Swill Town

Versions: #2
[The poor]:
Why should we care?
That the fine lord has been murdered
Why should we care?
We know we'll get another
Why should we care?
That one of the noble has fallen
Why should we care?
Forget them and the posh city
 
Swill Town smells like a dunghill
Be welcome here, walk right on in!
Animals or people - the manure’s the same!
If you're afraid of some stench, get out of here now!
If it frightens you when we follow your every step,
Keep to yourself!
 
Swill Town is a place where everyone harms everyone
Where you can never hide, never get peace
But even in the dark among enemies and hunger
We have unwritten laws that are always followed...
 
Why should we care?
That one of the noble has fallen
Why should we care?
Forget them and the posh city
 
When we go to 'posh Dunark'
We feel the cold and contempt
All those with money kick at us
And now they're fighting for the glory and power
But the people you meet around here,
Will win nothing
 
Swill Town is a place that'll never be anything but dirt
And when the rich man fights, the poor man is quiet
Quiet when he's hungry and living on spite1
Who will win the power now? Why should we care?
 
Why should we care?
That the fine lord has been murdered
Why should we care?
We know we'll get another!
 
  • 1. The original text actually has a double meaning here: 'på trods [af]' means 'in spite [of]' but living 'på' something can also mean that it's what you're sustaining yourself with/eating. Thus they are both sustaining themselves on spite and living in spite of what the rich in the city think of them.

Far Away From Here





This is the room, the sacred nest
Of that girl so richly dressed,
Tranquil and ready for her guest.
 

With one hand she fans her nipples
Elbow on the couch at rest
Listening to the ponds and ripples.
 

This room is Dorothy's. The play
Of wind and water, far away,
With fainting song and rhythmic sobs,
Through her reverie hums and throbs.
 

From head to toe with greatest care
Her skin is polished, to adorn her
With benjamin and oils as rare...
Some flowers are swooning in a corner.

Bongo bongo bongo





One day a missionary went down there to the Equator
He wanted to civilize the blacks who lived in that region
He tried to convince them that life was better here
But a black man, with nonchalance, replied to him, alas, like this:
 

'Oh... bongo, bongo, bongo
I’m fine here in the Congo
I won’t move, no, no!
(No, no, no, no)
Bingo, bango, bengo
I’m sorry, but I won’t come
I’ll stay here
I don’t want tight shoes
Soap bars, trains, and taxis
But with this alarm clock around my neck
I’m fine here, here, here'
 

Patiently, the missionary continued to speak to him
About futurist painting, swing music, and bridges on the Po
While he was describing the great fashion of Paris
That black man, annoyed, replied again like this:
 

'Oh... bongo, bongo, bongo
I’m fine here in the Congo
I won’t move, no, no!
(No, no, no, no)
Bingo, bango, bengo
I’m sorry, but I won’t come
I’ll stay here
I don’t want motorcycle rides
Bounced checks, nor vermouth gin
But with these rings in my nose
I’m fine here... and I won’t move!
What do I find down there with you?
Atomic bombs and nothing more!
Christian Dior with the models
Strikers with their signs
And that guy who’s coming
You won’t charm me... I’m staying here!'

Jealousy





Love means jealousy
For those who fall in love with you
Perhaps you don’t realize what you do to me
What you do to my heart, to my life
If love means jealousy
Who will ever love you more than me?
I tremble at the thought that one day
A love taught you
To kiss like this
 

If love means jealousy
Who will ever love you more than me?
I tremble at the thought that one day
A love taught you
To kiss like this
