Marita
Los Cunches Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
esta tu risa fumando wiros
en la Arequipa bajo el sol
tenemos suerte
no está la policia
no está la policia
pero a ti te da igual
Estaba en un bar
sintiendome en un bar
el mismo vacio de siempre
ya no te escucho
entre la bulla
de estos tiempos
lo que nos falta es que bajen el volumen
que bajen el volumen
hay algo afuera también
lo que nos falta es que rías con la gente
que rías con la gente
para alejar a la muerte
In Los Cunches's song Marita, the lyrics describe the current state of the world and the struggles people face in their everyday lives. The song references the laughter of a friend as a source of comfort during difficult times, specifically while smoking "wiros" in the Arequipa sun. The mention of luck in avoiding police suggests the presence of societal issues and the need for escape.
The second verse conveys a sense of disconnection and isolation, as the singer finds themselves feeling a sense of emptiness in a bar during these troubling times. Amidst the noise and bustle of modern life, they long for a decrease in volume and yearn for human connection, someone to laugh with and distract from the perils of death.
