Emmanuel Horvilleur Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
llora la imagen de un santo bajo las luces de un león,
una furiosa estampida y ya estaba la televisión,
y de repente animales bailando plagan mi cancion.
Los monos tocaban a la mona, bailaba igual
el testimonio de todo lo nuestro,
menos de lo que paso.
Las mariposas están copulando
y llevo algunas dentro de mi
en un rato las verás volando,
y puede que te sientas feliz.
A las 12 te paso a buscar,
recordá que sos mía
12 y media estás lista,
para poder escapar.
Dos elefantes están apareándose en la habitación,
una jirafa que pinta sus labios con un rojo amor.
Los monos tocaban a la mona, bailaba igual
el testimonio de todo lo nuestro, menos de lo que paso.
Las mariposas están copulando
y llevo algunas dentro de mi.
En un rato las verás volando,
y puede que te sientas feliz
A las 12 te paso a buscar,
recordá que sos mía.
12 y media estás lista,
para poder escapar.
Dios creó todo y lo hizo con sus manos,
sus pies los usa para bailar,
en un rato lo veras creando
un paso para la humanidad.
A las 12 te paso a buscar, recordá que sos mía
12 y media estás lista, para poder escapar
The lyrics of Emmanuel Horvilleur's song "12_30" are full of fantastical imagery and metaphorical language that create a dream-like atmosphere. The opening lines describe a potential miracle happening in the room, where a saint's image is weeping under the lights of a lion. This creates a surreal mood that is further emphasized by the mention of a stampede that somehow results in the television being turned on, and animals dancing in the song. The metaphorical meanings of these references are unclear, and it seems like the song is saying that anything is possible in this imaginary world.
The second verse includes more animal imagery, with monkeys playing music and dancing with a female monkey. This could potentially represent some sort of primal and instinctual energy being expressed through music and movement. The lyrics also briefly touch upon the notion of memory and how it can be incomplete or inaccurate, with "the testimony of everything ours, but not of what happened." The final lines of the verse describe butterflies mating and carrying some of them inside the singer, suggesting some sort of connection or unity with nature.
The song's chorus repeatedly declares that the singer will pick up someone at 12 o'clock and whisk them away, emphasizing a sense of freedom and escape. The final verse brings up the idea of God creating everything and dancing, suggesting that even the divine can engage in creative expression through movement. Overall, the song's lyrics use surreal imagery and metaphorical language to explore themes of freedom, escape, and connection with nature.
