Dietético Lyrics in English Soda Stereo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Dietético by Soda Stereo from Spanish to English.
Dietetic, dietetic
We are a dietetic band
We spin a dietetic wave
Love songs with saccharin
With less than one calorie
Dietetic, dietetic
We are a dietetic band
We improve a genetic message
Shake your body free, hey!
Consume that there is no danger (danger)
Dietetic, dietetic
We are a dietetic band
Searching for the aesthetic paradise
New skimmed minds
Gym silhouettes
Dietetic, dietetic
Living a dietetic nothing
Dreaming of a synthetic bed
I love you but you are so fat
I sense that you are not modern (modern)
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
The regime is over, it's over!
The regime is over, it's over!
The regime is over, it's over!
The regime is over, it's over!
The regime is over, it's over!

SONG MEANING

“Dietético” serves up a fizzy critique of 1980s consumer culture. Soda Stereo call themselves a “conjunto dietético” — a low-calorie band — and brag about “love songs with saccharin, with less than one calorie.” By wrapping their message in playful word-games, they poke fun at society’s obsession with light products, perfect bodies and instant gratification. Lines like “consume, there’s no danger” mimic advertising slogans, while “dreaming of a synthetic bed” hints at how artificial our desires can become.

Beneath the catchy chorus, the band slips in a double meaning: “El régimen se acabó” can mean “the diet is over,” but it also echoes Argentina’s recently fallen military régimen. In other words, Soda Stereo invite listeners to shake off both restrictive diets and oppressive systems, celebrating freedom of body, mind and music. The result is a clever pop anthem that sounds sweet on the surface yet leaves a sharp aftertaste once you digest the lyrics.
