Todo Es Tan Fantástico Como El Cartel De Una Farmacia turns an utterly ordinary day into a witty slice-of-life narrative. From wholesome toast and coffee at dawn to the late-night question “¿esto es la felicidad?”, the lyrics catalog every small event: a propane-run bus ride, a surprise encounter with an old classmate, staring at the luminous pharmacy clock during a slow work shift, enduring dull chatter about football, and escaping an awkward dinner by “going to the bathroom” and never coming back. Each scene is painted with dry humor, gentle irony, and a pinch of existential doubt, suggesting that modern life often feels as dazzling as a neon apothecary sign… yet just as hollow.
Behind the playful storytelling lies a deeper reflection on routine, social obligations, and quiet fatigue. The narrator drifts through lessons, errands, and chance observations—a legless street performer, swirling starlings, supermarket “nothings”—while wrestling with the sense that something more meaningful should exist. By the time the lights go out and the neighbor’s TV keeps buzzing, we feel both the charm and the weariness of everyday survival. The song invites listeners to smile at the absurdity of the mundane and to wonder whether happiness is hidden in these fleeting, trivial moments or waiting somewhere beyond the glowing green cross of the pharmacy.
