Comeme Perro

Tito Fernandez's song 'Comeme Perro' is a raw and intense portrayal of a tumultuous relationship marked by desperation, passion, and eventual betrayal. The lyrics are filled with vivid imagery and metaphors that paint a picture of a man caught in the throes of a powerful and overwhelming love affair. The repeated phrase '¡comeme perro!' (which translates to 'eat me, dog!') is a provocative and somewhat degrading command that underscores the intensity and desperation of the relationship. The use of animalistic language and metaphors, such as comparing the woman to a 'yegua percherona' (a draft mare), adds to the raw and primal nature of the emotions being expressed.

The song's narrative follows the protagonist as he is physically and emotionally overwhelmed by his lover. Her physicality and passion are described in almost overpowering terms, with her 'ochenta kilos' (eighty kilos) and 'gruesos labios ardientes' (thick, burning lips) dominating him. Despite the intensity of their physical connection, there is a sense of emotional turmoil and vulnerability. The protagonist feels 're infeliz' (very unhappy) and 'igual, que perro apaliaó' (like a beaten dog), highlighting the emotional cost of the relationship.

As the song progresses, the protagonist's feelings of desperation and helplessness turn to betrayal and bitterness. He imagines another man suffering the same fate, being overwhelmed and consumed by the same woman. The realization that he is not unique in his suffering, and that the woman will move on to another lover, adds a layer of cynicism and resignation to the song. The final lines express a mix of anger and acceptance, as the protagonist acknowledges the betrayal but also the lingering impact of the relationship. The raw emotion and vivid imagery in 'Comeme Perro' make it a powerful exploration of the darker side of love and desire.
