Se Alboroto La Perrada

Los Tres Reyes' song "Se Alboroto La Perrada" paints a vivid picture of the chaotic and dangerous life in the streets of California, particularly for those involved in illicit activities. The lyrics describe a scenario where the protagonists had to flee, not out of fear of imprisonment, but because their presence is more valuable outside, where they can continue their operations. This sets the tone for a narrative that revolves around survival, cunning, and the constant threat of law enforcement and rival groups.

The song highlights the desolation of the streets from San Diego to San Francisco, where once-bustling areas are now deserted, save for the presence of 'dogs and rats,' a metaphor for the dangerous and untrustworthy individuals that now dominate these zones. The mention of various Californian cities and the involvement of people from Sinaloa and Guanajuato underscores the widespread nature of these activities and the risks taken by those involved. The reference to 'cristaleros' and their 'bonitas troconas' (beautiful trucks) suggests a past where these individuals flaunted their wealth and power, a stark contrast to the current state of caution and fear.

The song also touches on the changes in social gatherings, particularly in dance halls, where the presence of mafiosos has dwindled due to the increased danger. The lyrics advise caution, using the metaphor of a curious cat that died, to emphasize the peril of being too inquisitive or careless. The refrain about dogs barking but not biting, and attacking only in packs, serves as a warning about the deceptive nature of threats and the importance of intelligence and strategy in navigating this treacherous environment. The song concludes with a shoutout to various Mexican states, celebrating their resilience and urging the use of intelligence to avoid falling into traps set by adversaries.
