In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Cómo te extraño, mi amor por qué será,
me falta todo en la vida si no estás.
cómo te extraño mi amor, qué puedo hacer,
te extraño tanto que voy a enloquecer
A veces pienso que tú no nunca vendrás,
pero te quiero y te tengo que esperar,
es el destino, me lleva hasta el final,
donde algún día mi amor te encontrará,
Ay amor, divino,
pronto tienes que volver.
Cómo te extraño, me falta todo en la vida si no estás.
cómo te extraño mi amor, qué puedo hacer,
te extraño tanto que voy a enloquecer
A veces pienso que tú no nunca vendrás,
pero te quiero y te tengo que esperar,
es el destino, me lleva hasta el final,
donde algún día mi amor te encontrará,
Ay amor, divino,
pronto tienes que volver.
El dolor;
es fuerte y lo soporto;
porque vivo pensando en tu amor.
Quiero verte, tenerte y besarte,
y entregarte todo mi corazón.
Ay amor, divino,
pronto tienes que volver.
Ay amor, divino,
pronto tienes que volver.
me falta todo en la vida si no estás.
cómo te extraño mi amor, qué puedo hacer,
te extraño tanto que voy a enloquecer
A veces pienso que tú no nunca vendrás,
pero te quiero y te tengo que esperar,
es el destino, me lleva hasta el final,
donde algún día mi amor te encontrará,
Ay amor, divino,
pronto tienes que volver.
Cómo te extraño, me falta todo en la vida si no estás.
cómo te extraño mi amor, qué puedo hacer,
te extraño tanto que voy a enloquecer
A veces pienso que tú no nunca vendrás,
pero te quiero y te tengo que esperar,
es el destino, me lleva hasta el final,
donde algún día mi amor te encontrará,
Ay amor, divino,
pronto tienes que volver.
El dolor;
es fuerte y lo soporto;
porque vivo pensando en tu amor.
Quiero verte, tenerte y besarte,
y entregarte todo mi corazón.
Ay amor, divino,
pronto tienes que volver.
Ay amor, divino,
pronto tienes que volver.

"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.

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.
Mas alla de la cancion la interpretacion de Cafe Tacuba es espectacular, la linea "te extraño tanto que voy a enloquecer" es la mejor.
This song is interpreting how a guy feels when the person that he loves is not there with him. He is basically saying that he longs for her when she is not with him to the point of going crazy... this is basically what the guy above me said or quoted... lol... one of my favorite lines from the song is the line which says that sometimes he thinks that she won't come but he likes her and has to wait...
well this is my favorite song by them, even if its a cover. along with Las Flores. Me and my mom sing this song back and fort to each other its cute. love it love it.
Fucking. Amazing. Song.
^Holy shit, you're listening to Café Tacuba now? =D
