AC/DC
Rose Tattoo
The Who, Thin Lizzy
Und Kiss dazu
Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Rush und Purple Deep
Aerosmith, ZZ Top, Queen, Uriah Heep

Mach es laut! Rock Muzik!
Mach es laut! Rock Muzik!

Shoobie doobie do wop - Ich geh nicht in die Disco
Bop bop shoo wop - Keine Chance!
Shoobie doobie do wop - Weil ich zu Disco
Bop bop shoo wop - Nun mal nicht tanz

Ich red mir doch den Mund nicht fusslig
Everybody talk about Rock Muzik
Talk about - Rock Muzik
Talk about - Rock Muzik

Gröl es in der U-Bahn
Brüll es durchs Büro
Sing es in der Schule
Und anderswo
Ene mene miste, wir rocken in der Kiste
Ene mene mu - und wo rockst du?

Sag noch einmal - Rock Muzik
Noch einmal - Rock Muzik

Shoobie doobie do wop - Schnell und langsam
Bop bop shoo wop - Dur und Moll
Shoobie doobie do wop - Sex und Drugs und
Bop bop shoo wop - Rock and Roll!

Hit it!

Der Mensch ist so
Schon ewig lang
Er liebt den Wein
Weib und Gesang

Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala

Auf der ganzen Welt
Wo immer du bist
Stell Dir vor, Du wärst der beste
Luftgitarrist
Stell dich vor den Spiegel, laut musst Du drehn
Lass die Haare fliegen, lass die Haare wehn

Und noch einmal: Rock Muzik
Noch einmal: Rock Muzik!

Shoobie doobie do wop - Schüttelt Eure Köpfe
Bop bop shoo wop - Ballt die Faust
Shoobie doobie do wop - Hebt sie in die Lüfte
Bop bop shoo wop - Rockt das Haus

Wir bangen uns hier dumm und dusslig
Denn zu geil ist die *mm* Rock Muzik

Auch wenn wir nicht
Am schönsten klingen
Scheiß drauf
Lasst uns weitersingen:





Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of J.B.O.'s "Rock Muzik" are essentially an ode to the power and allure of rock music. The song name-checks iconic bands like AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Queen, and ZZ Top, celebrating their contributions to the genre. The chorus implores the listener to "make it loud," as if the volume and intensity of rock music can transport them into another realm. The verses contrast rock music with the superficiality of disco, with the singer stating that they refuse to go to a disco and instead choose to revel in the glory of rock.


Despite the simplistic, almost silly nature of the song, there's a clear passion and reverence for rock music at its core. One of the more interesting lyrical choices is the line "He loves the wine, women, and song," which is a quote from the Roman poet Horace. The inclusion of this reference emphasizes the idea that the love of music and revelry spans all of human history.


Overall, "Rock Muzik" is a fun, upbeat, and celebratory song that captures the spirit of rock music and its appeal to millions of people around the world.
