Cógelo
Muchachito Bombo Infierno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
y no hubo más juego luego,
ya no se devolvió,
yo te tiré el balón
y no hubo más juego luego,
ya nunca más volvió...
Pues cógelo, cógelo,
antes de que toque el suelo...
cógelo...
Un paso de talón,
y tú solo chutaste luego
con mi pase de talón,
un pase de talón,
y tú solo chutaste luego,
siempre chupaste a gol.
Pues cógelo, cógelo,
sin duda cógelo
y sigue chupando luego...
a ver si marcas gol.
The song "Cógelo" by Muchachito Bombo Infierno is about sports, specifically football (or soccer). The lyrics describe a situation where the singer passes the ball to someone else, but they don't pass it back. Instead, they take the shot themselves and score a goal. The singer is left feeling frustrated that they didn't get to play more and contribute to the team. The chorus then encourages the listener to "cógelo" (catch it) before the ball hits the ground, implying that they should seize opportunities when they come their way.
The second verse continues with this sports metaphor, describing a "pase de talón" (backheel pass) that the singer makes to the listener. This time, however, the listener takes the shot and scores again. The phrase "chupaste a gol" (you sucked at goal) is used, which can be interpreted as the listener being selfish or not including the singer in the play. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the importance of seizing opportunities and taking risks.
