Bang Bang Bang
Jr. Anti-Sex League Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

En fyrrig ung smed stod ved essa og filte
Hans hammer lå ubrukt men essa var klar
Da kom det en veldreid ung dame og smilte
Og ba "Vil du prøve den smia jeg har"
Det sa dingelibangbang dingeligbangbang dingeligbangbang dingeligbang
Det sa dingeligbangbang dingeligbangbang dingeligbangbang dei
"Jeg vil " svarte smeden Han
Gikk med til smia
Der la de vekk klærne og tok i et tak
Arbeidet var hett det ble heitere sia'
Hun pustet til varmen det var ingen sak
Det sa dingeligbang etc
"Min mann " klaget damen "bekymring meg volder
Hans styrke og redskap er ei hva de var"
"Men mine " sa smeden "de vet jeg nok holder
Og nå er jeg klar til å gi det jeg har"
Det sa dingeligbang etc
Rødglødende varmt var hans jern slik de ville
Og han var for vis til da ikke å smi
Sa hun "jeg bad ikke deg hit for å dille
Jeg ber deg klem til og legg kreftene i"
Det sa dingeligbang etc
Seks ganger fikk jernet en hardhendt behandling
Og myknet i essa for atter å bli
Herdet og gjennomgå grundig forvandling
Men hver gang det myknet tok det lengre tid
Det sa dingeligbang etc
Da smeden sku' gå sukket damen på gården
"Hva ville jeg gi hvis min mann var så vill
Du smed ta med hammer'n og kom hit i morgen




Men førenn du går kan du smi en gang til"
Det sa dingeligbang etc

Overall Meaning

The Jr. Anti-Sex League’s song “Bang Bang Bang” is a humorous take on the human instinct to capture moments in photographs. It portrays various iconic moments in history like a caveman’s wedding, Adam and Eve’s wedding, Juliet and Romeo’s love affair, Anne Boleyn’s execution, and Napoleon’s marriage to Josephine. Each time, the photographer yells out “'Old it, flash, bang, wallop, what a picture, what a photograph” and captures the moment, usually with some comical mishap.


The lyrics draw attention to the desire to capture moments and the consequences of capturing them. The song highlights the paradox of wanting to preserve moments in time, but also acknowledging that capturing a moment can never truly recreate the experience. The line “stick it in your family album” emphasizes how these moments will be remembered and passed down through generations, but the lyrics also suggest that the photographs will never capture the essence of the moment.


Overall, the song is a humorous yet thought-provoking take on the human instinct to capture and preserve moments in photographs. It mocks the absurdity of human history and the idea of wanting to hold onto moments that can never be truly captured.

Damn this 2 minute clip has more humour than most modern comedies have in the whole movie.

@Umiedo

Sunfire \o/ this is a modern comedy you dimwit

@hattrickster33

@@Umiedo I think he's referring to SJW-era comedy. Many comedians are too scared to do anything like this. At the time this was made, this wasn't nearly as much of an issue.

@Sirdiggar

@@hattrickster33 Yea we now live in an era of snowflakes and cry babies. Unfortunately.
