Dueño de un Bar
Los Mentas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Deden deden deden Me gustaría ser el dueño de un bar
Con muchas putas cervezas y billar
Sin gente estúpida queriendo ser casual
Yo tras la barra tomando sin pagar

Deden deden deden Dueño de un baaaaaar

No gastaría mucho en decoración
No se reserva el derecho de admisión
Vídeos porno en la television
Habra tequila ginebra vodka y ron

Deden deden deden Dueño de un baaaaaar

Hay una banda en el fondo del bar
Tocan versiones de siniestro total
Todos borrachos empiezan a cantar
Beben gritando que no van a pagar

Deden deden deden Dueño de un baaaaaar





Deden deden deden

Overall Meaning

The song 'Dueño de un Bar' by Los Mentas is about a person who dreams of owning a bar where they can drink without paying, have a bunch of beer, pool tables, and porn on TV. The song expresses a desire to have a space that is not filled with people trying to be cool or pretentious. The lyrics talk about how the bar would have no dress code, and anyone could come in and enjoy themselves without worrying about their appearance or having to meet any requirements. The owner would not spend much on decoration, but the place would have a band at the back that played covers of Siniestro Total. The band would create a festive atmosphere that encouraged everyone to drink, sing, and dance while getting drunk.


The song's lyrics invite the listener to imagine a world where they can forget about their problems and enjoy themselves completely. The bar's atmosphere would be one of acceptance and unity, where everyone is equal and can enjoy themselves freely. The lyrics are nostalgic about a time when bars were places of escape and enjoyment where people could forget their problems and be in the company of others. The song's theme is not about advocating for excessive drinking or debauchery, but rather about delivering an escape from everyday life.
