Tu Condena
Boikot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Las horas se te pasan lentas
Tu condena has cumplido
Ya no tienes donde ir
¡No!
Cumpliendo tu condena
Los minutos se te pasan lentos
Cuanto tiempo te has tirado
Como dos viejos amigos
Buscando la última farmacia
Quien tiene la receta
Que nos puedes conseguir
Yo no voy, yo no voy
A tu fiesta particular
Déjame de pie a un lado
Espero no tener que sonreír
demuestra tu condena así
déjame de pie y no aguanto
demuestra tu condena así
Y contando los segundos
Y cumpliendo tu condena
Como dos viejos mendigos
Buscando tu calor
Como dos viejos bandidos
Buscando la esperanza a medias
Déjame de pie a un lado
Espero no tener que sonreír
demuestra tu condena así
déjame de pie y no aguanto
demuestra tu condena así
The song "Tu Condena" by Boikot speaks about the experience of serving time in prison and the loneliness that comes with it. The lyrics begin by outlining how time seems to stand still when one is in prison, with the hours and minutes passing by slowly. The singer suggests that the person has already served their sentence, but now has nowhere to go. Rather than going to a "party" or celebration, the singer chooses to distance themselves and remain on the sidelines, unwilling to participate in someone's supposed joy at being freed from prison.
As the song continues, the imagery becomes more vivid. The singer conjures up the image of two old friends searching for a pharmacy, hoping to find some kind of escape from their current situation. Despite the search, there seems to be no remedy for their predicament. The lyrics then compare the situation to that of two old bandits, searching for a half-hearted hope. The ending of the song brings back the focus to the singer, who begs to be allowed to stand aside and not have to pretend to be something they are not, while also acknowledging the loneliness and struggle that comes with serving a sentence.
Overall, "Tu Condena" is a poignant and reflective song about the experience of incarceration and the emotional toll it can take on an individual.

De inicio a fin - la historia de muchas noches que se urgen a sí mismas a volver, aveces lo logran, otras casi. Vámonos a algún lado ... a tomar un trago.
