Manchmal haben Frauen... explained

"Manchmal haben Frauen..." ("Sometimes, women have...") is a song by German rock band Die Ärzte. It is the eleventh track and the second single from their 2000 album Runter mit den Spendierhosen, Unsichtbarer!.

The song is about a man who meets a drunk man in a bar who tells him something that's unbelievable for him—sometimes women like a little spanking. The man rushes home and asks his girlfriend about this. The woman starts to beat the man stating that guys like him always deserve some beating.

B-sides

• "Rettet die Wale" ("Save the whales") is a call to save the whales. A Japanese language version was released on the Japanese compilation "Poptastic Conversation", titled "Kujira o sukue". It's unknown if this selection was intentional, but it fits well, because in Japan, whaling is legal.
• "Matthäus 1:5:0" is about football player Lothar Matthäus, the title a pun on the German name for Matthew the Evangelist, the citation form for Bible passages and football scores.
• "Methan" ("Methane") is about people who are always looking for a fight.
