What would you do
If I suddenly stood in front of you again?
What would you do
If I fell down here at your feet?
What would you do
If I did that?
What would you do
If I took your face in my hands again?
What would you do
If I brought my mouth close to yours?
What would you do
If I did that?
Would you laugh, would you curse?
Would you say that I'm an *sshole?
Would you cry, would you swear?
Would you say you don't know me anymore?
Would you laugh, would you curse
Out of sorrow?
What would you say
If I told you about all that time?
What would you say if I said
"I truly don't regret any of that time."
What would you say
What would you do
If I did that?
Well, what would you do?
Would you laugh, would you curse?
Would you say that I'm an *sshole?
Would you cry, would you swear?
Would you say you don't know me anymore?
Would you laugh, would you curse
Out of sorrow?
What would you do
If I suddenly stood in front of you again?
What would you do
If I fell down here at your feet?
What would you do
If I did that?
Would you laugh, would you curse?
Would you say that I'm an *sshole?
Would you cry, would you swear?
Would you say you don't know me anymore?
Would you laugh, would you curse
Out of sorrow?
You'd laugh, you'd curse
You'd say that I'm an *sshole
You'd cry, you'd swear
You'd say you don't know me anymore
You'd laugh, you'd curse
Out of sorrow
What would you do?

SONG MEANING

BLØF’s “Wat Zou Je Doen” is a dramatic thought-experiment set to music. The Dutch rock band turns a simple question — “What would you do?” — into an emotional roller-coaster. Picture the singer suddenly reappearing in front of an old lover, heart in hand, ready to drop to his knees. Every line paints a different scenario: a tender touch, a near-kiss, a confession that he still has zero regrets about the past. The hook repeats like a heartbeat, reminding us that love rarely offers neat answers.

The song is really a catalog of possible reactions to an unexpected reunion. Would the ex laugh, curse, cry, or act like she never knew him? By listing each reaction, BLØF highlights how raw feelings can swing from rage to longing in seconds. Underneath the hypothetical drama lies a deeper message: unresolved love keeps both people guessing, trapped in a loop of what-ifs and what-nows. Listening to this track is like opening an emotional choose-your-own-adventure, where every choice hurts a little yet keeps hope alive.
