Wat je maar wilt

Bertus Staigerpaip's song "Wat je maar wilt" is a lively and carefree anthem that celebrates freedom, acceptance, and the joy of living in the moment. The recurring refrain, "Ja wat je maar wilt, wat je ook doet, kan mij niet schelen, 'k vind 't best, vind alles goed," translates to "Yes, whatever you want, whatever you do, I don't care, I think it's fine, I find everything good." This sets the tone for the entire song, emphasizing a laid-back attitude and a willingness to go along with whatever the night brings.

The lyrics describe a night out where the protagonist is open to any experience, whether it's dealing with conflict by simply turning away or offering to take someone home so they don't have to go alone. The lines, "Ik breng je wel naar huis, dan hoef je niet alleen te gaan, ik bied je alles, wat je niet af kunt slaan," which mean "I'll take you home, so you don't have to go alone, I offer you everything, that you can't refuse," highlight a sense of chivalry and generosity. The protagonist is willing to do whatever it takes to make the other person feel comfortable and happy, even if it's just for one night.

The song also touches on themes of spontaneity and living in the present. The repeated phrase, "Vind alles best, alleen vandaag," meaning "I find everything fine, just for today," suggests a temporary suspension of worries and responsibilities. This carefree attitude is further emphasized by the mention of turning away from conflict and focusing on enjoying the moment. The song captures the essence of a night out where anything can happen, and everything is accepted with open arms.
