La Cuca Fera
Roger Mas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I pujo per la carretera,
quin llamp de cel que hi ha a Solsona!
I és que vinc de Barcelona
i la cosa no tenia espera,
cuca fera, de cap manera...

Ja he apagat el mòbil
i he obert tota la finestra.
No fos cas que algú em trobi,
avui farem una festa
amb la pantera més guerrera.

Quin pet de sol que fa prop del cel,
dels pobles veig la resplendor.
Brisa encara freda em remou d'arrel,
arrupit al ventre d'una flor
de cirera, encisera.

Sóc una cuca fera xafardera,
o sóc l'home primavera,
que a la balma, al peu de la cinglera,
es deixa péixer amb la cullera
d'una fera punyetera.

I quan penso en el cirerer...
I quan penso en el cirerer,
l'ombra que fa, l'ombra que fa, l'ombra que fa...

Ho remenes tot, vas amunt i avall
i mai no et deixes cap retall,
perquè ets una cuca fera xafardera:
tu ets la meva primavera





A la balma de la cinglera ma pantera és cuca fera.

Overall Meaning

The song "La Cuca Fera" by Roger Mas talks about the journey of the singer as he travels from Barcelona to Solsona, a town in Catalonia. The lyrics describe the beauty of the surroundings, the warmth of the sun, the reflection of the lights in the towns, and the cool breeze. He turns off his phone and opens all the windows of his car so that he can enjoy every bit of nature that comes along the way.


The singer feels the pull of the "Cuca Fera," or the wild bug, that makes him want to be free and not be bound by any rules or limits. He personifies the bug as a fierce animal-like panther, that he wants to celebrate with by having a party. The song explores the ambiguity of the singer's identity as he wonders if he's the spring that finds bliss with the bug, or if he's the bug itself that cannot be controlled.


The song's lyrics have a poetic quality that displays the singer's love for the natural world. The metaphors and symbolism urge the listener to find a deeper meaning to the words. The song's message is to celebrate life, embrace freedom, and find peace in nature.
