Panteón Rococó blend several styles of popular music such as rock, punk, salsa, cumbia, mariachi, reggae, ska, and also mestizo music into a very energetic, groovy sound. As they are very political people and sympathize with the EZLN in Chiapas, some of their lyrics contain political statements, but many others are love songs.
While very popular in Mexico, they are not so known in Europe, hence their contributions and tours there.

Contratando mercenarios
Haciendo un gran negocio
Con mentiras y engaños
Llenaste las ciudades con
Mensajes de odio
Sembrando siempre
Miedo con spots
Siempre te apoyaron los peores
Criminales,obispos y jueces
Los narco militares,soldados
Gobernadores,promotores

The lyrics of Panteon Rococo’s song "Democracia Fecal" (Fecal Democracy) touch on the theme of political corruption and propaganda, questioning the nature of democracy and power. The first verse describes how those in power have gained their position through hiring mercenaries and spreading lies and hatred through media campaigns. They use fear tactics to control the populace and appeal to the worst aspects of society, such as criminals, judges, and military figures with ties to organized crime.
The chorus relays the message that this type of democracy smells bad and is supported by racists, alluding to the idea that the current political regime is inherently flawed and perpetuates inequality and discrimination. The second verse calls out the politicians who promise change and improvement but ultimately deliver the same corrupt policies as their predecessors. The repeated lines "Mentira, Mentira, La misma porquería" (Lies, Lies, The same shit) emphasize that the facade of democracy is simply a repetition of the same issues without any real change or progress.
