The song is about the unnamed cokehead girl; Falco is just part of her crew. And the chorus is him still talking about her interaction with the cops, where she tries to pass for sober ("Alles klar, Herr Kommissar?"), fails hilarious, and goes on the run.
The video, on the other hand, is about Falco. He's the one who tries to play it straight for the cops and ends up getting chased by every cop car in Vienna. The girl is just a background character, to explain how he got into this situation.
Either way, it's still about coke, and about how the danger is part of what makes it thrilling. But by making it more first-person, I think the video makes it work even better. Or maybe it's just that his face as he gets himself ready for the "alles klar" line is the funniest thing in any music video ever.
