LYRICS
I wish you smelled a little funny
Not just funny really bad
We could roam the streets forever
Just like cats but we'd never stray
I sometimes wish you were a mermaid
I could raise you in the tub at home
We could take a swim together
On weekly day trips to the bay
Oh you and me
It would be only you and me
Oh you and me
It would be only you and me
I wish you were a little bigger
Not just big but really fat
Doors you would no longer fit through
In my bed you would have to stay
I often wish that you had feathers
I'd keep you in a giant cage
All day long I'd sit and watch you
I'd sing for you and that would be okay
People say there are plenty of fish
In the sea, baby, all I do is wish
I wish you were a little slower
Not just slow but paralyzed
Then I could plug you into a socket
So you could never run away
I really wish that you were smaller
Not just small but really really short
So I could put you in my pocket
And carry you around all day

Als ich den Song zum ersten Mal gehört habe, habe ich mich sofort verliebt 😍

[@karinekuhn7287]

When Sting sings “ Every step you take...”, nobody says it s creepy. Yet it s about stalking. Milow has made a love song about how much he would love to have his sweetheart close to him all of the time. He does this with the humor that we Flemish people appreciate. I first listened to this song 10 years ago at the wedding of my daughter and son in law. Still like it very much.

[@SP-ng5me]

Looking forward to the concert this Saturday in Bad Kissingen

[@solus8685]

Both are terryfying and people definitely know Sting's is more of a stalker song

[@DannyDanwel]

@@solus8685 no no , most people think its a very romatic song, very much used as the opener at there dance

Milow is very great to listen : he has his rythme with most acoustic guitars to pleasure some fresh new songs! Great!!!

Have you guys never wanted to be with someone ALL the time? It's what this song is about. He doesn't say he WANTS her to become these things, he just wishes for the two of them to be forever

[@evakaye5897]

He wishes that she would look ugly so that no one else would be interested in her and he wants to make it impossible for her to leave him... Im sure abusive partners would love this song.

Ich wünschte, du würdest ein wenig komisch riechen Nicht nur komisch, richtig schlecht Wir könnten für immer in den Straßen umherwandern Genau wie Katzen aber wir würden niemals streunern Manchmal wünschte ich, du wärst eine Meerjungfrau Ich könnte dich in der Badewanne zuhause großziehen Wir könnten zusammen schwimmen gehen An wöchentlichen Ausflügen zur Bucht Oh du und ich Es wären nur du und ich Oh du und ich Es wären nur du und ich Ich wünschte, du wärst etwas pummeliger Nicht nur pummelig, richtig fett Durch Türen würdest du nicht mehr passen In meinem Bett müsstest du bleiben Ich wünschte oft, du hättest Federn Ich würde dich in einem riesigen Käfig halten Den ganze Tag würde ich dich ansehen Ich würde für dich singen und das wäre in Ordnung Die Leute sagen, andere Mütter haben auch schöne Töchter, Baby , aber ich wünsche mir nur Ich wünschte, du wärst ein wenig langsamer Nicht nur langsam sondern gelähmt Dann könnte ich dich in eine Steckdose stecken So könntest du niemals weglaufen Ich wünschte wirklich, du wärst kleiner Nicht nur klein sondern winzig So dass ich dich in meine Hosentasche stecken könnte Und dich den ganzen Tag herumtragen könnte

A feel good song... love it!

[@Mzahaka1313]

Can y'all chill? Surely he is hyperbolizing his feelings towards his significant other. Everyone says "I love you more than anything on earth" or "I want to be with you forever"; this guy made it personal and different to show that she is unique to him. As an artist, his imagination is understandably vivid and he used it to express his feelings. I like this song for the tune and never really thought about the words but seeing comments that call it creepy doesn't feel right. This is of course my opinion.

[@AS-gj2hw]

I think people can only really understand these lyrics if they understand where he's from. Even in their native language the Flemish have a tradition of creative lingual expressions and casual jokes. From Urbanus's ' I wanna put your lips around my shoulder' to more recent jokes like 'I once met a girl with a tattoo of a shell on her thighs. It was amazing, if you put your on it you could smell the sea.' That's the kind of mind twister that's common to that area. And still, as long as you don't experience the true mindset you'll probably not be able to put it in perspective. Chill out folks, that's a very good way to start the Flemish experience.
