Boikot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Todos tienen hambre
Han llegado al pueblo
Dispuestos a morder
Jueces sin rostro
Se han equivocado
Y han señalado
A un reo
Poneos en la cola y a empujar
Para ver quien es el que da mas
Esperaré sentado
Aunque llegue mi turno
Para ser juzgado
Orgías de gente
A las tres de la mañana
En un paso de cebra
De la castellana
Jueces sin rostro
Han señalado
Han ejecutado a un reo
Poneos en la cola y a empujar
Para ver quien es el que da mas
Esperaré sentado
Aunque llegue mi turno
Para ser juzgado
Si te disparan
Si te disparan
Poneos en la cola y a empujar
Para ver quien es el que da mas
Esperaré sentado
Aunque llegue mi turno
Para ser juzgado
The lyrics of Boikot's song "Jauría de perros" address the issue of power and injustice where the vulnerable and the marginalized are targeted by those in power. The song depicts a scene where a pack of hungry dogs has arrived in a town, ready to attack and bite, seemingly representing those in positions of power who are hungry for more, more control, more influence, and more privilege. The judges, who are supposed to be fair and just, have made a mistake and accused an innocent man of a crime he did not commit, suggesting that the justice system has failed. The accused is left helpless, as the mob mentality takes over, and people are more focused on their own interests rather than seeking justice.
The lyrics also touch on the theme of competition and indulgence. The line "Poneos en la cola y a empujar, para ver quien es el que da mas" translates to "Line up and push, to see who can give more." This portrays the imagery of a greedy, competitive society where people are more interested in outcompeting each other than living in harmony. The song also describes the scene of an orgy of people at 3 am on a pedestrian crossing on a busy road, representing the excesses and indulgences in life.
In short, Boikot's "Jauría de perros" is a social commentary on the fragile state of society, where power is abused, and people are consumed by their own greed and competitive tendencies.
