In the narrative sense the title speaks for itself.
In the lyrical sense the song is about the tough life of a young Algerian who’s suffering from deprivation.
lyrics
I'm hungry for life
I'm hungry for death
I'm for whatever is real
I'm hungry for you
I'm hungry for me
I just wanna taste
Small sized packaged life
empty slot, ain't no prize
remember where you've never been
just remember the song yeah
let it go let it go let it go yeah
What do we say to the chef
I'M HUNGRY
open the kitchen 'cause
I'M HUNGRY
did they give us forks?
NO I'M HUNGRY
now one last time!
I'm HUNGRY
I'm hungry for some truth
I'm hungry for some youth
I'm sick of rusty screws
I want that chair to be free
it smells of old people's feet
Small sized packaged life
empty slot, ain't no prize
remember where you've never been
just remember the song yeah
let it go let it go let it go yeah
when all this got into my head
beneath my skin I must be dead
'cause now I know what could be there
I'm hungry
1 2 3 you wanna take the sea
4 5 6 then you're caught by pricks
7 8 9 you wish it was fine
then you crack you say country oh'mine
Small sized packaged life
empty slot, ain't no prize
remember where you've never been
just remember the song yeah
let it go let it go let it go yeah
What do we say to the chef
I'M HUNGRY
open the kitchen 'cause
I'M HUNGRY
did they give us forks
NO I'M HUNGRY
now one last time!
I'm HUNGRY
We are caught by the mist
as we tighten our fists
We forget we're distracted now
''well it was never OUR fault! it was always them!''
THERE AIN'T NOT THEM IN HERE
Small sized packaged life
empty slot, ain't no prize
remember where you've never been
just remember the song yeah
let it go let it go let it go yeah
when all this got into my head
beneath my skin I must be dead
'cause now I know what could be there
I'm hungry
when all this got into my head
beneath my skin I must be dead
'cause now I know what could be there
I'm hungry
I'm hungry
