Haciendo cosas raras

Divididos Divididos

Embracing Madness in a Conformist World

Divididos' song "Haciendo cosas raras" delves into the theme of nonconformity and the absurdity of societal norms. The lyrics repeatedly emphasize the act of doing 'strange things' for 'normal people,' suggesting a deliberate departure from conventional behavior. This rebellion against the mundane is portrayed as a form of liberation, where the characters in the song engage in activities without overthinking or adhering to societal expectations.

The phrase 'Ya no importa lo que importa' (What matters no longer matters) is a powerful statement about the disillusionment with societal values. The song suggests that the madness has even affected the older generation ('la locura ya pegó en las madres'), indicating a widespread sense of discontent and a shift in what is considered important. This line underscores a collective awakening to the superficiality of societal norms and the embrace of a more authentic, albeit chaotic, way of living.

The imagery of 'reventando el zoológico' (blowing up the zoo) and 'bailando como locos' (dancing like crazy) further illustrates the theme of breaking free from constraints. The zoo metaphor could symbolize the artificial boundaries and restrictions imposed by society, while dancing wildly represents a form of joyous, unrestrained expression. The song also touches on themes of solidarity and survival, as seen in the line 'La patota ya se abraza para no morir de frío' (The gang hugs to avoid freezing), suggesting that in their madness, people find warmth and connection.

Overall, "Haciendo cosas raras" is a celebration of nonconformity and a critique of societal norms, encouraging listeners to embrace their individuality and find freedom in the chaos.
