El Vampiro
Ratones Paranoicos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
en toda la ciudad
la fiesta será buena,
hasta que alguien llegará.
El vampiro disfrazado de amigo,
y en tu hermosa yugular,
un gran beso te dará.
Siempre tiene ganas de volar
y vende muchas cosas,
que nunca te dará.
El vampiro afila los colmillos
y en tu hermosa yugular,
un gran beso te dará.
La noche se hace día
y en toda la ciudad,
la fiesta ya se acaba
y nadie dormirá.
El vampiro disfrazado de amigo
a la tumba volverá,
por que el día le hace mal.
The lyrics of Ratones Paranoicos's song, "El Vampiro," tell the story of a deceiving vampire lurking in the city during the night. The first stanza creates a setting and mood for the song, as the day turns into night and a party is about to begin. However, the party will not be as it seems because someone unexpected will arrive - the vampire. The next stanza describes the vampire in disguise as a friend, but he has other intentions. The words "en tu hermosa yugular, un gran beso te dará" (in your beautiful jugular, a big kiss he will give you) reveal the true nature of the vampire, and he will use the opportunity to bite his victim.
In the following stanza, the lyrics portray the vampire as a restless creature who sells things that people will never receive. This line may allude to the fact that the vampire "sells" immortality but will never actually give it to his victims. The final stanza brings the story to an end, as the night turns into day, and the party is over. The vampire will return to his tomb because daylight hurts him.
Overall, "El Vampiro" is a song about deception and danger. The vampire is a metaphor for those who appear as friends but have harmful intentions. The lyrics showcase the seductive and alluring nature of the vampire, but also the consequences of his actions.
