El reino de lo absurdo
Nach Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

bienvenido al reino de lo absurdo, reino de la pantomima
donde todos andamos al reves tio quieres entrar?

Estribillo:
vivo en el reino de la confusion
donde la vida es solo ilusion
aqui las cosas no son lo que son
reino de engaños, mentiras y traicion (x2)

En este reino todo tiene un precio
y el lenguaje de palacio aburre al necio
que prefiere no pensar y ni se esfuerza
aqui el que menos sabe es el que grita
quien le quita la razon al que la impone por la fuerza
si buscas trabajo tendras tu oportunidad
pero el puesto es pal sobrino del jefe vaya casualidad
la habilidad de ser inutil siempre beneficia
el mañoso curra el doble es un mediocre si la picia
y las noticias quieren solo audiencia
en este reino los niños ni se inmutan cuando ven violencia
es la television y su contradiccion
ella te dice consume y el gobierno que aprietes tu cinturon
misma situacion disparatada aqui la profesion mejor pagada
es dar patadas a un balon
si en este reino roba un pobre va a prision ladron incomodo
y si lo hace un rico le llaman cleptomano y se va al psicologo
mira alrededor donde esta el error
quien es tan tonto de llamar a un negro hombre de color
es el valor de un reino decadente
donde el pais que vela por la paz mundial es el que, mas
armas vende
no nadie lo entiende pero se resigna son presos del sobrepeso
y del sabor de un big mac me indigna el paradigma del progreso
es un enigma y dios es un reloj que nos estresa haciendo
tic-tac

Estribillo:
vivo en el reino de la confusion
donde la vida es solo ilusion
aqui las cosas no son lo que son
reino de engaños, mentiras y traicion (x2)

En este reino manda el marquetin y vale todo
podras vender un calcetin a precio de oro si encuentras el modo
tan solo muestra tu imagen de ganador porque aqui importa
la fachada
no se mira el interior veras un dedo acusador si fumas plantas naturales
y mientras venden droga etilica en todos los bares
tu sabes que si no puedes vivir sin esa dosis de tecnologia
en estos dias
de miedo y psicosis un mentiroso aqui es famoso por su encanto
un abogado hara que un hijo puta se paresca un santo
en este reino el engaño es un gran negocio
y torturar un animal en la plaza motivo de elogio
el ocio un privilegio si eres proletario pues saca pecho
ante el calvario
del prestamo hipotecario por un techo pasaras tu vida en filo
y a punto de irte al otro barrio ya eres propietario
respira tranquilo
crees que es injusto dilo no eres el unico protestas como
un ciudadano
o callas como un subdito es tipico ver como politicos
se insultan
y fabrican bombas nucleares para no usarlas nunca y ohhh
no les creo veo reos del desempleo sufren con razon
la cruel globalizacion y es que quien no tiene enchufe es
un bufon en este seudo
donde dios tiene dos nombres uno es dolar y otro es euro

Estribillo:
vivo en el reino de la confusion
donde la vida es solo ilusion
aqui las cosas no son lo que son
reino de engaños, mentiras y traicion (x2)

no es un cuento, pura realidad
el reino de lo absurdo, de la falsedad.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Nach's song "El reino de lo absurdo" describe a surreal and absurd world where everything is turned upside down. It's a place ruled by lies, deception, and confusion, where the truth is ignored, and deceit is rewarded. The song invites the listener to embrace the madness of this world, to see through its illusions, and to challenge its values.

The first verse depicts the land of pantomime, a place where everyone walks backward, and reality is distorted. The chorus repeats the phrase "I live in the kingdom of confusion," emphasizing the absurdity and disorientation of this world. The verse continues by portraying a society where everything has a price, and the powerful control the language of the palace, which bores the naive. The ones who know the least scream the loudest, and those who rely on their ability to deceive benefit the most.

The second verse exposes the troubling paradoxes of this world, where television portrays violence, and the government urges restraint. The most lucrative profession is kicking a ball, and the richest get away with theft while the poorest end up in jail. The verse concludes by revealing that God is a clock that stresses us out, and that the world is a paradigm of progress that ignores its own contradictions.

bienvenido al reino de lo absurdo, reino de la pantomima donde todos andamos al reves tio quieres entrar?
Welcome to the kingdom of the absurd, the kingdom of pantomime. Everyone walks backwards here, do you want to enter?

