Vete
The Flying Rebollos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ponte a cubierto o te puedes perder,
soy el rey Midas de la contrariedad
y lo que toco lo hago danzar.
No tengo demasiada habilidad
para llevar una existencia normal,
tú tienes pinta de querer triunfar
y yo un consejo que te puede ayudar:
vete, vete, sigue buscando lo mejor para ti,
vete, vete, escápate ya de mí,
vete, vete y sigue buscando lo mejor para ti.
No creo que deba sentirme culpable
si un ángel negro se posó en mi Moisés,
su maldición me sigue a todas partes,
no hay cosa mala que yo pueda hacer bien.
Sueño con el país de los desastres,
donde un muchacho no esté obligado a ser
correcto, guapo, estudioso adorable.
Vete, vete, escápate ya de mí,
vete, vete, sigue buscando lo mejor para ti,
vete, vete, escápate ya de mí,
vete, vete y sigue buscando lo mejor para ti.
Vete, vete, escápate ya de mí,
vete, vete, sigue buscando lo mejor para ti,
vete, vete, escápate ya de mí,
vete, vete y sigue buscando lo mejor para ti.
Vete, vete, escápate ya de mí,
vete, vete, sigue buscando lo mejor para ti,
vete, vete, escápate ya de mí,
vete, vete y sigue buscando,
vete, vete y sigue buscando,
vete, vete y sigue buscando
lo mejor para ti.
The Flying Rebollos's song "Vete" is a powerful song about someone who feels like they are cursed and that their bad luck follows them wherever they go. The song's lyrics speak about how the singer wishes they could live a normal life but feels like they are incapable of doing so, and as a result, they have a warning to those who come into contact with them to stay away if they don't want to experience the same troubles. The lyrics suggest that the singer is aware of their destructive nature and cannot change it, and therefore, anyone who wants to succeed should make sure to avoid them.
The song's chorus repeats the phrase "vete" (which means "go away"), suggesting that the singer is not only warning the listener but also asking them to leave. The song's lyrics also talk about the singer's dreams of living in a world where people are not bound by social norms and expectations, a place where one can be free to be themselves without fear of judgment.
Overall, the song is a commentary on the difficult lives that some people lead and the negative influence that they may have on others. The singer recognizes their own limitations and warns others to stay away, while also expressing a desire to be free from the burdens that they carry.
