Bevent passat
Umpah-pah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Són les onze del matí,
no em preguntis res, quiet
és un diumenge qualsevol,
m'aixeco i vaig de tort
i a la boca i tinc mal gust,
tot hi veig borrós.
El cap em va molt a poc a poc
mentre no puc parar
el meu carai de cor...
M'hauré, m'hauré...
de canviar el cervell.
Tot just tocat el tut
començo a rondinar
d'aquell despertador,
que sempre em sol posar nerviós.
I cada nou raig brillant em costa més dibuixar
l'esbós senzill d'un somrís abans
que fàcilment sortia
d'aquella engruna de niu dolç.
Em fa molt mal pensar que el futur és gris
que es podrirà fent un badall.
Tu sempre dius
que està ben bé a punt d'arribar.
A bona hora vindràs...
que ni ens caldrà tornar-nos a emborratxar
el temps corre,
se'ns està socarrimant
vull aiguardent,
jo ja no puc esperar.
Tot just tocat el tut
començo a rondinar
d'aquell despertador,
que sempre em sol posar nerviós.
I cada nou raig brillant em costa més dibuixar
l'esbós senzill d'un somrís abans
que fàcilment sortia
d'aquella engruna de niu dolç.
Em fa molt mal pensar que el futur és gris
que es podrirà fent un badall.
Tu sempre dius
que està ben bé a punt d'arribar.
A bona hora vindràs...
que ni ens caldrà tornar-nos a emborratxar
el temps corre,
se'ns està socarrimant




vull aiguardent,
jo ja no puc esperar.

Overall Meaning

The song "Bevent passat" by Umpah-pah is about the feeling of disorientation and uncertainty that can come with a hangover. The lyrics describe the singer waking up on a Sunday morning feeling ill and dizzy, with a bad taste in their mouth and a blurry vision. They struggle to gather their thoughts and focus on the day ahead as their mind and body feel sluggish and slow. The sound of the alarm clock adds to their anxiety, and they find it hard to draw even the simplest smile.


Despite their discomfort and pessimism about the future, the singer's friend tries to reassure them that things will be okay and that good times are on the horizon, but the singer is skeptical. They long for a drink to numb the feeling of being overwhelmed by life and the passing of time.


Overall, the song has a melancholic tone but also an underlying sense of hope, suggesting that even when life feels tough, there is always a chance for things to get better.
