llamo Ivy, hoy yo quiero ser tu queen" [even though my name isn't Ivy, today I want to be your queen], referencing the legendary artist Ivy Queen. Between luxury flexes like buying out Cartier and funny promises to cook whatever you want for breakfast if you stay over, it is a fun, flirty track about enjoying the moment together without overthinking tomorrow.
