Volcano Man
Will Ferrell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woke up at night
I heard floating chords
They guided me
To the highland fjords
Above the clouds
On a mountain peak
There he sat
And he began to speak

Volcano Man
He's got my melting heart
Volcanic Protector Man
A timeless hero must love too
Volcano Man
(Volcano Man)
Guarding the land
(Such a man)
Volcanic Protector Man




A timeless hero must love too
And I love you

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Volcano Man" describe a mystical encounter with an otherworldly being. The singer has awakened in the middle of the night to hear "floating chords" that seem to be leading them to a remote location, "the highland fjords." As they ascend to a "mountain peak" above the clouds, they encounter the titular Volcano Man. What this figure represents is left up to interpretation, but it's clear that he's a powerful force, with the ability to melt hearts and guard the land at the same time.


The song goes on to explore the dynamics between a "timeless hero" and the singer, who seems to have fallen in love with him. The idea of a hero who is also a lover is one that has been explored in countless stories and songs, but the addition of the volcanic aspect adds an interesting twist. The volcano is often seen as a destructive force, but here it's presented as a protective one, with the Volcano Man serving as a guardian of the land.


Overall, "Volcano Man" is a quirky and uplifting song that celebrates the power of love and the awe-inspiring beauty of nature.
