Alta Suciedad
Árbol Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
tiene miedo de pelear
no se quiere romper las manos
porque tiene que cantar
el mismo de protector bucal
el bombo de la ciudad
le golpea en el culo
golpea y nada mas
estribillo
alta suciedad
basura de la alta suciedad
no se puede confiar en nadie mas
pipi tiene prisa
por aprender a ladrar
si solo es un ser don nadie
lo respetaran
es un chico muy malo
se porto muy mal
pero lo respetamos
porque somos lo mas bajo

interpreting "Árbol's" song "Alta Suciedad", we can see that the lyrics talk about the fear and cowardice that the champion feels. The champion is afraid of fighting because he doesn't want to harm his hands, as it will prevent him from singing, his primary profession. Even though he has a mouthguard, he is fearful of breaking his hand. The next lines mention the drum ("bombo") of the city, which represents the rhythm of life that beats around him constantly. This drum is the only thing that can keep pushing him forwards despite his fear. The song's chorus talks about the high society ("alta suciedad"), which is the slang for the wealthy and corrupt part of society. It highlights the idea that nobody can trust anyone in this world and that criminal behavior is the only way to obtain respect if you are not wealthy.
The song's second verse mentions a character named Pipi, who is desperate to learn how to bark just like a dog, which shows that he is trying to become someone he is not. Pipi is described as a nobody and a bad boy, but he is still respected in his community because they are all lowly criminals. The second chorus of the song repeats the idea of the first chorus and reinforces the concept of high society being corrupt.
Overall, the song "Alta Suciedad" by Árbol talks about the darker shades of human nature and how people living on the fringes of society do whatever they need to survive. It emphasizes the importance of respecting each other, even if they are criminals and have done bad things. The song indicates that the high society is the corrupt one, and being part of it does not guarantee that a person is good.
