Chico Ortuzar

Los Mox!, a Chilean punk rock band known for their humorous and often irreverent lyrics, bring us the song 'Chico Ortuzar.' At first glance, the song appears to be about a peculiar friendship with a character named Chico Ortuzar. However, a deeper look reveals a series of metaphors and double entendres that make the song both amusing and thought-provoking.

The lyrics describe Chico Ortuzar as a new friend who is immediately likable, despite not being very attractive on the outside. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for something or someone that may not seem appealing at first but has a lot of value once you get to know them. The repeated references to entering through the 'back door' and the warmth and pressure inside suggest a more intimate and possibly risqué relationship, adding layers of humor and innuendo.

The chorus emphasizes the pressure and the need to leave, only to return again, which could symbolize the cyclical nature of certain relationships or experiences. The song's playful tone and clever wordplay make it a standout piece in Los Mox!'s repertoire, showcasing their ability to blend humor with deeper, more complex themes. The character of Chico Ortuzar, with his 'bronzed tone' and 'irritable' yet 'warm' interior, becomes a symbol of those quirky, imperfect friendships or experiences that we cherish despite their flaws.
