La Comadreja

Once Tiros' song 'La Comadreja' is a vivid portrayal of societal struggles and the resilience of the human spirit. The lyrics paint a picture of a world where people are trapped in a web of inequality and hardship, much like flies caught in a spider's web. The opening lines, 'Ya hice hoy la pasta de mañana hermano / Y ahora rajen porque siguen tejiendo su telaraña,' suggest a sense of preparation and survival amidst ongoing challenges. The metaphor of the spider's web represents the complex and often inescapable nature of societal structures that keep individuals ensnared.

The song delves deeper into the theme of inequality with lines like 'No hay que comer, ni hay que beber / De la miga de lo que dejan los que vuelan por arriba.' Here, the lyrics highlight the disparity between the privileged and the underprivileged, emphasizing how the latter are left to survive on the crumbs of those who soar above them. This stark contrast underscores the social and economic divides that persist in society, questioning the very notion of equality and justice.

Despite the grim realities depicted, 'La Comadreja' carries a message of defiance and hope. The chorus, 'Pero igual voy a mover los pies / Aunque sea por esta noche nomas,' signifies a refusal to be defeated by circumstances. Dancing, even if just for one night, becomes a powerful act of resistance and a way to reclaim joy and agency. The repeated call to 'gritarte otra vez' serves as a rallying cry for action and change, urging listeners to confront and challenge the status quo. Through its compelling lyrics and energetic rhythm, 'La Comadreja' encapsulates the spirit of resilience and the enduring fight for a better future.
