Un Tema De Mierda

Intoxicados Intoxicados

A Raw Critique of Modern Society

Intoxicados' song "Un Tema De Mierda" is a raw and unfiltered critique of various aspects of modern society. The repeated use of the word "mierda" (which translates to "shit" in English) serves as a powerful metaphor for the corruption, hypocrisy, and problems that the artist perceives in different areas of life. The song opens with questions about the prevalence of "shit" in Germany, at home, at work, and even in one's personal hygiene, setting a tone of pervasive disillusionment.

The lyrics then expand to criticize larger institutions and historical events. The artist questions the integrity of governments, the Vatican, and the armed forces, suggesting that these entities are filled with "shit." This is a bold statement, reflecting a deep mistrust in authority and organized religion. The mention of historical figures like Cristóbal Colón (Christopher Columbus) and issues like petroleum and technology further broadens the scope of the critique, implicating both historical and contemporary sources of societal problems.

The song also delves into personal beliefs and everyday life, questioning the "shit" in one's beliefs, refrigerator, and even the air one breathes. This suggests that the artist sees these issues as not just external but also internal, affecting individuals on a personal level. The repeated questioning of when the artist entered this world or planet adds a layer of existential angst, as if pondering the very nature of existence in a world so filled with "shit." Overall, "Un Tema De Mierda" is a provocative and thought-provoking song that challenges listeners to reflect on the various forms of "shit" that permeate their lives and society at large.
