Colgao

Malos Vicios' song 'Colgao' tells a heartfelt story of transformation and love through the eyes of a once-wandering soul. The protagonist likens himself to a stray cat, living a life of uncertainty and hardship until he meets someone who changes everything. This metaphor of a 'callejero' or street cat symbolizes a life of independence and survival, but also loneliness and instability. The shift from the streets to the comfort of a garden represents the newfound peace and happiness brought by this relationship.

The lyrics vividly describe the physical and emotional sensations of falling in love. Phrases like 'Un bicho en el ombligo' (a bug in the belly) and 'mi corazon acelerado ruge como animal' (my accelerated heart roars like an animal) capture the intense, almost primal feelings of excitement and anticipation. The imagery of the storm clearing and the sky becoming 'despejao' (clear) further emphasizes the sense of relief and clarity that love brings to the protagonist's life.

The song also touches on themes of fate and serendipity. The line 'Se cruzo la buena suerte con la casualidad' (good luck crossed paths with chance) suggests that the meeting was both fortunate and unexpected. This blend of luck and destiny adds a layer of magic to the narrative, making the love story feel both unique and universal. The protagonist's transformation from a solitary figure to someone deeply 'colgao' (smitten) underscores the profound impact that love can have on a person's life, turning their world upside down in the best possible way.
