Fuera de Control
Fito Páez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Living in the city
Ex yonkees en tu casa difrazados de burgueses
Living in the city
Y vos shake
Living in the city
Las cosas ya están fuera de control
Living in the city
Mis hermanos metiendose en un negocio sucio hoy
Living in the city
Chicas caras debajo del quirofano buscando solucion
Living in the city
Y el tango argentino moderno no se puede escuchar
Living in the city
En los adeptos no se puede fumar
Living in the city
Shake it up, move la cadera
Living in the city
You're the dust, you trust
Living in the city
Con la cocaina siempre llega el dolor
Es la forma perfecta para no sentir amor
Yo siempre te espero for ever in my life
Living in the city
Ey babe don't cry in god we trust
Ey babe don't cry in god we trust
I love you for ever in my life
Monos, ciegos in the
Living in the city
I'm a crazy men
Living in the city
The rest of my life
Walking only in time
The rest of my life
Walking around around around around
Living in the city
Caminando calles de america latina
Living in the city
No te metas jamas con alguien de mi familia
Living in the city
Aqui en argentina charly hace mucho ya escribio
Yendo de la cama al living
Si queres escuchá y cantá y si no bancatelá
Living in the city
Si queres escuchá
Walking around around around around
A mi
Living in the city
The song "Fuera de Control" by Fito Paez speaks to the chaos and disorder that can take over life in the city. The opening lines describe the various troubled individuals that one may encounter in this environment, such as madmen, prostitutes, and sick people. The city is portrayed as a place where people come to hide behind masks and appearances, as represented by the ex-New Yorkers dressed as bourgeoisie. The central message of the song is that things have gotten out of hand in the city. The repeated refrain, "Las cosas ya están fuera de control" (Things are already out of control), emphasizes this point.
The lyrics touch on various negative aspects of urban life, such as the drug addiction that brings pain along with momentary highs, the high cost of cosmetic surgery and the great price one is willing to pay for it, the fact that modern tango can't be heard since there are no smoking sections anymore and how one brother can end up in a dirty business. The song's chorus invites listeners to shake it up and dance as a way to keep moving despite the madness of city life. The repeated line "Walking around around around around" represents the feeling of getting lost in the city's endless streets and routines.
