Pantalones Rotos
Spongebob Squarepants Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y pense que todos me querian por montones
Pero lo arruine, fui un idiota sin razones
Ahora ella no querra salir conmigo nunca más
Solo por que rompi, mis pantalones
Cuando Larry el forzudo apareció
Bob un payaso se tranformó
Con el que rompió el calzón
Ya se que mi actitud fue la de un patán
Fue tan grande mi dolor
Andar sin compañia como un vil trual
Era mas grave aun que la arena en el pan,
Hay una leccion que no podre olvidar
Y se que ustedes lo aprovecharan
Ser sincero y no payasear
Para no ser como el que rompió el calzón.
The SpongeBob SquarePants song, "Pantalones Rotos," or "Ripped Pants" in English, is a humorous and reflective tune about the consequences of trying to be funny and impress others. The lyrics are sung from the perspective of SpongeBob, who in a moment of childishness, decides to deliberately rip his pants on the beach, much to the amusement of other beachgoers. SpongeBob revels in the attention and popularity he receives as a result of his pranks, but it is short-lived when people eventually tire of his antics and leave him alone. SpongeBob reflects on his poor decisions and learns that it is better to be honest and genuine than to try and be something you are not.
The song also features other characters from the show, including Larry the muscleman and Bob the clown, who show their disdain for SpongeBob's behavior when they refuse to dance with him. Through SpongeBob's experience, the song teaches us the value of being true to ourselves and not seeking validation from others through insincere actions. The lyrics also emphasize the importance of learning from our mistakes and taking responsibility for our actions.
