Caruso
Fischer-Z Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Once upon a time there
Was a girl who
Had a room with an
Inflatable chair
She often smiled
Do you remember...
Pretending life was
Unpredictable
The Doctor is the judge
The scalpel and the drugs oh
You may sing like Caruso
You may make people cry
You may sing like Caruso
You're not mine
Another morning
Another day
Send me flowers
From your sweet bouquet
Stick out your tongue
(Say agh!)
It doesn't look so good
Let's hear your
Chest...
Apply the tourniquet
The doctor is the judge
The scalpel and the drugs oh
You may sing like Caruso
You may make people cry
You may sing like Caruso
You're not mine
Sing like Caruso
Sing like Caruso
Boom ba ba boom
Ba boom boom
See your reflection...
It hasn't changed
See your reflection and tell me
It's not you
Deceptive Light...
Valpolicella...
Bring on the night
Let's go out together
You may sing like Caruso
You may make people cry




You may sing like Caruso
You're not mine

Overall Meaning

The song "Caruso" by Fischer-Z appears to be a tale of a young woman who is undergoing a medical examination from a doctor. She is described as having a room with an inflatable chair and often pretending that life is unpredictable. The doctor is portrayed as a judge with a scalpel and drugs. The lyrics "You may sing like Caruso, you may make people cry" could be seen as a metaphor for the young woman's vulnerability in contrast to the doctor's power. The line "You're not mine" echoes a theme of separation, perhaps between the patient and the doctor, or possibly between the young woman and someone else.


The song's theme of separation is reinforced again in the second half of the song. The lines "Another morning, another day" suggest a sense of routine and monotony. The request for flowers from a "sweet bouquet" may be seen as an attempt to brighten up an otherwise boring day. The reference to "Deceptive Light" may be interpreted as a darker, less trustworthy side to the world that surrounds us. The reference to "Valpolicella" could be referencing the wine region in Italy, possibly alluding to an escape or a more carefree lifestyle. Overall, the song has a haunting quality that seems to suggest a sense of unease, especially when combined with its allusions to power dynamics and separation.
