Mare
Hijos Del 5² Patio; Maldita Vecindad Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y me vine en camión a la ciudad
Vine a visitar a unos parientes
Que viven acá por Insurgentes
Muchas niñas lindas
Mucha tonta violencia
Mucho ruido y mucha gente
Mare
Mare niña
Una mañana me invitaron a pasear
Fui a Chapultepec, la Latino y Coyoacan
Mis parientes resultaron muy decentes
Y esa noche decidí irme a reventar
Mucha luz en la calle
Todo es despapaye
La verdad yo prefiero los hipiles
Y mejor me regreso a Yucatán
Mare
Mare niña
Y BOMBAS
The lyrics of "Mare" by Maldita Vecindad tell the story of someone who left their hometown of Yucatan and moved to the city to visit relatives. However, they quickly realize that the city is full of violence, noise, and people, and they feel overwhelmed by the chaos of the urban environment. They try to escape the city by returning to Yucatan, but they are torn as they meet a girl named Mare who invites them to go out and explore the city more. They go to different neighborhoods like Chapultepec, La Latina, and Coyoacan, becoming more and more intoxicated by the festive ambiance of the city. However, they soon discover that the city is not without its dangers as they hear bombs being detonated in the distance. Mare serves as a metaphor for the allure and danger of the city, as it tempts the singer to stay and continue to party, despite the potential consequences.
