V.I.P.
Obús Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Noche de calor
No puedo dormir
Algo de beber
Enciendo el televisor

Paso los canales
Sin ninguna convicción
Anuncios de colonias
Y en vivo rolling stones

La cámara se mueve
Y para imagen en los vip's
Banqueros, gente guapa
Qué cojones pintan aquí

Con esa camiseta
Que su "secre" le compró
Con una lengua roja,
Su excelencia cambia el "look"

Mañana en el consejo
O mientras juega al golf
Presumirá con todos
Que mike jagger le saludó

La cámara se mueve
Y para imagen en los vip's
Ministros, guardaespaldas
Qué cojones pintan aquí

No señor,
No me engañan tus maneras
No señor,
No señor,
Vienes solo a que te vean
No señor

La cámara se mueve
Y para imagen en los vip's
La gente está de fiesta,
Qué cojones pintan aquí

No señor,
No me engañan tus maneras
No señor,
No señor,
Vienes solo a que te vean
No señor

No señor,
No me engañan tus maneras
No señor,
No señor,
Vienes solo a que te vean




No señor
...

Overall Meaning

The song "V.I.P." by the Spanish rock band Obús talks about the phenomenon of VIP culture in modern society, where people with power and influence are given special privileges and attention. The lyrics describe the singer's sleepless night, flipping through TV channels to find something to drink and watch. On the screen, the camera shows footage from a VIP area at a concert or event, where bankers, good-looking people, and even ministers and bodyguards are seen, along with the Rolling Stones.


The singer questions the presence and purpose of these people in the VIP area, mocking their fashion choices and behavior. He believes they are there only to be seen and to boast about the fact that they were near famous people like Mick Jagger. The chorus repeats the phrase "No señor, no me engañan tus maneras" (No, sir, your ways don't fool me) as a way of expressing his disdain for the VIP culture, which he sees as fake and superficial.


The song's message is especially relevant in modern times, where the divide between the rich and the poor has become more prominent and VIP culture is rampant, both in the entertainment industry and in politics. The song encourages listeners to question the fairness of this culture and to not be fooled by it.
