Enfermera Vudú

Expulsados' song 'Enfermera Vudú' delves into the themes of longing, healing, and escape through the lens of a patient in a hospital. The protagonist is entranced by a nurse, referred to as 'Enfermera Vudú,' who seems to possess mystical healing powers. The repeated line, 'solo tu medicina va a curarme' (only your medicine will heal me), underscores the patient's belief that this nurse holds the key to their recovery, both physically and emotionally.

The song paints a vivid picture of the hospital setting, with the protagonist yearning for the nurse's presence when 'nadie este en el pabellón' (no one is in the ward). This desire for privacy and intimacy suggests a deeper connection or a need for solace that goes beyond conventional medical treatment. The mention of 'camisas de fuerza' (straitjackets) hints at a mental or emotional struggle, further emphasizing the protagonist's desperation to escape their current state.

Moreover, the lyrics 'quiero ser parte de tus rituales y salir del hospital' (I want to be part of your rituals and leave the hospital) introduce a mystical or supernatural element. The nurse's 'rituales' (rituals) could symbolize unconventional methods of healing or a metaphor for breaking free from the constraints of the hospital and the protagonist's condition. The song's narrative is both haunting and hopeful, blending themes of mysticism, mental health, and the human desire for connection and freedom.
