Dios Por Dios Es Cuatro

Love of Lesbian's song 'Dios Por Dios Es Cuatro' offers a satirical and critical view of contemporary society, particularly focusing on the disillusionment with traditional values and the rise of superficiality. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a world where hedonism and materialism have taken over, leaving behind the doctrines of faith and deeper meaning. The opening lines describe a group of young people, metaphorically referred to as 'ancianos' (elderly), who are already worn out by their pursuit of pleasure, highlighting the premature burnout caused by a hedonistic lifestyle.

The song continues to critique the lack of genuine belief and the prevalence of illusionists, or those who create false realities. The line 'Nos encantan las mentiras si están dichas de verdad' (We love lies if they are told truthfully) underscores the paradoxical nature of modern society, where people prefer comforting lies over harsh truths. This is further emphasized by the mention of Europe's need for courageous men, contrasting with the 'niñatos con flequillo en bandas de pop' (brats with bangs in pop bands), symbolizing the superficiality and lack of substance in contemporary culture.

The chorus, 'Sabes Dios por Dios es cuatro' (You know God for God is four), serves as a nonsensical statement, reflecting the absurdity and confusion in a world that has lost its moral compass. The song's imagery of people breaking shop windows if they don't see their reflection and the reference to 'cuentos chinos para niños del Japón' (Chinese tales for Japanese children) further illustrate the disconnection from reality and the embrace of meaningless distractions. Love of Lesbian uses these metaphors to call out the senselessness and insensitivity of modern life, urging listeners to recognize the folly of their ways and seek deeper, more meaningful connections.
