Wenn die nach vorn fällt

Mike Krüger's song 'Wenn die nach vorn fällt' is a humorous and light-hearted narrative about an unexpected and somewhat intimidating encounter at a disco. The protagonist describes going to a nightclub late in the evening and noticing a particularly striking woman at the bar. The description of her as 'zwei Zentner schwer' (weighing two hundred kilograms) sets the stage for the comedic tone of the song. This exaggerated physical description is a classic example of Krüger's use of humor and hyperbole to entertain his audience.

The song takes a turn when the protagonist realizes it is 'Damenwahl' (ladies' choice), and the woman approaches him. The lyrics humorously describe her grabbing him with her 'Pranken' (paws), emphasizing her strength and the protagonist's sense of being overpowered. The chorus, 'Wenn die nach vorn fällt' (if she falls forward), is a playful exaggeration of the potential consequences of her falling on him, suggesting he would be completely flattened and the evening would be ruined. This imagery is both funny and vivid, painting a picture of the protagonist's exaggerated fear and the absurdity of the situation.

'Wenn die nach vorn fällt' fits perfectly into his repertoire, showcasing his ability to blend humor with catchy melodies.