En este reino todo tiene un precio y el lenguaje de palacio aburre al necio que prefiere no pensar y ni se esfuerza aqui el que menos sabe es el que grita
In this kingdom, everything has a price and the language of the palace bores the fool who prefers not to think or make an effort. Here, the one who knows the least is the one who shouts the loudest.

quien le quita la razon al que la impone por la fuerza si buscas trabajo tendras tu oportunidad pero el puesto es pal sobrino del jefe vaya casualidad la habilidad de ser inutil siempre beneficia el mañoso curra el doble es un mediocre si la picia y las noticias quieren solo audiencia en este reino los niños ni se inmutan cuando ven violencia es la television y su contradiccion ella te dice consume y el gobierno que aprietes tu cinturon misma situacion disparatada aqui la profesion mejor pagada es dar patadas a un balon si en este reino roba un pobre va a prision ladron incomodo y si lo hace un rico le llaman cleptomano y se va al psicologo
Who takes the reason from the one who imposes it by force? If you're looking for a job, you'll have an opportunity, but the position is for the boss's nephew, what a coincidence. The ability to be useless always benefits, the sly one works twice as hard as a mediocre if he gets caught. The news only wants viewership, in this kingdom, children do not even flinch when they see violence on TV. The TV advises to consume, while the government advises to tighten your belt. In this absurd kingdom, the highest-paid profession is kicking a ball. If a poor person steals, they go to jail, if a rich person steals, they are called a kleptomaniac and go to therapy.

mirar alrededor donde está el error quien es tan tonto de llamar a un negro hombre de color es el valor de un reino decadente donde el país que vela por la paz mundial es el que, más armas vende no nadie lo entiende pero se resigna son presos del sobrepeso y del sabor de un big mac me indigna el paradigma del progreso es un enigma y dios es un reloj que nos estresa haciendo tic-tac
Look around and see where the mistake lies. Who is so foolish as to call a black person a 'man of color'? It is the value of a decadent kingdom where the country that safeguards the world's peace is the one that sells the most weapons. Nobody understands it, but they resign themselves to being prisoners of overweight and the taste of a big mac. The paradigm of progress angers me, it's an enigma and god is a clock that stresses us by ticking.

En este reino manda el marquetin y vale todo podras vender un calcetin a precio de oro si encuentras el modo tan solo muestra tu imagen de ganador porque aqui importa la fachada
In this kingdom, marketing rules, and anything goes. You can sell a sock at a high price if you find a way. Just show your winning image, because here the facade is what matters.

no se mira el interior veras un dedo acusador si fumas plantas naturales y mientras venden droga etilica en todos los bares tu sabes que si no puedes vivir sin esa dosis de tecnologia en estos dias de miedo y psicosis un mentiroso aqui es famoso por su encanto un abogado hara que un hijo puta se paresca un santo en este reino el engaño es un gran negocio y torturar un animal en la plaza motivo de elogio el ocio un privilegio si eres proletario pues saca pecho ante el calvario del prestamo hipotecario por un techo pasaras tu vida en filo y a punto de irte al otro barrio ya eres propietario respira tranquilo crees que es injusto dilo no eres el unico protestas como un ciudadano o callas como un subdito es tipico ver como politicos se insultan y fabrican bombas nucleares para no usarlas nunca y ohhh no les creo veo reos del desempleo sufren con razon la cruel globalizacion y es que quien no tiene enchufe es un bufon en este seudo donde dios tiene dos nombres uno es dolar y otro es euro
People don't look at what's inside, you will be judged harshly for smoking natural plants while they sell alcoholic drugs in every bar. You know that you can't live without that technology dose these days, and a liar is famous for his charm in this kingdom of fear and psychosis. A lawyer can make a son of a bitch look like a saint. Deception is a great business in this kingdom, torturing an animal in the square is a reason for praise. Leisure is a privilege if you are a proletarian, so puff out your chest when you face the agony of a mortgage loan. You will spend your life on the edge for a roof, and you will become an owner just as you're about to go to another world. Breathe easy, if you think it's unfair, say it out loud, you're not the only one protesting as a citizen, or stay silent like a subject. It's typical to see politicians insult each other and make nuclear bombs but never use them. I don't believe them, I see the unemployed suffer with reason through cruel globalization, and if you don't have any influence, you're a joker in this pseudo kingdom, where god has two names, one is the dollar, and the other is the euro.

no es un cuento, pura realidad el reino de lo absurdo, de la falsedad.
It's not a story, it's pure reality. The kingdom of the absurd and falsehood.

Estribillo: vivo en el reino de la confusion donde la vida es solo ilusion aqui las cosas no son lo que son reino de engaños, mentiras y traicion (x2)
Chorus: I live in the kingdom of confusion, where life is just an illusion. Things are not what they seem in this kingdom of deceit, lies, and betrayal.
