Lacanao
Once Tiros Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mediocre la policia la que tenemos
que andar educarte busca pelearte y aca estoy.

En medio de estos señores, que con abuso,
tratan de introsos a gente libre
haciendo uso de su condicion

Mediocre son, mediocre son.

Se habla de volencia como primera noticia,y en portada solo salen una parte de los tantos,
pero no se deduce que policia son traficantes,
son delincuentes son mala leche son asesinos.

Son violentos, mediocre son.

Cuidado con lacanao que vas pre,
cuidado con lacanao que vas pre.

Y alli voy no digas tinage,
no rajes, no corras no huyas,
y nunca te calles la boca,
rota por miles de idiotas,
que salen de malos palos
y van por la vida, de golpeadores.

A veces juegan con la justicia,
haciendo racia por simple gracia,
es un deporte precioso,
al calavoso, o al calavoso.

Cuidado con lacanao que vas pre,
cuidado con lacanao que vas pre.

Cabrona policia, que cuando aparece,
cabrona policia, va con intereses,
cabrona policia, donde esta el revaño,
cabrona policia, afan de hacer daño,
dicen lo siento, es mi trabajo.

Cuidado con lacanao que vas pre,
cuidado con lacanao que vas pre. (2veces)

Mediocre son mediocre son mediocre son

"cuidadoconlacanaoqueva'pre"...... mediocres son

Overall Meaning

The song "Lacanao" by Once Tiros is a powerful commentary on the corruption of the police force and their abuse of power towards the people they are meant to protect. The lyrics criticize the mediocrity of the police and their tendency to use violence as their first solution, often brutalizing innocent people of the community they serve. The song also highlights how the media typically portrays only one side of the story, ignoring the police's involvement in illegal activities such as drug trafficking, corruption, and murder. The chorus "Cuidado con lacanao que vas pre" warns the listener to be careful of the police, who are portrayed as untrustworthy and dangerous.

The lines "Cabrona policia, que cuando aparece, va con intereses" reveals that the police have ulterior motives, and their actions are motivated by self-interest rather than serving justice. The song insinuates that the police often act above the law with the support of the government and the media who perpetuate their abusive behavior. The use of the term "mediocre" reinforces the idea that the police are average, unremarkable individuals who have been given too much power and are misusing it for their own gain.
