Ni sitter där I Ventrilo och spelar DotA
Vi sitter här I venten och spelar lite DotA
I hear you man
Vi sitter här I venten och spelar lite DotA
I feel you man
Å pushar på å smeker, med motståndet vi leker
Vi sitter här I venten och spelar lite DotA
Å springer runt å creepar, och motståndet vi sleepar
Vi sitter här I venten och spelar lite DotA
Å pushar på å smeker, med motståndet vi leker
Vi sitter här I venten och spelar lite DotA
Å springer runt å creepar, och motståndet vi sleepar
Vi sitter här I venten och spelar lite DotA

The lyrics to Basshunter's song "DotA" describe a group of gamers who spend their days playing the popular online multiplayer game Defense of the Ancients (DotA). The chorus repeats the line "We sit here in the vent and play a little DotA", emphasizing the group's dedication to the game. The verses describe actions within the game, such as pushing, creeping, and sleeping the enemy team. The use of gaming jargon and references will likely resonate with other DotA players, and the upbeat tempo and catchy melody make the song fun to dance and sing along to.
The lyrics of "DotA" reflect a cultural phenomenon in the early 2000s, where multiplayer online games like DotA gained immense popularity among young people around the world. The song's Swedish origins reflect the country's reputation for producing notable gamers and game designers. Basshunter himself is a gamer who began as a modder for the game Counter-Strike, demonstrating his connection to the gaming community.
