BANDIDA Lyrics English Translation by Mora
Maybe it was just bad habits
I was used to playing the villain—the guy love never rattles
But you’ve got me stuck in the dark, hand‑in‑hand with doubt
Road’s pitch‑black; I’m still waiting for the lights to come out
That mask doesn’t hide you anymore
Even though you lie so smooth it sounds like truth
Girl, you forget I can play that game too
You’re not just trouble, baby—you’re the curse
You cost me my time, and a couple of other things worse
And that’s how I learned you’re a bandida
Yeah, you knew what you were doing; I was minding mine while you reeled me deeper in
Went from most‑wanted to asking, “Where the hell you hiding?”
Maybe I deserved it, ’cause I never believed the warnings about you
You’re a bandida
Yeah, you knew what you were doing; I was minding mine while you reeled me deeper in
Went from most‑wanted to asking, “Where the hell you hiding?”
Maybe I had it coming; paying karma every debt I owe
I swore you were an angel—but turns out
You haven’t lost once since your first bout
Rollin’ with a crew of friends who schooled you up
Conscience long buried; that grave’s sealed shut
It’s clear—lose the costume, spare the crystal tears
Don’t call, don’t look for me, I won’t pick up
Well… can’t promise that, but better not to slip up
’Cause I might trip again
Let God judge me—I’ll bribe the jury
I’d hit it once more, though you don’t deserve me
Swear I’d forget you if forgetting was easy
With you I even went romantic
The sex? Not normal—straight magic
But I’m pretty sure that heart’s plastic
You think you’re smart, but you flunk the basics (Basics)
Yeah, you think you’re smart, but you flunk the basics (Basics)
Always flunk the basics
’Cause you’re a bandida
Yeah, you knew what you were doing; I was minding mine while you reeled me deeper in
Went from most‑wanted to asking, “Where the hell you hiding?”
Maybe I deserved it, ’cause I never believed the warnings about you
You’re a bandida
Yeah, you knew what you were doing; I was minding mine while you reeled me deeper in
Went from most‑wanted to asking, “Where the hell you hiding?”
Maybe I had it coming; paying karma every debt I owe
