Schei

The song "Schei" by Boehse Onkelz is a powerful anthem of rebellion against societal norms, hypocrisy, and control. The lyrics express a deep frustration with the superficiality and emptiness of societal discourse. The repeated lines, "Ich hör' Euch reden, doch niemals fragen. Ich hör' Euch reden, reden, doch nichts sagen," highlight the artist's disdain for meaningless conversations that lack substance and genuine inquiry. This sentiment is further emphasized by the mention of "leere Phrasen" (empty phrases) that neither hurt nor disturb, indicating a desire for more authentic and impactful communication.

The song also critiques the double standards and moral hypocrisy prevalent in society. The lines, "Ich hasse Eure Lügen, Eure doppelte Moral und Eure sogenannte Freiheit ist mir scheißegal," reveal a strong aversion to the lies and double morality that the artist perceives in societal norms. The so-called freedom that society offers is dismissed as irrelevant and insincere. This rejection of societal constraints is a recurring theme, as the artist questions what is forbidden, what is legal, and what is considered normal or degenerate.

Furthermore, the song emphasizes the importance of personal freedom and the right to self-expression. The artist asserts their determination to speak and fight for their beliefs, regardless of societal pressures to conform. The lines, "Wenn ich reden will, dann tu ich's, ihr bringt mich nicht zum Schweigen. Wenn ich kämpfen muß, dann tu ich's, niemand bringt mich zum Verneigen," underscore a resolute commitment to resisting censorship and control. The song ultimately serves as a rallying cry for individuality and resistance against oppressive societal norms, encouraging listeners to question and challenge the status quo.
