Moon Talk Lyrics in English by Kidd Keo
Alvariño refers to Albariño, a crisp white wine and grape variety traditionally associated with Galicia in northwestern Spain. In the song, it appears in the line “Alvariño dulce, blanco el vino” (“Sweet Albariño, the wine is white”), adding a vivid cultural detail and making it a memorable vocabulary choice.
Kidd Keo’s “Moon Talk” follows a narrator who is always moving between the road, the block, the club, and home. He wants money because he remembers being broke, saying, “I don’t wanna be broke” [I never want to have no money]. In Spanish, he adds, “Otra vez que me fui” [I left again] and “No estoy cerca de ti” [I’m not near you], so success comes with distance from the woman he wants. “Estoy para el flush” [I’m here for the money] and “I be countin’ them commas” refer to counting the commas in large amounts of cash. The song’s slang keeps the mood direct: “get it out the trap” means escaping a difficult street situation, while “goonies” means his tough friends or crew.
The money talk never fully replaces romance. He says, “Quiero dormir contigo” [I want to sleep with you] and “Mucho tiempo estando perdido” [I’ve been lost for a long time], then mixes affection with very physical images of kissing and lying together. The repeated hook reduces his conflict to one choice: “It’s the money and you” [It’s the money and you], followed by “Ahora estoy por aquí, solo que no estás tú” [Now I’m here, it’s just that you aren’t]. He imagines returning with cash, a Benz, and gifts, but he also admits she could leave and “me parte en dos” [break me in two]. That push and pull is the fun of the song: he talks like a hustler counting hundreds, then suddenly sounds like someone checking the window for the person he misses.
