La 2da De La Chica Pura

Damas Gratis, a prominent band in the cumbia villera genre, is known for their raw and unfiltered lyrics that often reflect the realities of life in the lower socio-economic neighborhoods of Argentina. 'La 2da De La Chica Pura' is no exception, offering a candid and somewhat controversial portrayal of a woman's interactions and societal perceptions. The song's lyrics are direct and unapologetic, addressing themes of desire, deception, and societal judgments with a bluntness that is characteristic of the genre.

The song opens with the protagonist asking the woman to express her love, even if it means lying. This request for deceit highlights a complex dynamic where the protagonist is aware of the superficiality but still craves the affirmation. The lyrics then shift to a critique of the woman's attempts to appear difficult or coy, juxtaposed with the blunt statement about her physical enhancements. This commentary on physical appearance and the societal pressures surrounding it is a recurring theme in many songs of this genre, reflecting the often harsh realities faced by women.

As the song progresses, the repeated assertion that the woman is 're tuta' (a derogatory term) underscores the judgment she faces. The final lines reveal a deeper layer of societal critique, suggesting that despite her physical attributes, she is valued for her actions rather than her appearance. This duality of being judged for both appearance and behavior is a poignant reflection of the societal pressures and the often contradictory expectations placed on women. Through its raw and unfiltered lyrics, 'La 2da De La Chica Pura' offers a stark commentary on societal norms, gender dynamics, and the complexities of human relationships.
