Spanish term or phrase: fue ni mandao a hacer

These are techno-cumbia songs, part of a fitness game, to be translated into English.
In the song "Zu bailaito", I'm not sure what this phrase means in this context about a guy who just got married:

EN LA PARRANDA LAS COSAS IVAN BIEN
EL CURRULAO **FUE NI MANDAO A HACER**
EL TIPO YA CASAO
SE LA GOZO ENRUMBAO
DE TANTA FIESTA YA NI VEÍA BIEN

EL NUEVO NOVIO ESTABA BIEN ANIMAO
Y AHI EN SU CUENTO SE SENTIA ENAMORAO
SE DESCUIDO LA NIÑA
SE LA LLEVO A LA ESQUINA
Y SIN SABERLO COGIO A LA QUE NO ES

Y EL TIPO SE LLEVO...

ZU REGAÑITO
ZU QUEBRADITO
ZU CASTIGAITO
ZU ZU ZU ZU

ZU SOBRECITO
ZU DOLORCITO
ZU DESCANCITO
ZU ZU ZU ZU

Thanks for your help!
