la rueda del roedor
Malicia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Letra: M.Escobar)
(Música: Malicia)

ES UNO MàS EL ELEGIDO,
EL PUEBLO LLORA POR SU ERROR.
EL ROEDOR BUSCA DESTINO
TRATA DE ENCONTRAR SU PORCIà"N.
DESESPERANTE ES LA AMBICIà"N
PARA LLEGAR Y DEVORAR
ARMàNDOSE SU JAULA, SU MANSIà"N.

LLEGàS, TRANSàS,
ROBàS, TE VAS
LLEGARàN, TRANSARàN,
ROBARàN, SE IRàN.

SALE A CORRER, A OLFATEAR
QUIEN SACA PROVECHO DE MàS.
NECESIDAD LO QUE LE SOBRA
PUES LA TRAMPERA NUNCA ESTà.
RUEDA EN LA RUEDA DEL ROEDOR
LEJOS DE ESTAR PISANDO TIERRA
VENDIENDO IMAGEN SENSIBLE SOCIAL.

LLEGàS, TRANSàS,
ROBàS, TE VAS




LLEGARàN, TRANSARàN,
ROBARàN, SE IRàN.

Overall Meaning

The song "La Rueda del Roedor" by the band Malicia is a commentary on the cycle of corruption and greed that plagues societies. The lyrics describe an individual who has been chosen to be a leader, but who ultimately fails the people and causes them to suffer. The "roedor" or rodent in the lyrics is a metaphor for those who seek power and wealth at any cost, constantly searching for their fortune and ignoring the consequences of their actions. The rodent is driven by a desperate ambition to succeed, even as it traps itself in a cage of its own making. The cycle of corruption continues as others follow the rodent's example, perpetuating the same destructive behavior.


The song's chorus, with its repeated refrain of "llegás, transás, robás, te vas" ("you arrive, you barter, you steal, you leave"), drives home the idea that this destructive cycle is unending. Those who come after the rodent will follow the same pattern of corruption and greed, perpetuating the cycle.


Overall, the lyrics of "La Rueda del Roedor" offer a bleak view of human nature, highlighting the endless desire for power and wealth that causes so much harm in the world. The song is a call to break the cycle of corruption and seek a better way of living.
