Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Como Un Millón De Dólares by Bunbury from Spanish to English.

Intro

In this country that invites you to dream

That they'll gift you love, fame and booze

Who's gonna deny you talent and sensitivity?

Who's gonna reject you?

Verse 1

Two months in a motel every night at the Echoplex

Here we've come to lose our innocence

All that we have to do

Is get high till dawn, wake up on the beach

Verse 1

And chase the heartbeat of a flash, life on Instagram

We were born to shine

To be born through the fire

Glamour and electricity

Verse 1

And a Mercedes Benz at the bar's door

Chorus 1

The world at your feet, that's how it should be

And look like a million dollars

A master plan written on cellophane

Without breathing till the final stretch

Verse 2

It's hot and you dress better

And you can show part of your investment

You can't stop, you can't go back

A family drama and anxiety attacks

They say that you shouldn't tell your secrets to anyone else

But there are footprints impossible to erase

Chorus 2

The world at your feet, that's how it should be

And look like a million dollars

A master plan written on cellophane

Without breathing till the final stretch

Chorus 3

The world at your feet, that's how it should be

And look like a million dollars

A master plan written on cellophane

Without breathing till the final stretch

SONG MEANING

Welcome to Bunbury’s neon-lit fairground of dreams. In Como Un Millón De Dólares, the Australian artist invites us to cruise through a land that promises “amor, fama y alcohol” at every corner. The lyrics sparkle with images of beach-side sunrises after all-night parties, Mercedes-Benz cars parked outside clubs, and Instagram flashes that chase you like paparazzi. It all sounds irresistible, yet the song’s glossy surface hides a sly wink: innocence gets lost in motel rooms, talent is measured by likes, and the only rule is to keep the party going until the next dawn.

Under the glitter, though, lies a cautionary tale. Bunbury exposes the high price of living like a “million dollars” – anxiety attacks, family drama, and secrets that refuse to stay buried. The supposed master plan for stardom is nothing more than a fragile sheet of cellophane, beautiful but easy to tear. By the final chorus, the listener is left questioning whether the world at your feet is worth the breathless sprint to the finish line. The song ultimately urges us to look beyond glamour and ask what remains when the filters fade and the flash stops clicking.
