Rammstein - Keine Lust

I posted this video on culturelovesus a long time ago, but I just saw it again and had to put it up anew. It is so strong - humorous, yet deep and dark...fun to watch and entertaining, brilliant idea and execution. For those of you that don't know German, below is a translation of the lyrics.



I don't feel like it
I don't feel like it
I don't feel like it
I don't feel like it

I don't feel like not hating myself
Don't feel like touching myself
I would feel like masturbating
Don't feel like trying it
I would feel like getting undressed
Don't feel like seeing myself naked

I would feel like it with big animals
Don't feel like risking it
Don't feel like going from the snow
Don't feel like freezing

I don't feel like it
I don't feel like it
I don't feel like it
No I don't feel like it

I don't feel like chewing anything
because I don't feel like digesting it
Don't feel like weighing myself
Don't feel like lying in fat

I would feel like it with big animals
Don't feel like risking it
Don't feel like going from the snow
Don't feel like freezing
I'll just keep lying here
and I'll count the flies again
I listlessly touch myself
and notice I've been frigid for a long time already
So frigid, I'm cold . . .

I don't feel like it.

This is the same band that did "Du Hast", right? (Confession: I did a lip sync every year to that song in junior high school for language week). I am confused about the juxtaposition between the young skinny girls making out and breathing fire against the overweight band. The lyrics seem to play into the weight issue, and I get that connection, but what about the girls? Does it have to do with wealth?
