Chico escaparate
Nosoträsh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
para lucir todo tu arte.
Te mirarán y pensarán
hoy comenzaré a ahorrar.
Si es que soy feliz sólo cuando tú no estás,
me has llenado tanto que ya no me cabe más,
estar contigo es como estar sin más,
Te pasearé por todas las calles,
pegadita a ti y sin soltarte.
Me mirarán y pensarán
hoy la voy a matar.
Si es que soy feliz sólo cuando tú no estás,
me has llenado tanto que ya no me cabe más,
estar contigo es como estar sin más,
es hora de temer, así que aparta.
Si es que soy feliz sólo cuando tú no estás,
me has llenado tanto que ya no me cabe más,
estar contigo es como estar sin más,
es hora de temer, así que apártate.
The lyrics of "Chico escaparate" by Nosoträsh tell the story of a woman who is tired of her partner and wants to get rid of him. She imagines putting him in a display window so that everyone can admire him but at the same time, she also wants to show the world that she doesn't need him to be happy. She walks with him through the streets, but all the while she's planning to get rid of him. She even thinks that someone might kill her because they are jealous of her having such a perfect man by her side.
The song is somewhat of a bitter breakup anthem, an expression of frustration and unhappiness with a partner. The lyrics are somewhat dark, and the way they're sung is almost melancholic. The narrative is clear and concise, with the woman's frustration clearly communicated throughout the song. Her conflicted emotions are also evident, as she both wants to get rid of the man in her life but is also afraid to be alone.
