Si Disney Despertase
Fito Páez Lyrics

In Fito Paez's song "Si Disney Despertase," the singer reflects on the changes in the world and in the entertainment industry. The lyrics convey a sense of nostalgia for the past, particularly for the cinema, which has lost its popularity. The singer also talks about returning to the city where the Poseidon (a reference to the Greek god of the sea) capsized, and where Papillon (a reference to the book and movie about a man imprisoned on Devil's Island) escaped. The line "Woody tenía razón" refers to the animated movie "Toy Story" and suggests that the character Woody's optimistic outlook on life was correct. The chorus repeats the phrase "Si Disney despertase" (If Disney woke up), implying that the entertainment industry has lost its magic and needs to wake up from its slumber.

The second verse highlights the fleeting nature of time and references notable people and places such as filmmaker Stanley Kubrick and the city of Cairo. The phrase "si walt se animase" (if Walt came to life) further emphasizes the singer's desire for a return to the golden age of cinema and entertainment. The final lines of the song speak to the uncertainty of the future, with the singer wondering who will make us laugh and who will make us cry.
