V For Volume Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why is it that they can run so fast?
Why it is that I got no place to hide all these nightmares?
and I ain’t got no prayers
ain’t got no rhythm
ain’t got no money
ain’t got no tears to share
ain’t got no life to spare
Here they come again
Is the same dream you had yesterday?
The image of Hulk chasing you round and round
Let’s sleep together
would you scare the monsters in my closet?
Are you ready to call Bruce Lee?
Let’s sleep together
would you call Chuck Norris
or are you ready to call Mr. Lee
Always in my dreams, I picture these flashy ways to die,
Like being smashed on a plane crash at 20000 miles an hour
Here they come again
Is the same dream you had yesterday?
The image of the same plane crashing down
Let’s sleep together
would you scare the monsters in my closet?
Are you ready to call Bruce Lee?
Let’s sleep together
would you call Chuck Norris
or are you ready to call Mr. Lee
Let’s sleep together, would you scare the monsters in my closet?
Are you ready to call Bruce Lee?
Let’s sleep together, would you call Machete
or are you ready to call mr. Lee?
The lyrics to V For Volume's song Bruce Lee portray feelings of fear and vulnerability. The singer feels helpless and defenseless against the nightmares that he is experiencing. He wonders why he cannot run as fast as the approaching danger and why he has no place to hide. The lyrics depict a feeling of despair as the singer feels he has no prayers, rhythm, money or tears. He is almost resigned to his fate, accepting that he has no life to spare or screams left to scare.
The lyrics continue to describe the nightmares that the singer experiences, picturing flashy ways to die such as being smashed in a plane crash at 20000 miles an hour. The repetition of the line "Here they come again" creates a sense of inevitability, as if the danger is constantly looming and cannot be avoided.
The chorus of the song introduces the idea of seeking protection and defence from fictional heroes such as Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris. The singer asks whether his companion would be willing to call on Bruce Lee to protect them from the monsters in the closet, or if they would rather call on Chuck Norris or Machete. This portrays a certain level of desperation and a desire to rely on powerful entities to protect them from the looming danger.
Overall, the lyrics of the song Bruce Lee convey a sense of fear and vulnerability, while also exploring the idea of seeking protection from fictional heroes to ward off the dangers of life.

De verdad que yo no entiendo cómo ARTISTAS como ustedes (y otros tantos de la escena rock nacional), no sean conocidos internacionalmente; ustedes son tremendos señores de V for Volume, en ésta canción tienen una esencia de N.I.N, y la canción de Cheap Universe tiene una energía tremenda. NUNCA es tarde, así que no sería raro que un día de éstos los invitara una agrupación de peso a girar con ellos, y de ahí.... Por fín un buen artista empezando a representarnos afuera.
Toda la mejor vibra para ustedes. Mucho talento hay ahí. 🍷⭐👍

Hay que darle más visibliad. Amo esta y canción junto con Cheap Universe con mis treinta y puntas de años. Si pasar de venteañero a treinta y me sigue pareciendo mero grupo, es porque hay calidad y menos nostalgia.

Como no recordar que hace unos cuantos años la pasaban mucho por el canal 13 y me gusto mucho. Que buena representación del Rock Colombiano 💕
