Note: This section uses generative AI, which can be inaccurate. The repetitive rhythm and catchy chorus reinforce the message that ordinary people are trapped in their routines and long for something more exciting and fulfilling. The reference to Aldi bags, a popular supermarket in Germany, adds an ironic twist to the theme, suggesting that even the most mundane objects can have desires and aspirations.
The song is a satirical commentary on the dullness and hopelessness of everyday life, and the fantasy of escaping it through dreams. The chorus suggests that even the cheap Aldi bags dream of the beautiful women who buy and eat groceries, while their men drink Hansa-Pils, a German beer brand. They often feel empty, but everything seems too difficult for them. The lyrics of Die Doofen's song Wenn Aldi-Tüten träumen ('When Aldi bags dream' in English) describe the monotonous lives of people who have no goals, nothing to do, and spend their days hanging out at the bar.
