Tiempo Pa' Matar

Willie Colón Willie Colón

Time to Kill

In the afternoon there's nothing
I head out to find my crew
We hang out on the corner
Nothing's happening on the avenue
Let's take a spin

A saw for the bottle
We sit on the stairs
And sing old songs
Oh, grandma

(Time to kill) Hail Mary, dark-skinned girl
(Time to kill) they killed the big-lipped guy just for a peanut
(Time to kill) to Dolores the party girl
(Time to kill) the loudmouth got a beatdown
(Time to kill) I can't find the key to Marcela's house

Fernando's around, Juan is dead
Manuel's working, Kimbo's locked up
Doesn't smoke much weed
Toby's really not doing anything

There's a party at Toro and Carmen's
Nobody's missing this one
Someone's inviting, they're passing through
Requesting for Vietnam

For machismo
(Time to kill) against communism
(Time to kill) they come out like noble soldiers, flying bitter and mutilated
(Time to kill) with heroism
(Time to kill) bang! For racism
(Time to kill) all for nothing if when we return it's all the same

Don't push me or I'll shake you off
Don't analyze me through a funnel
I'm reaching the line
Don't mess with my food

My blood is boiling
Listen to what I'm saying
Killing rats, fighting shots
Letting out the negative

Don't waste time asking for permission, go ahead and you'll see
(Waiting for the right moment and now's the time)
Oh, but suck on this pretty one from Sebastián

Look, buddy, how things are, I swear I can't take it anymore
Waiting, waiting for Alfredo's wake
I'm coming for you, Lola, watch out, I'm coming from behind

And if the one in front doesn't toughen up, oh, bless it
I'm sure the ones behind won't take charge
(Waiting for the right moment and now's the time)
Hey, Memín
Killing time isn't the same as time to kill, don't be stupid

And if you want to see me tonight at the window, give me a ticket
(Waiting for the right moment and now's the time)
Listen to me, buddy Alejandro, tell me how things are going

And you see the kid spoke and everyone knows he came out a boy
(Waiting for the right moment and now's the time)
Ask Pérez, he told me if we don't take action, soon we'll all perish

There's no time to be indecisive, go, go, go, go, go, go
