Socorro

The song 'Socorro' by Marcos e Fernando tells a humorous and somewhat risqué story set in a rural environment. The narrator begins by describing a restless night where he is unable to sleep due to the heat and the buzzing of mosquitoes. Seeking relief, he steps outside to get some fresh air. This sets the stage for an unexpected and surreal encounter with his neighbor, Socorro, who appears to be sleepwalking and is completely naked.

As Socorro approaches the narrator, she begins to touch and grab him, leading to a series of increasingly intimate actions. The narrator is initially shocked and tries to caution her, but he soon finds himself enjoying the situation. The encounter continues until dawn, after which Socorro returns to her home as if nothing happened. The next day, the narrator visits Socorro to discuss the previous night's events. She explains that she is a sleepwalker and apologizes for her actions, which she claims to be unaware of. Despite this, the narrator finds himself eagerly anticipating these nightly encounters, suggesting a blend of humor and desire in his reaction.

The song uses a mix of colloquial language and vivid imagery to paint a picture of rural life and the unexpected events that can occur. The humor is evident in the narrator's initial shock and eventual enjoyment of the situation, as well as in Socorro's nonchalant explanation of her sleepwalking. The song also touches on themes of desire, curiosity, and the unpredictability of human behavior, all wrapped in a light-hearted and playful narrative.
