Spanish term or phrase: somos feas y pestamos y pero renamas hoto
its from a song
tyler
English translation:We're ugly and we stink, but we rule, faggot ...
Explanation:
The lyrics are actually spelled incorrectly. They should read "Somos feos apestamos y pero reinamos joto", which comes from a Slipnot song. This of course is followed by another explitive, which I would rather not put here.

I hope this helps give the song more meaning!
