The lyrics to CantaJuego's song El Zapatero describe a shoemaker who is constantly working and repairing shoes. The actions of wrapping, unwrapping, and stretching the shoes are repeated throughout the song, punctuated by the sounds "pam, pam, pam." The shoemaker's work is never-ending, as he must constantly mend shoes without pause.
The song can be interpreted in different ways, depending on the context. It can be seen as a celebration of hard work and dedication, as the shoemaker tirelessly performs his trade to keep people's shoes in good condition. Alternatively, it can be viewed as a comment on the monotony of certain types of work, as the shoemaker performs the same actions over and over again without variation.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of rhythm and repetition, reflected in the repetitive melody and percussion of the song. The cycle of wrapping, unwrapping, and stretching the shoes creates a hypnotic effect, drawing the listener into the shoemaker's world.
