Busca un problema
Natalia Lafourcade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Busca, busca, tu lo puedes encontrar
Corre, corre a la cama de mamá
Dile que esta noche no vas a llegar
A la casa, a la casa
Busca, busca en tus zapatos ya
Un cigarro, tu lo puedes encontrar
Busca, busca a la persona que hará
Que tus sueños solos se hagan realidad
Entrar de puntitas nadie escuchará
Tus zapatos a las doce de la noche
Corre y a la cama ponte a pensar
Que dirás al día siguiente a tu papá
Y
Pueden correrte de tu casa
O castigarte la semana
Pueden prohibirte las bebidas
Pero tu eres dueño de tu vida
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, uhe oh
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, uhe oh
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, uhe oh
Pa, pa, pa, pa, uhe oh
Pueden correrte de tu casa
O castigarte la semana
Pueden prohibirte las bebidas
Pero tu eres dueño de tu vida
Pueden correrte de tu casa
O castigarte la semana
Pueden prohibirte las bebidas
Tu haces lo que quieras con tu vida
Pueden correrte de tu casa
O castigarte la semana
Pueden prohibirte las bebidas
Pero tu eres dueño de tu vida
Pero tu haces lo que quieras con tu vida
The playful and upbeat melody of Natalia Lafourcade's "Busca un problema" belies a deeper message of youthful rebellion and self-determination. The lyrics encourage the listener to seek out trouble and challenge the rules imposed upon them by parents and authority figures. The opening lines, "Busca, busca, un problema allá / Busca, busca, tu lo puedes encontrar" suggest a willingness to engage with risk and danger in order to escape the monotony of everyday life. The singer is urged to sneak out of the house, smoke a cigarette, and pursue the person who will make their dreams come true.
The lyrics depict a struggle between a desire for freedom and the consequences of breaking the rules. The second verse describes the singer sneaking around in the dark, trying not to be heard by anyone. They know that getting caught will lead to punishment, but they are determined to exercise their autonomy. The chorus reminds the listener that they are the masters of their own destiny, and that they have the power to make their own choices. The repetition of the phrase, "Pero tu eres dueño de tu vida," emphasizes this point.
Overall, "Busca un problema" can be interpreted as a call to youth to embrace their rebellious impulses and take control of their lives. It acknowledges that there will be consequences for this behavior, but asserts that freedom and self-expression are worth taking risks for.
