Nun Me Toques Les Campanes

Los Berrones, a band known for their humorous and often satirical take on everyday life, bring us a relatable and amusing narrative in their song "Nun Me Toques Les Campanes." The song captures the frustration of a person who is constantly disturbed by the sound of church bells on Sunday mornings. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the protagonist's struggle to enjoy a peaceful morning, only to be interrupted by the relentless ringing of the bells.

The song opens with the protagonist questioning why they always seem to arrive at the same time as the church bells, but while the bells ring serenely, the protagonist is barely able to stand. This contrast sets the tone for the rest of the song, highlighting the annoyance and humor in the situation. The repeated plea, "Nun me toques les campanes," which translates to "Don't ring the bells," emphasizes the protagonist's desperation for some quiet.

The lyrics also delve into the physical setting, describing how the protagonist's bedroom faces the church tower, making the sound of the bells unavoidable. The mention of the priest singing sermons and talking about faith and virtue adds a layer of irony, as the protagonist is more concerned with getting some rest and enjoying a leisurely Sunday, perhaps with a drink, rather than attending church. This humorous take on a common annoyance makes the song both relatable and entertaining, showcasing Los Berrones' talent for blending humor with everyday experiences.
