EL EXTRANJERO
(bunbury - copi)
Una barca en el puerto me espera,
no sé donde me ha de llevar,
no ando buscando grandeza,
solo esta tristeza deseo curar,
me marcho y no pienso en la vuelta,
tampoco me apena lo que dejo atrás,
sólo se que lo que me queda,
en un solo bolsillo, lo puedo llevar.
Me siento en casa en América,
en Antigua quisiera morir,
parecido me ocurre con Africa,
Asila, Esaurira y el Rif.
Pero haya donde voy ,
me llaman el extranjero,
donde quiera que estoy,
el extranjero me siento...
También extraño en mi tierra,
aunque la quiera de verdad,
pero mi corazón me aconseja,
los nacionalismos que miedo me dan.
Ni patria ni bandera,
ni raza ni condición,
ni límites ni fronteras,
extranjero soy.
Por que haya donde voy,
me llaman el extranjero,
donde quiera que estoy,
el extranjero me siento,
porque haya donde voy,
me llaman el extranjero.

What is the meaning behind El Extranjero lyrics?
When we analyze the meaning behind the words, Bunbury's track 'El Extranjero' unveils the sensation of being a stranger not only in the outskirts of the world but also in the very surroundings of one's land. The artist perceives the whole issue of identity, of whom one is and where one comes from, and the dread of nationalism with all its complexities. The words of the song portray a situation of being removed from one's surroundings and at the same time reflect the individual being an outsider, who feels such everywhere and nowhere at the same time. The whole song is permeated with the themes of social commentary, reflections, freedom, angst, and solitude. Yet, there is also a strong emphasis on the issues of alienation and belonging, the rejection of nationalism, and the search for peace and healing. In fact, the lyrics deal with travel, identity, and belonging without any offensive language, violence, or adult content. They are appropriate for all ages. ✔️
