The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Cherie" by the artist "Von Wegen Lisbeth"

Contents

The song "Cherie" by Von Wegen Lisbeth depicts a girl - a stereotypical representative of the hipster scene in Berlin. She follows trends, might be overly concerned with healthy living, uses drugs, but pretends to care about the environment.

The lyrics drip with irony as the narrator points out her attempt to appear confident ("you squeeze my hand"), her superficiality ("you're still finishing your beer, but I already know, in essence, how things are going in your life"), and her hypocrisy ("don't tell me anything about the rainforests, honey, if you're on coke yourself").

He observes her with sarcasm and detachment, emphasized by the recurring line "And you see me leaving at 4 a.m., sneaking out." The culmination comes when her iPhone falls into the canal - a symbol that her whole "beautiful" life is just an illusion. The narrator feels neither pity nor love for her, as evidenced by the indifferent "Let me know if you need me."

Du bist nicht super selbstbewusst

Nur weil du zur Begrüßung

Meine Hand zerquetschst

Gut ist der, der schon von Anfang an

Auf einen sehr breit

Aufgestellten Abschluss setzt

Ja ich weiß, trinkst du dein Bier noch aus

Wie macht sich sowas

Eigentlich auf deinem Lebenslauf

Sexy Blick,

Wenn du den Rauch ausstößt

Ich gucke neidisch zu,

Wie er sich in Luft auflöst

Und du siehst mich nachts um vier

Ich schleich auf Socken aus der Tür

Mach es gut Chérie

Als dein iPhone so grazil

In den Landwehrkanal fiel, wusste ich

Schöner wird es nie

Tut mir leid, doch ich bin raus

Sag Bescheid, wenn du mich brauchst

Lass doch einfach mal den Weizen weg

Das ist gar nicht gut mit dem Gluten und so

Ja ich weiß, ich find dein' Leberfleck

Eigentlich interessanter als dein Telefon

Ach Chérie, es ist mir echt egal

Was du wo und wann gerne für Drogen frisst

Doch erzähl mir nichts

Von diesem Regenwald,

Honey, wenn du selbst gerade am Koksen bist

Und du siehst mich nachts um vier

Ich schleich auf Socken aus der Tür

Mach es gut Chérie

Als dein iPhone so grazil

In den Landwehrkanal fiel, wusste ich

Schöner wird es nie

Tut mir leid, doch ich bin raus

Sag Bescheid, wenn du mich brauchst

Mach es gut Chérie

Als dein iPhone so grazil

In den Landwehrkanal fiel, wusste ich

Schöner wird es nie

Sag Bescheid, wenn du mich brauchst

Tut mir leid, doch ich bin raus
