El 7º De Michigan
La Polla Records Lyrics

The lyrics for La Polla Records’ song “El 7º De Michigan” are a commentary on the corrupt practices of those in power, specifically politicians and businessmen. The song starts by describing the daily meetings among the “hogs” (representing the elites) where they sell countries and buy souls. The term “hogs” suggests that these individuals are greedy, selfish, and only care about their own interests. The use of the word “souls” implies that they are willing to exploit and manipulate people for their own gain.

The next lines discuss how to deal with problems in the business. If they start losing money, they simply call in the cavalry to fix the situation. The phrase “No hay revolución ¿Eh guarros?” (“There’s no revolution, right pigs?”) implies that they are not afraid of any popular uprising or change in the status quo as they have the power and resources to maintain their position.

The chorus emphasizes the idea that the New York Stock Exchange has control over everything. They glorify the stock exchange in the name of God, which is meant to be ironic since the actions of these individuals go against religious beliefs. Overall, “El 7º De Michigan” is a critique of the wealthy and powerful, who exploit others for their own benefit and manipulate society to maintain their position.
