Rammstein: Keine Lust Meaning

Song Released: 2005

Keine Lust 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...

   I would partially agree to the interpretation above, but I also think the less metaphoric, resp. more obvious sexual innuendos, shouldn't be ignored, so you may see the message
   "overweight kills the libido" as well.
   
   However this only makes sense in combination with the official video clip to the song in which they are wearing fat suits.
   
   The german word "Lust" may also be translated as voluptuousness
   Ich hab keine Lust ~ I don't feel any voluptuousness
   
   the lines "I don't feel like touching myself, don't feel like masturbating" speak for themselves
   
   and in "...und merke bald, ich bin schon lange kalt" "I am [...] cold" may be understood as I don't feel any more "erotic heat" in me.
   
   finally I don't think in the video, that when Till throws the microphone away, it's not because he doesn't feel like to finish , but because he is too exhausted:
   
   -> right after you can see the nurse with an oxygen cylinder supplying him with oxygen, indicating that you may have difficulties to breath as an overweighted (since he is wearing a fat suit, making him appear like one).

   This song represents Rammstein doing away with their fame, success, and wealth. The line "Ich hab Keine Lust" translates to "No Desire" as they are fed up with the circus that surrounds them and their music, and decide to give it up. And do one last performance just for the music. In the video all the band members arrive in old Mercedes wearing fat suits, symbolizing the excess in their life and not wanting to do anything. Their instruments are filthy and dust covered. Another example of this I don't care theme is during the song Till just throws his microphone down not even finishing the verse cause he doesn't feel like it. Till is shown in the back of the limo chewing on a cigar ignoring the two beautiful women making out, yet another example. Flake is the only member that's skinny cause he has no desire to eat. And another line towards the end is "So Kalt, Mir ist Kalt" translates to "So Frigid, I'm Cold" meaning they are indifferent and empty inside. And at the end of the video everyone gets back in their limo's and leave Flake all alone. Flake rises out of his wheelchair and and walks forward, this might show that the band still wants to play but won't.
