Mama Hat Gesagt is a cheeky celebration of rebellion, self-belief and motherly wisdom. The narrator looks back on his school days, confessing he was there mainly to annoy teachers and classmates, yet all the while hearing his mom’s mantra: “If you want, you can become anything.” Taking this advice literally, he decides to become “a bit crazy,” ignoring traditional careers like police officer or teacher and instead embracing a loud, mischievous path that eventually leads to musical stardom. The chorus flips what could have been a scolding into a sing-along victory lap—now the very people he once irritated are chanting his words.
Rather than preaching perfect behavior, the song highlights how unconditional encouragement can turn youthful chaos into creative success. Mom’s rules are simple: save money, follow your heart, learn from mistakes, and reach for the stars (“Du bist ein Astronaut, greife nach den Sternen”). By trusting those guidelines while refusing to be “normal,” the narrator proves that authenticity can pay off—the walls are now covered in gold records, and Mom beams with pride. Packed with humor, catchy hooks and playful self-deprecation, this track reminds learners that a little craziness, when fueled by genuine support, can turn dreams into reality.
