Purple Yellow Red and Blue
The Chamanas Lyrics

The Chamanas's song "Purple Yellow Red and Blue" is an upbeat and catchy tune with introspective lyrics about desires and dreams. The lyrics express the singer's longing for a life of ecstasy and sensations, represented by the psychedelic colors purple, yellow, red, and blue. The desire to escape the mundane and boring routine of everyday life is a recurring theme, represented by the line "El trabajo ya no es para mí" (Work is no longer for me) and "Desesperarme es inútil" (Despairing is useless). Instead, the singer longs for fame and power, represented by the lines "De grande yo quisiera ser famosa en la televisión" (As an adult, I want to be famous on television) and "De grande yo quisiera ser heredera de mucho poder" (As an adult, I want to be an inheritor of much power). Despite these ambitious desires, the singer maintains a sense of self-care and acknowledges that only time can heal their disappointments and struggles.

The repetition of the phrase "I just wanna be" emphasizes the singer's desire for something more, a sense of fulfillment and purpose that they have yet to find. The chorus's incorporation of the colors purple, yellow, red, and blue is a reference to the song's title and highlights the song's psychedelic and dreamy vibe. The line "Sólo me faltó algo en qué creer" (I just lacked something to believe in) expresses the singer's hope that everything will fall into place, a sense of faith that they will find meaning and purpose in life.
