Three Girl Rhumba
Klonhertz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Think of a number, divide it by two, something is nothing, nothing is nothing.
Open a box, tear off the lid, then think of a number, don't think of an answer.
Open your eyes, think of a number, don't get swept under, a number's a number A
chance encounter you want to avoid, the inevitable, so you do, oh yes you do
the impossible Now you ain't got a number, you just want to rhumba, and there
ain't no way you're gonna go under Go under




Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Klonhertz's song Three Girl Rhumba describe the idea of numbers and their inability to always provide a clear answer or solution. The opening line, "Think of a number, divide it by two," suggests an arbitrary mathematical task that leads to nothing meaningful. The lines "something is nothing, nothing is nothing" express the idea that sometimes numbers seem to be more abstract than concrete, and that there is not always a clear correlation between numbers and their real-world meaning.


The lyrics go on to describe a situation in which the singer is faced with a difficult decision or circumstance ("a chance encounter you want to avoid"), but instead of relying on numbers or logic to solve the problem, they turn to music and dancing ("you just want to rhumba"). The line "and there ain't no way you're gonna go under" shows the defiant spirit of the singer, refusing to be weighed down by the uncertainties and difficulties of daily life.


Overall, the lyrics to Three Girl Rhumba are both playful and thought-provoking, expressing a sense of skepticism about the power of numbers and offering music and dance as a way to resist life's challenges.


Line by Line Meaning

Think of a number, divide it by two, something is nothing, nothing is nothing.
Consider any number, divide it by two, and realize that whatever result you get is essentially meaningless and insignificant.


Open a box, tear off the lid, then think of a number, don't think of an answer.
Imagine uncovering a secret or mystery, and then trying to decipher it by assigning a number to it, but not getting too caught up in finding a definitive solution.


Open your eyes, think of a number, don't get swept under, a number's a number.
Wake up to reality, recognize the importance of numbers in our lives, but don't let them overwhelm or control you.


A chance encounter you want to avoid, the inevitable, so you do, oh yes you do the impossible
There are situations that we know are unavoidable, but we still try to avoid them, even if it seems impossible to do so.


Now you ain't got a number, you just want to rhumba, and there ain't no way you're gonna go under Go under
At a certain point, numbers become irrelevant and we just want to dance and enjoy life without worrying about anything dragging us down.

Great and close cover of a brilliant track with a really good video. Perhaps surprising that the origami band are women - are they all called Justine? lol tolhurst

The singer looks as if someone had crossed Bart Simpsons with Terrance and Philipp.
