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.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Te vi condenar a Irak y Vietnam
Te vi engañar a la libertad yo vi que caian las
Bombas y solo se oía un ruido terrible
Reza reza
La niña se cansa de aviones y balas
Hoy quiere parar esa lluvia de fuego
Hoy quiero que siga jugando el juego que
Nunca se olvidara jamas jamas
Salvame salvame
Salvame salvame salvame
Salvame salvame
Save my, save my, save my
Te vi condenar a Irak y Vietnam
Te vi engañar a la libertad yo vi que caían las
Bombas y solo se oía un ruido terrible
Rezar rezar
Salvame, salvame, salvame
Salvame the USA
Salvame the USA
Salvame the USA
El mundo no gira si no lo alimenta
La risa de un niño y la fuerza del aire
Oía la noche cantar sus fortunas
Uniendo las madres una por una
Salvame, salvame, salvame
Salvame the USA
Salvame the USA
Salvame the USA
Yo vi que caían las
Bombas y solo se oía un ruido terrible
Reza
"Salvame" by Panteón Rococó is a song that addresses the brutal and destructive nature of war, particularly in the context of US intervention in Iraq and Vietnam. It opens with the plea "sálvame," meaning save me, which is repeated throughout the song. The lyrics describe the devastation caused by bombs and the sound of explosions that drown out all other noises. The song calls on the listener to pray for salvation and suggests that a child's laughter and the power of nature are the key to breaking the cycle of violence and destruction.
The second verse focuses on the perspective of a young girl who is tired of the constant barrage of war and wants to end the rain of fire. The lyric "quiero que siga jugando el juego que nunca se olvidara jamas jamas" translates to "I want the game to keep playing that will never be forgotten ever." This line seems to suggest that the young girl does not want to forget the pain and suffering caused by war, so that we can all work towards preventing it from happening again in the future.
Overall, this song is a powerful plea for peace and an end to the destruction caused by war. It emphasizes the importance of valuing human life and the necessity of finding alternative ways to resolve conflicts.
