Rosenstolz Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ohohoho - Ahahaha...

Lieb mich wenn du kannst
Nimm mich - nimm mich ganz
Schlag mich wenn du willst
Zeig mir was du fühlst
Steig aus deiner Hose
Zeig mir deine Rose

Lass die Knospe sprießen
Lass Champagner fließen

Lieb mich wenn du kannst
Nimm mich - nimm mich ganz
Nimm mich in die Zange
Küss mich - küss mich lange
Gib mir deine Beine
Lass mich nicht alleine
Lass die Knospe sprießen
Lass Champagner fließen

Geh' mit mir den langen Weg zum Ufer
Musikanten spielen nur für uns
Feen und Elfen tanzen einen Reigen
Blütenlippen küssen meinen Mund

Komm schon mach mich an
Dann las ich dich ran
Die Phantasie bist du
Lass mich nicht in Ruh'
Ich bin von Anfang an
Ganz zwanghaft nymphoman
Lass die Knospe sprießen
Lass Champagner fließen

Red' nicht von Gefühl
Ich lüge schon zuviel
Zum lieben bist du da
Doch komm mir nicht zu nah
Ich bin von Anfang an
Ganz zwanghaft nymphoman
Lass die Knospe sprießen
Lass Champagner fließen

Geh' mit mir den langen Weg...

Ohohoho - Ahahaha

Geh' mit mir den langen Weg...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Rosenstolz's song "Nymphoman" are a bold expression of sexual desire and liberation. The singer is a self-proclaimed nymphomaniac who craves physical intimacy and wants to be taken wholeheartedly by their partner. The tone is assertive, with lines like "Lieb mich wenn du kannst" ("Love me if you can") and "Nimm mich - nimm mich ganz" ("Take me - take me completely"), indicating a desire to be pursued and dominated.

Throughout the song, the singer implores their partner to "show me what you feel" and "let the champagne flow", emphasizing the importance of pleasure and indulgence. They also acknowledge their own compulsion, describing themselves as "ganz zwanghaft nymphoman" ("completely compulsively nymphomaniac").

Towards the end of the song, the lyrics take on an almost mystical quality, with references to "Feen und Elfen" (fairies and elves) dancing and "Blütenlippen" (flower lips) kissing. The overall effect is one of joyful abandon and unapologetic desire.
