Prou Especulació
Inadaptats Lyrics

The lyrics to Inadaptats' song "Prou Especulació" (Enough Speculation) are critical of the rampant gentrification and development taking place in Barcelona. The opening lines, "Barcelona no especulada; visca la terra! fora els imperis!" (Barcelona unspoiled; long live the land! Out with the empires!), express a desire to preserve the city's identity and resist the forces of capitalist development that threaten to destroy it. The reference to "imperis" (empires) suggests that the songwriters see the gentrification of Barcelona as part of a larger trend of colonization and domination by global capitalist forces.

The next lines, "Una ciutat privada dins d'una ciutat podrida" (A private city within a rotten city), convey a sense of alienation and disconnection caused by the rapid pace of development in the city. The idea that the city is "private" suggests that it is becoming increasingly inaccessible to ordinary people, with only those who can afford to buy property or pay high rents able to enjoy its amenities. The phrase "podrida" (rotten) implies that there is something fundamentally wrong with the way the city is being transformed, and that the benefits are going to a privileged few at the expense of the majority.
