Kauwgom Thee & Wierook
Bløf Lyrics

The lyrics to Bløf's song Kauwgom Thee & Wierook paint a picture of a sensual experience with the subject of the song, who is depicted as being an intoxicating combination of scents – kauwgom (bubblegum), thee (tea), and wierook (incense). The singer describes the mixture of these scents as being "bedwelmend goed gemengd" (intoxicatingly well mixed), and it seems deliberate on the part of the subject, as if it is just meant to be this way. The singer and the subject engage in the childhood activity of blowing bubbles and balloons, and the scent of their breath mixes with the scent of the kauwgom, thee, and wierook. The whisky and wine they are drinking also add to this sensory experience.

Despite the intensity of the moment, the singer mentions feeling driven away from the subject of the song. At home, he waits for her to call and tell him how good the day was, a day that she had never dared to experience before because it was too perfect for the rest of their time together. The singer appears to be struggling with the idea of something being too perfect, as if he is not used to experiencing something so intense and overwhelming. The line "En zij bedoelt er niets mee / Omdat het hoort zo" (And she doesn't mean anything by it / Because it's just how it is) suggests that the subject of the song is simply being herself and not trying to be anything she's not, and this is what makes her so irresistible.

Overall, the lyrics to Kauwgom Thee & Wierook are a beautiful and sensual exploration of a moment in time where everything seems to come together perfectly. The combination of scents, tastes, and experiences creates something that is almost too good to be true, and the singer struggles with the idea of it all being too perfect for the rest of their time together.
