En el barrio La Cachimba se ha formado la corredera
En el barrio La Cachimba se ha formado la corredera
Allá fueron los bomberos con sus campanas, sus sirenas
Allí fueron los bomberos con sus campanas, sus sirenas
¡Ay, mamá! ¿Qué pasó? ¡Ay, mamá! ¿Qué pasó?

En el barrio La Cachimba se ha formado la corredera
En el barrio La Cachimba se ha formado la corredera
Allá fueron los bomberos con sus campanas, sus sirenas
Allí fueron los bomberos con sus campanas, sus sirenas
¡Ay, mamá! ¿Qué pasó? ¡Ay, mamá! ¿Qué pasó?

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

¡Que llamen a Ibrahim Ferrer, que busquen a los bomberos!
Que yo creo que Tula lo que quiere es que le apaguen el fuego

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

Ay, por ahí viene Eliades, en tremenda corredera
Viene a observar el cuarto de Tula que ha cogido candela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

Carlos y Marcos están mirando este fuego
Si ahora no se apaga, se apaga luego, candela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

Puntillita, ve y busca a Marco', pa' que busque al Sierra Maestra
Que vengan para acá rapido que la Tula, mira cogió candela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

Hey, Marcos, coge pronto el cubito
Y no te quedes allá fuera

Llénalo de agua y ven a apagar el cuarto de Tula
Que ha cogido candela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

Tula está encendida, ¡llama a los bomberos!
Tú eres candela, ¡afina los cueros!

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

Candela, muchacho
Se volvió loco, Barbarito
¡Hay que ingresarlo!

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

El cuarto de Tula, le cogió candela
Se quedó dormida y no apagó la vela

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
