A Satirical Take on Power and Corruption

La Polla Records' song "10 Perritos" is a biting satire on the nature of power and the individuals who occupy positions of authority. The band, known for its punk rock style and politically charged lyrics, uses the metaphor of 'perritos' or little dogs to represent those in power. The song opens with the narrator claiming to have ten little dogs in positions of power, highlighting their supposed politeness and lack of ability to cause trouble. This initial description sets the stage for a critique of the inefficacy and superficiality often found in political leaders.

The lyrics then introduce a specific character, the 'primer ministro' or prime minister, who is depicted with the manners of a baby. This infantilization of a high-ranking official serves to underscore the incompetence and naivety that the band perceives in political figures. The prime minister's inability to breathe, described as 'las picho de viejecito,' further emphasizes his frailty and ineffectiveness. This imagery paints a picture of leaders who are not only incapable but also out of touch with the realities and struggles of the people they are supposed to serve.

By repeating the refrain about having ten little dogs in power, La Polla Records drives home the point that these issues are not isolated to a single individual but are systemic. The song's simplicity and repetition make its message clear and accessible, while the use of humor and metaphor adds a layer of depth to the critique. Through "10 Perritos," the band invites listeners to question the competence and integrity of those in power, urging a more critical and discerning view of political leadership.
