The Lonesome Escape in 'Fumate Una Chala'

The song 'Fumate Una Chala' by Los Pericos, an Argentine reggae band, seems to revolve around themes of escape and solitude. The lyrics suggest a person who is tired and seeking release, possibly from a relationship or a situation that is no longer fulfilling. The repeated line 'Because she loves my eyes, she is going away' could imply that despite the affection, there is a separation occurring, which might be causing the narrator distress.

The request 'Please don't call me home' indicates a desire to break free from expectations or obligations. The narrator wants to be left alone, emphasizing the need for personal space and time to process the emotions associated with the departure of a loved one. The phrase 'So lonely night, the only way' further reinforces the theme of solitude as a chosen path, perhaps as a means to cope with the pain of separation.

The chorus 'Give me please the chala, let me go away' introduces the title of the song, where 'chala' could be a slang term for marijuana. In this context, it seems the narrator is asking for a moment of respite through the use of marijuana, to ease the mind and facilitate the process of letting go. The repetition of this request highlights the urgency and the depth of the narrator's desire to escape the current state of mind and find solace in solitude.
