Espectáculo
Terbutalina Lyrics

These lyrics from Terbutalina's song "Espectáculo" convey a sense of judgment and criticism towards a superficial and materialistic society. The opening line, "Mente de plástico ten un elástico" (Plastic mind has an elastic), suggests that people in this society have flexible and easily manipulated minds, lacking depth and authenticity. The following line, "De silicona é a súa moza que non ten a ESO" (His girlfriend is made of silicone and lacks high school education), further emphasizes the emphasis on superficiality, as the girlfriend is described as someone who prioritizes physical aesthetics over intellectual pursuits.

The lyrics continue to highlight the societal trend of valuing appearance and sexual prowess over genuine connection and personal growth. The line "Ten máster en sexo e todo eso" (She has a sex master's degree and all that) suggests that the girlfriend's expertise lies solely in sexual matters, reinforcing the idea that superficiality reigns supreme in this society.

The chorus, "é un resumen de que vai caer o ceo e as estrelas tamén e vós ides estar no sofá para ver o espectáculo" (it's a summary that the sky and the stars will fall and you will be sitting on the couch to watch the show), implies that this societal downfall is inevitable and that people will passively observe the spectacle without taking necessary action. The repetition of the word "espectáculo" (spectacle) further emphasizes the irony of the situation, as people are entertained by their own demise.

Overall, the lyrics in "Espectáculo" criticize a society obsessed with superficiality, materialism, and sexual gratification, highlighting the consequences of these values and the passive role individuals play in their own downfall.
