The Fresh Prince of Bel Air
Jeffrey Townes, Willard C. Smith, Quincy III Jones
Now this is a story all about how
My life got flipped, turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air
In West Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out, maxin,' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said, "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air"
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket
I put my Walkman on and said, "I might as well kick it"
First class, yo this is bad
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of Bel-Air living like?
Hmm, this might be alright
But wait I hear they're prissy, bourgeois and all that
Is this the type of place that they should send this cool cat?
I don't think so, I'll see when I get there
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air
Well, uh, the plane landed and when I came out
There was a dude looked like a cop standing there with my name out
I ain't tryna get arrested yet, I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought, "Nah, forget it, yo, holmes, to Bel-Air"
I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabbie, "Yo, holmes, smell ya later"
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air
Now this is a story all about how
Ahora esta es una historia sobre cómo
My life got flipped, turned upside down
Mi vida se volcó, se puso patas arriba
And I'd like to take a minute
Y me gustaría tomarme un minuto
Just sit right there
Solo siéntate ahí
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air
Te contaré cómo me convertí en el príncipe de un pueblo llamado Bel-Air
In West Philadelphia born and raised
Nacido y criado en West Philadelphia
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
En el patio de recreo fue donde pasé la mayoría de mis días
Chillin' out, maxin,' relaxin' all cool
Relajándome, pasándolo bien, relajándome todo genial
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school
Y todos jugando un poco de baloncesto fuera de la escuela
When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Cuando un par de chicos que estaban buscando problemas
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
Empezaron a causar problemas en mi barrio
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
Me metí en una pequeña pelea y mi mamá se asustó
And said, "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air"
Y dijo: "Te vas a mudar con tu tía y tu tío en Bel-Air"
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
Rogué y supliqué día tras día
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
Pero ella empacó mi maleta y me envió en mi camino
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket
Me dio un beso y luego me dio mi boleto
I put my Walkman on and said, "I might as well kick it"
Puse mi Walkman y dije: "Podría intentarlo"
First class, yo this is bad
Primera clase, esto está mal
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
Bebiendo jugo de naranja de una copa de champán
Is this what the people of Bel-Air living like?
¿Es así como vive la gente de Bel-Air?
Hmm, this might be alright
Hmm, esto podría estar bien
But wait I hear they're prissy, bourgeois and all that
Pero espero, oigo que son presumidos, burgueses y todo eso
Is this the type of place that they should send this cool cat?
¿Es este el tipo de lugar al que deberían enviar a este gato genial?
I don't think so, I'll see when I get there
No lo creo, lo veré cuando llegue allí
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air
Espero que estén preparados para el príncipe de Bel-Air
Well, uh, the plane landed and when I came out
Bueno, eh, el avión aterrizó y cuando salí
There was a dude looked like a cop standing there with my name out
Había un tipo que parecía un policía parado allí con mi nombre
I ain't tryna get arrested yet, I just got here
No estoy tratando de ser arrestado todavía, acabo de llegar aquí
I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared
Salté con la rapidez del rayo, desaparecí
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
Silbé a un taxi y cuando se acercó
The license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror
La matrícula decía "fresh" y tenía dados en el espejo
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
Si acaso podría decir que este taxi era raro
But I thought, "Nah, forget it, yo, holmes, to Bel-Air"
Pero pensé: "Nah, olvídalo, yo, holmes, a Bel-Air"
I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
Llegué a una casa alrededor de las siete u ocho
And I yelled to the cabbie, "Yo, holmes, smell ya later"
Y le grité al taxista: "Yo, holmes, huele a luego"
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there
Miré mi reino, finalmente estaba allí
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air
Para sentarme en mi trono como el Príncipe de Bel-Air
Now this is a story all about how

Started making trouble in my neighborhood

I begged and pleaded with her day after day
Eu implorei e implorei para ela dia após dia
But she packed my suitcase and sent me on my way
Mas ela arrumou minha mala e me mandou embora
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket
Ela me deu um beijo e então ela me deu minha passagem
I put my Walkman on and said, "I might as well kick it"
Eu coloquei meu Walkman e disse: "Eu também posso curtir"

Eu não estou tentando ser preso ainda, acabei de chegar aqui
I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared
Eu saltei com a rapidez de um raio, desapareci
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
Eu assobiei para um táxi e quando ele se aproximou
The license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror
A placa dizia "fresh" e tinha dados no espelho
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
Se houvesse algo que eu pudesse dizer que este táxi era raro
But I thought, "Nah, forget it, yo, holmes, to Bel-Air"
Mas eu pensei: "Nah, esquece, yo, holmes, para Bel-Air"
I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
Eu cheguei a uma casa por volta das sete ou oito
And I yelled to the cabbie, "Yo, holmes, smell ya later"

Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there
Olhei para o meu reino, finalmente cheguei lá

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
Ich pfiff nach einem Taxi und als es näher kam
The license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror
Erkannte ich, dass auf dem Nummernschild „fresh“ stand und es hatte Würfel im Spiegel
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
Wenn ich eines sagen könnte, dann, dass dieses Taxi selten war

I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
Ich hielt vor einem Haus an, so um sieben oder acht

Started making trouble in my neighborhood
Hanno iniziato a fare guai nel mio quartiere
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
Ho avuto una piccola rissa e mia mamma si è spaventata

I begged and pleaded with her day after day
Ho supplicato e pregato lei giorno dopo giorno

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
Ho fischiettato per un taxi e quando è arrivato vicino
The license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror
La targa diceva "fresco" e aveva dei dadi nello specchietto
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
Se c'era qualcosa che potevo dire è che questo taxi era raro
