El Globo
Once Tiros Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

por todos lados se ven cara de terror
se escuchan cuentos creidos de la ficcion
dura es la realidad que toco vivir
el globo manda y te vigila al decidir
sobrevivir es la meta disfrazada
no servis de nada sino para cumplir
sobrevivir es la meta disfrazada
entre tanta cagada lo que queda es huir

sale en los diarios, radios o television
esta en la calle y en culquier situacion
calma el dolor solo pa'seguir con su empresa
mata los suenos,la gente no le interesa
ya hace un tiempo que lago anda mal
y cada ano avansa el bien materila
el hombre sufre y carga con su impotencia
es este el globo que te asfixia la cabeza





bueno seria ver a la gente cantando
verlos a todos por las calles feliz...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Once Tiros’s El Globo speak to the pervasive fear and sense of powerlessness present in society. The first verse paints a picture of people looking scared everywhere you go, as if they are constantly expecting the worst. Stories of fiction are a refuge from this harsh reality, but it is a reality that must be faced. The “globe” represents the power structure that oversees everything and decides who survives. Survival is the ultimate goal, even if it means disguising this as something else. The second verse expands on this idea, with the “globe” being present in every situation and even relieving pain solely to keep the population productive. Dreams are crushed and people don’t matter to those in charge. This has been going on for a while and things only seem to be getting worse, with material gain being the only thing that advances. The final lines express a yearning for a society that can be happy and carefree, to see people singing and enjoying life on the streets.


Overall, El Globo serves as a critique of oppressive societal structures that prioritize material gain and power over individual autonomy and happiness. The “globe” functions as a symbol for this structure, a force that is always watching and controlling. The song calls for the possibility of liberation, a future where people can live their lives freely and happily.

Letra

Por todos lados se ven caras de terror
Se escuchan cuentos creídos de la ficción
Dura es la realidad que tocó vivir
El globo manda y te vigila al decidir

Sobrevivir es la meta disfrazada
No servís de nada sino para cumplir
Sobrevivir es la meta disfrazada
Entre tanta cagada lo que queda es huir

Sale en los diarios, radios o televisión
Está en la calle y en cualquier situación
Calma el dolor solo pa' seguir con su empresa
Mata los sueños la gente no le interesa

Ya hace un tiempo se sabe que algo anda mal
Y cada año avanza el bien material
El hombre sufre y carga con su impotencia
Es este globo que te asfixia la cabeza

Bueno sería ver a la gente cantando
Verlos a todos por la calle feliz.
