Interpretation
The song lyrics 'Scheiss drauf! (Mallorca is only once a year)' by
Peter Wackel is an anthem to the wild partying and carefree attitude during a vacation on the Spanish island of Mallorca. The singer describes how he continues to party despite the hangover and physical discomfort ('The head hurts, the legs too') ('But who cares'), because the opportunity only comes once a year ('Mallorca is only once a year'). The repeated 'Ole Ole and Schalalalalaa' underline the festive atmosphere. The song lyrics illustrate the intense partying with beer and fries, dancing to the music, and singing songs, regardless of their quality ('Hardly any song is too dumb for us'). Despite the negative aspects, such as nausea and lack of sleep, the singer emphasizes the importance of partying and leaves all worries behind ('But who cares').
