Killerpilze Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Du rennst in den Laden wir setzen deine trend
Drei Killer drücken ab, PENG PENG.
KP Family
Und ihr erzählt es weiter
Eine lawine rollt den berg nach oben
die beste praline die sich die leute je in die münder schoben
Die Meute tobt und es macht BOOM
Deine freundin hat uns schon live gehört
letzte tour oder ist es schon länger her? - Egal
Du hast uns neu entdeckt, blut geleckt und die texte gecheckt
Und beide seid ihr weggeblasen, das ist kein One-Night-Stand
eher schon so Hand-in-Hand
Das ist meine Band!
Das sind die Themen, die dich bewegen
du nimmst sie als dein soundcheck für dein leben zum schweben
und du springst nach oben BOOM
Wir stehen da und schaun euch zu
(Leute erzählen was)
Wir stehen da und schaun euch zu
die bombe tickt und es macht und es macht und es macht BOOOOM
The first verse of the song "Boom" by Killerpilze describes a scene of chaos and excitement, where three killers enter a store and open fire, causing a commotion as the KP family witnesses it all. The lyrics describe the thrill of being part of something exclusive and edgy, as the group watches the scene unfold in front of them. The refrain echoes the excitement of the moment, as the "meute" (German for "crowd") roars and the band stands by, observing the spectacle.
The second verse references the band's fanbase and their loyalty to the music. The lyrics suggest that the band has established its own unique sound and style, and its fans have embraced it wholeheartedly. The lines "das sind die Themen, die dich bewegen" ("these are the themes that move you") suggest that the band's music speaks to its fans on a personal level. The line "du nimmst sie als dein soundcheck für dein leben zum schweben" ("you take them as your soundcheck for your life to float") describes the transformative power of music, elevating the listener to a different level of experience.
Overall, "Boom" is a song that captures the excitement and energy of a rock concert, and celebrates the bond between the band and its fans.
