Calm Down
Most Wanted Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Para todos los wachos
Que andan siempre patos
Paren de bolsiar
Sin niuno man
Eeeee jaaaaa
A bailar la cumbia
Tu sonora de siempre
La sonora Cinco estrellaaaaas

Carretiando por aquí, carretiando por acá
Y sin querer queriendo aparece sin niuno man
Carretiando por aquí, carretiando por acá
Y sin querer queriendo aparece sin niuno man

Pal cajón del maipo, nos fuimo a carretiar
Y no lo van a creer, lo que les voy a contar
Entremedio de las matas pidiendo fuego aparece sin niuno man

Sin niuno man
Esa era wacho
Sin niuno man
Esa era wacha
Sin niuno man
Esa era rey
Sin niuno man

Sin niuno man
Esa era wacho
Sin niuno man
Esa era wacha
Sin niuno man
Esa era rey
Sin niuno man

Nos fuimo a mochiliar, pa Chiloe
Nos pitiamos un cordero, habia vino también
Faltaban los cigarros, me fui pal almacen
Y no lo van a creer, lo que les voy a contar
Afuera del almacen machetiando estaba sin niuno man
Y se me pegó
El cordero nos comió
Los cigarros se fumó
Y se puso pepe
Nos quería pegar
Se tomó un copete ese "mada faka" y se durmió

Nos fuimos pal norte
Hasta el valle del elqui
Y entremedio de las parras
Meta cumbia y guitarra
Meta combinao
Se nos acabo la bebida
quien se ofrecía, ir a comprar nadie quería
Y una voz de fondo, que se ofrecía
Y no lo van a creer, lo que les voy a contar
Era el mismísimo el inigualado sin niuno man

Sin niuno man
Esa era wacho
Sin niuno man
Esa era wacha
Sin niuno man
Esa era rey
Sin niuno man

Sin niuno man
Esa era wacho
Sin niuno man
Esa era wacha
Sin niuno man
Esa era rey
Sin niuno man

Nos tiene terrible llenos
Con su olfato que no falla
Aparece como taya
Machetiando si que es bueno
Siempre anda al acecho
Pa poder quear cochecho
Nos demuestra desenfreno
Más encima no se caya
Del bolsillo saca challa
Regalemole un veneno
Del bolsillo saca challa
Regalemole un veneno

Sin niuno man
Esa era wacho
Sin niuno man
Esa era wacha
Sin niuno man
Esa era rey
Sin niuno man

Sin niuno man
Esa era wacho
Sin niuno man
Esa era wacha
Sin niuno man




Esa era rey
Sin niuno man

This song is for all the guys who are always drunk and causing trouble. Stop talking nonsense and let's dance to the traditional cumbia music of the Sonora Cinco Estrellas.


Carretiando por aquí, carretiando por acá Y sin querer queriendo aparece sin niuno man Carretiando por aquí, carretiando por acá Y sin querer queriendo aparece sin niuno man
While we're partying, this mysterious person keeps showing up without anyone inviting them or knowing who they are. They just appear out of nowhere.


Pal cajón del maipo, nos fuimo a carretiar Y no lo van a creer, lo que les voy a contar Entremedio de las matas pidiendo fuego aparece sin niuno man
We went to party in the Cajon del Maipo area, and amid the bushes and trees, this unknown person appeared out of nowhere asking for a light for their cigarette.


Esa era wacho Esa era wacha Esa era rey Sin niuno man
This person could have been a guy, a girl, or even a king, but the fact remains that nobody knows who they are because they show up unexpectedly without an invitation.


Nos fuimo a mochiliar, pa Chiloe Nos pitiamos un cordero, habia vino también Faltaban los cigarros, me fui pal almacen Y no lo van a creer, lo que les voy a contar Afuera del almacen machetiando estaba sin niuno man Y se me pegó El cordero nos comió Los cigarros se fumó Y se puso pepe Nos quería pegar Se tomó un copete ese "mada faka" y se durmió
We went on a camping trip to Chiloe, where we ate lamb and drank wine, but ran out of cigarettes. While I went to the store, this unknown person was outside, brandishing a machete. They ended up joining us for the night, and after the lamb ate our cigarette stash, this person became aggressive, but then got drunk and fell asleep.


Nos fuimos pal norte Hasta el valle del elqui Y entremedio de las parras Meta cumbia y guitarra Meta combinao Se nos acabo la bebida quien se ofrecía, ir a comprar nadie quería Y una voz de fondo, que se ofrecía Y no lo van a creer, lo que les voy a contar Era el mismísimo el inigualado sin niuno man
We went to the northern Elqui Valley and ran out of alcohol. Nobody wanted to go buy more, but then this unknown person offered to do it. And once again, it was the ever-elusive 'sin niuno man' who appeared out of nowhere.


Nos tiene terrible llenos Con su olfato que no falla Aparece como taya Machetiando si que es bueno Siempre anda al acecho Pa poder quear cochecho Nos demuestra desenfreno Más encima no se caya Del bolsillo saca challa Regalemole un veneno Del bolsillo saca challa Regalemole un veneno
This person keeps following us everywhere with their keen sense of smell, and they always show up suddenly, machete in hand. They seem to be looking for trouble and won't stop until they find it. They even carry drugs and poison in their pocket, which they shamelessly display to us.

Great gee-up track. Would've sounded great in the clubs in 1989. Back when hip hop had some heavy dance floor shakers.
