El último es “Tobogán”, editado con la disquera zaragozana Grabaciones en el Mar, en el que ofrecen 11 nuevas canciones en las que dan distintas perspectivas del pop: psicodelia americana, algo de surf, momentos íntimos, power-pop… Algunos dicen que es su mejor trabajo desde “Azul eléctrica emoción”, su disco más aclamado.

High School
La Granja Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The kids want a little action,
the kids want a little fun,
the kids all have to get their kicks
before the evening's done.

'Cause they're going to
(high school)
rah, rah, rah

(high school)
sis, boom, bah
(high school)
hey, hey, hey,
you better let them have their way.

They only wanna shake it up, baby,
dance to the rockin' bands.
They only want a little excitement,
they like to get a little outta hand

'Cause they're goin' to
(high school)
rah, rah, rah
(high school)
sis, boom, bah
(high school)
hey, hey, hey,
you better let them have their way.

The kids know what the deal is.
They're getting farther out everyday.
We're gonna be takin' over.
You better get out of the way.

'Cause we're goin' to
(high school)
rah, rah, rah
(high school)
sis, boom, bah
(high school)
hey, hey, hey
You better get out of the way.
(high school)
rah, rah, rah
(high school)
sis, boom, bah
(high school)

hey, hey, hey,
you better get out of the way.

Overall Meaning

The song "High School" by La Granja is a lively and upbeat celebration of youth, rebellion, and the pursuit of excitement. The lyrics paint a picture of teenagers wanting to break free from the restrictions of their daily routines and let loose, even if just for a night. The repeated refrain of "rah, rah, rah, sis, boom, bah" is a nod to classic school spirit cheers, but it takes on a slightly more subversive tone in this context, as it's used to rally the kids in their quest for fun and freedom.

The lines "they only wanna shake it up, baby, dance to the rockin' bands" and "they like to get a little outta hand" capture the youthful energy and rebellious streak that's being celebrated here. The kids aren't interested in following the rules or doing what they're told; they want to make their own fun and push boundaries. This sentiment is echoed in the final verse, where the kids are confidently proclaiming that they're "getting farther out everyday" and that they're "gonna be takin' over."

Overall, "High School" is a catchy, energetic ode to youthful rebellion, and it's sure to resonate with anyone who remembers what it felt like to be a teenager wanting to break free from the mundane routines of everyday life.
