Quotable Lyrics:
Vivo muy a prisa, la vida de artista, drogas y mujeres
Otra más para la lista
En el ambiente con figuras grandes, citas importantes
Caviar y otras comidas elegantes
Veinte mil como si nada, mucha ropa que es de marca
Puras dieces son mis damas desde antes de la fama
Pero déjame empezar, siéntense, les vo’a contar
Lo que no sabían de mí, to’a la verdad
