Boikot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
engañan a la audiencia a diario manipulando informativos
Karraskal, Karraskal
que maldita serenata
Karraskal, Karraskal
No nos des más la lata
No son pocos los hechos que acontecen, los problemas con
protestas combativas
No nos interesa la corona, ni si se mea en las bragas la duquesa
lo que pasa es que no teneis vergüenza para dar noticas serias
Karraskal, Karraskal
que maldita serenata
Karraskal, Karraskal
No nos des mas la lata
Karraskal, Karraskal
qué maldita serenata
Karraskal, Karraskal
Ya no metes mas la pata
The lyrics to "Karraskal" by Boikot seem to be a critique of mainstream news media, specifically the ways in which they manipulate and distort information to suit their own agendas. The band clearly expresses a deep distrust of the media, saying that they "adulteran el contenido" (adulterate the content) and "manipulando informativos" (manipulate the news).
The chorus of the song ("Karraskal, Karraskal / que maldita serenata / Karraskal, Karraskal / No nos des más la lata") seems to be a direct message to the media, telling them to stop bothering the band with their biased reporting.
The song also touches on the idea that there are important events happening in the world that the media is simply ignoring. The band points out that "No son pocos los hechos que acontecen" (there are many events happening), but that the media only pays attention to things that are "una parida" (nonsense).
