Ratones Paranoicos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
de tanto caminar
hace dos horas que ando
detrás de un poco de grasss.
Sigo dando vueltas solo
y me digo otra no hay
parezco un alienado, nena
Yo quiero mi pedazo
por qué no me lo das
si yo ya puse plata
y el pedazo no está.
Maldigo a tu hermana
maldigo esta ciudad
a veces tengo ganas
de empezar a llorar.
The song "Rock Del Pedazo" by Ratones Paranoicos is a blues-rock number that tells the story of a man who's looking for a piece of grass, a term used for marijuana. The singer of the song is exhausted from walking around for two hours in search of the substance, and despite having paid for it, he's yet to receive it. Frustrated and disorientated, he roams around the city aimlessly and curses it.
The lyrics reflect the singer's desperation for escape from the mundanity of everyday life, a theme that's not uncommon in rock music. The character's desire to find something that makes him feel alive is evident in his willingness to go to great lengths to procure the grass that he seeks. However, his search for escape has led him to feel like an outsider, disconnected from society.
Overall, "Rock Del Pedazo" highlights the struggles of addiction and the lengths one may go to avoid feeling empty. It also showcases the idea of how the things we chase in life may ultimately separate us from society and ourselves.
