Mi Novia

Chabelos, a Peruvian rock band known for their irreverent and often humorous lyrics, delivers a satirical and exaggerated portrayal of love and gluttony in their song 'Mi Novia.' The song opens with a nostalgic recollection of the couple's first meeting in a bar, where the protagonist's girlfriend is enjoying a tamal with salsa criolla and beer. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, which humorously chronicles their shared love for food and the girlfriend's insatiable appetite.

The lyrics are filled with vivid and grotesque imagery, describing the girlfriend's ability to consume large quantities of food without any digestive issues. The protagonist's fascination with her eating habits is both comical and absurd, as he describes her as a 'gigantic pig' who can devour everything from tacu tacu to picarones. The song's chorus, which repeatedly urges the girlfriend to 'lick me, eat me, chew me, crush me, swallow me, pass me, digest me, and shit me,' is a hyperbolic expression of the protagonist's desire to be consumed by her love, both literally and metaphorically.

The song's humor lies in its over-the-top descriptions and the juxtaposition of romantic love with grotesque bodily functions. The protagonist's admiration for his girlfriend's gluttony extends to her physical imperfections, such as pimples and body odor, which he finds endearing. This satirical take on love challenges conventional romantic ideals and highlights the absurdity of human desires. By blending humor with shock value, Chabelos creates a memorable and provocative commentary on the nature of love and attraction.
