A Comer Que La Mesa Está Servida (feat. Edith Hermida & Mauricio D'Alessandro)
Panam
A Playful Feast of Gross-Out Humor
Panam's song, 'A Comer Que La Mesa Está Servida,' featuring Edith Hermida and Mauricio D'Alessandro, is a whimsical and humorous take on the concept of a meal. The lyrics describe a fantastical and grotesque banquet prepared by a character named Marguita, who aims to delight her guests with dishes that are intentionally revolting. The song lists a series of absurd and disgusting food items, such as 'puré de cucaracha' (cockroach puree), 'sopa de pipí' (pee soup), and the infamous 'huevo podrido' (rotten egg) with 'caca de gato' (cat poop) and 'pelusa del ombligo' (belly button lint). The exaggeratedly gross menu is meant to elicit laughter and a sense of playful disgust from the listeners.
The song employs a childlike sense of humor, reminiscent of the kind of gross-out jokes that are popular among kids. The repetition of the phrase 'huevo podrido' and the enthusiastic encouragement to 'coman coman coman todo' (eat, eat, eat everything) add to the comedic effect. The lyrics are filled with vivid and imaginative descriptions that paint a picture of a surreal and revolting feast, making it clear that the song is not meant to be taken seriously but rather enjoyed for its absurdity and fun.
Panam, known for her work in children's entertainment, uses this song to tap into the playful and mischievous side of her audience. The collaboration with Edith Hermida and Mauricio D'Alessandro adds an extra layer of fun, as their voices contribute to the lively and animated atmosphere of the song. 'A Comer Que La Mesa Está Servida' is a celebration of creativity and humor, inviting listeners to embrace their inner child and enjoy the silliness of the moment.
