Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I turned my back then you were gone
Standing all alone oh I felt like goin' home
Do you really want to know?
I only went along to be by your side
It seems you didn't want me you don't have to hide it
Now you feed me this line did you have a good time
Do you really want to know?
Then I'll tell you so
You know where you can go
Oh if you really want to know
Do you remember when we got home that night?
We got into bed turned out the light
I rolled to my side you were asking me why
Do you really want to know?
I know it wasn't me you had on your mind
But some little girl you wined and dined
I was takin' her place you were seein' her face
Do you really want to know?
Do you really want to know?
Well I'll tell you so
You know where you can go
Oh if you really want to know
Do you really want to know?
Yeah I'll tell you so
You know where you can go
Oh if you really want to know
Do you really want to know?
Yeah I'll tell you so
You know where you can go
Oh if you really want to know
Do you really want to know?
Well I'll tell you so
You know where you can go
Oh if you really want to know
The lyrics to Die Original Knaller-Band's song "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" tell a story of betrayal and heartbreak. The singer describes being taken to a party by their partner with the promise of dancing all night long, only to be abandoned and left standing alone, feeling like they wanted to go home. This initial sense of abandonment sets the tone for the rest of the song, as the singer questions whether their partner truly wants to hurt them by their actions.
Despite going along to the party to be by their partner's side, it becomes apparent that the partner did not want the singer there, leading to feelings of rejection and confusion. The singer questions if the partner had a good time and if they truly want to know the impact of their actions. This emotional turmoil is palpable in the lyrics, as the singer grapples with feelings of being unwanted and replaced.
As the song progresses, it becomes clear that the partner had someone else on their mind, referencing a "little girl" they were wining and dining instead of the singer. This realization further deepens the singer's sense of betrayal and hurt, as they come to terms with being a mere placeholder in their partner's affections. The repeated refrain of "Do you really want to know?" highlights the singer's desperation for clarity and honesty from their partner.
Ultimately, the song explores themes of deception, unrequited love, and the pain of realizing that one's feelings are not reciprocated. The repeated questioning of whether the partner truly wants to know the impact of their actions underscores the singer's desire for honesty and closure. The somber tone of the lyrics, combined with the melancholic melody of the song, creates a poignant reflection on the complexities of relationships and the wounds inflicted by betrayal.
