Zapato 3 pasó de ser una banda solo conocida en pequeños círculos de interés en la movida rock venezolana a uno de los principales íconos del rock de Venezuela de la década de 1990. Reconocida su influencia de grupos como Depeche Mode, U2, The Cure, Rolling Stones y bandas punk como Dead Kennedys, su presencia en el escenario les ganó un importante grupo de fanáticos en todo el país. Fue la primera banda venezolana en alcanzar los primeros lugares en las carteleras de radio del país con temas estrictamente de rock y sin sonido de influencia latina o pop. Paradójicamente su influencia es mejor entendida en la actualidad y temas como "Pantaletas Negras", "Amo las estrellas", "Uñas asesinas" y "Vampiro" se mantienen vigentes en las estaciones de radio. Zapato 3 fue junto con Sentimiento Muerto, las primeras bandas con seguidores constantes (groupies) en Venezuela.

Zapato 3 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Quiero vivir en paz
No trates de consolarme
Sabiendo qué puedes darme
No creo que sea muy tarde
Dejame hablar
Dejate amar
No tengo mas paciencia
voy a cerrar la puerta
sé que quieres entregarte
ser feliz en un instante
Dejame hablar
Dejate amar
No te burles mas de mí
Dejame hablar
Dejate amar
No te burles mas de mí
Dejame hablar
Vamos a empezar el juego
Nos tiramos en el suelo
Quieres verme al desnudarte
Y me acabas con desplante
Dejame Hablar
Dejate amar
No te burles mas de mí
Dejame Hablar
Dejate amar
No te burles mas de mí
Dejame Hablar
No te burles mas de mí
Dejame hablar
No te burles mas de mí, no
The lyrics of Zapato 3's song "Dejame hablar" convey a message about the importance of allowing oneself to speak up and express their feelings, especially in the context of a relationship. The singer is asking their partner not to confuse and confound them anymore and to let them live in peace. They request their partner not to try and console them with empty promises and false hope, knowing full well what they truly desire.
The singer is aware that time might be running out, and they cannot wait any longer. They want their partner to listen to them and let them speak, to understand their needs and desires, and not to belittle or ridicule them any further.
The song suggests that relationships require honest communication, and one should not make fun of or negate the emotions and needs of their partner. The use of euphemisms like "juego" or "desnudarte" provides an element of seduction but also highlights the importance of mutual consent and respect.
In essence, "Dejame hablar" is a plea for communication and transparency in relationships, as withholding or suppressing one's emotions can lead to misunderstandings, and ultimately, heartbreak.
