Vorfreude
Bosse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Dein Tinder-Date in deinem feuchten Traum
Eine Hummel im Sturzflug auf den Nektar
Der Sklave an der Klingel seiner Domina
Dein Cousin pennt mit der DJane aus'm Berghain
Du kommst endlich rein, an der Schlange vorbei
Der Vorhang fällt, die Band läuft ein
Du hörst nich' auf zu schreien
Zwei Boxerinnen springen über die Ringseile
Beide denken, „Geil, jetzt gibt's Keile“
So 'ne schöne Vorfreude
Vorfreude, yeah-yeah-yeah, Vorfreude
Ein Fieber, ein Sturm, ein Scharren auf Teer
So egal, wie's am Ende wird
Sie kickt schon sehr
Diese Vorfreude, oh-yeah
So 'ne schöne
Du sabberst, denn es riecht nach Überbackenem
Beim Essen freust du dich dann schon auf Nickerchen
Wie ein Kranich im Sinkflug auf Spanien
Ein Wildschwein beim Fall der Kastanien
Adrenalin und Endorphin besorgen's uns nice
Das Leben wär ein Loch ohne den Vorfreudebereich
Beim Auswärtsspiel eins-zu-eins, Bananenflanke rein
Ganz kurz vor Tor schon Vorfreude-Schreien
Und ziemlich oft ist so egal, wie's dann am Ende war
Die Vorfreude war da
So 'ne schöne Vorfreude
Vorfreude, yeah-yeah-yeah, Vorfreude
Ein Fieber, ein Sturm, ein Scharren auf Teer
So egal, wie's am Ende wird
Sie kickt schon sehr
Diese Vorfreude, oh-yeah
Mit dem „Lonely Planet“ in der Hand
Morgen geht's ab für dich und mich
An den fernsten Strand
Mit dem „Lonely Planet“ in der Hand
Sitzt du um halb vier auf dem Bett
Weil dich das Reisefieber packt
So 'ne schöne Vorfreude
Vorfreude, yeah-yeah-yeah, Vorfreude
Ein Fieber, ein Sturm, ein Scharren auf Teer
So egal, wie's am Ende wird
Sie kickt schon sehr
Diese Vorfreude, oh-yeah
So 'ne schöne
The lyrics of Bosse's song "Vorfreude" paint a vivid picture of anticipation and excitement in various scenarios. The first verse talks about a drug-sniffing dog ready to jump into the trunk, symbolizing the build-up of tension and expectation. The mention of a Tinder date in a dream hints at longing and desire. The imagery of a bumblebee diving towards nectar and a slave at his dominatrix's door showcases different forms of anticipation and submission. The scene of a cousin sleeping with a DJ from the Berghain club, while you bypass the line and enter a venue, creates a sense of triumph and exhilaration. The moment the curtain falls and the band starts playing, leading to a surge of emotional release and joy is beautifully captured.
In the following lines, the two boxers jumping into the ring with excitement reflects the adrenaline and readiness to engage in a fight. The repetition of "Vorfreude" emphasizes the feeling of anticipation and the thrill it brings. The mention of a fever, a storm, and the scraping of tires on asphalt suggests a restless and intense anticipation for what is to come. The sense of eagerness and impatience is palpable, regardless of the outcome. The reference to a crane descending towards Spain and a wild boar during the chestnut fall adds a touch of whimsy and nature's rhythm to the theme of anticipation.
The lyrics continue with references to the smell of baked dishes triggering drooling and the anticipation of a nap after a meal. Imagery of a crane landing in Spain and a wild boar among falling chestnuts evoke a sense of nature's beauty and the cycle of life. The mention of adrenaline and endorphins delivering pleasure underscores the power of anticipation in enhancing our experiences. The idea that life would be lacking without the realm of anticipation is profound. The lines about cheering for a goal in a soccer match right before it happens capture the thrill of anticipation and the joy it brings in that moment.
The concluding verses depict the excitement of planning a trip, holding the "Lonely Planet" guide and looking forward to an adventure. The reference to sitting on the bed at three-thirty in the morning due to travel fever conveys the restlessness and eagerness before embarking on a journey. The song beautifully captures the essence of anticipation as a powerful emotion that enhances our experiences, regardless of the outcome. It celebrates the beauty of looking forward to something with excitement and fervor, making each moment leading up to an event or experience valuable and full of anticipation.
