This song is about the serial killer and cannibal Dorángel Vargas, who was known as “El comegente” (people eater) and the “Hannibal Lecter of the Andes”.
The song is bilingual, with Tony Campos screaming the spanish parts and Max Cavalera growling the portuguese parts.
[Verse 1]
No soy un pinche loco
Solo quiero comer gente
Con tubo para lanza
Un chingazo, caes en mi panza
[Chorus]
El comegente
Hannibal Lecter de los Andes
El comegente
Hannibal Lecter de los Andes
El comegente
Hannibal, animal, canibal
El comegente
Hannibal, animal, canibal
El comegente
[Verse 2]
Era um mendigo
Vivendo do lixo
Se tornou canibal
Sua alma e do mal
[Chorus]
El comegente
Hannibal Lecter de los Andes
El comegente
Hannibal Lecter de los Andes
El comegente
Hannibal, animal, canibal
El comegente
Hannibal, animal, canibal
El comegente
[Bridge]
Latino sujo com sangue maldito
Vai se acabar todo fudido
Vagabundo e salvagem
O inferno espera você
Carne rica y deliciosa
Comer a gente es lo normal
Pendejos, nunca me dejen ir
Si salgo, te voy a comer a ti
