Marrakesh

I
am riding in the sand
Dazzled
by the sun in the east
Riding
among Tuareg
towards a fairy tale city
 
Marrakesh
Marrakesh
 
Following
traces in the sand
Riding
in the dream, forwards
Among us
rides a mirage
I suppose he rides first
 
Marrakesh
Marrakesh
 
I
wake up
with sand
in my mouth
The same phrase,
the same rhythm
is played on the radio
 
Marrakesh
Marrakesh

I Am a Man

I am a man
I do the best I can
You will never understand
Lord and count and baron
 
I am a man
A phenomenon of nature
Head, shoulders, arm, and leg
From top to bottom, a real man
 
Between us competitors
Between us competitors
Your anticlimax, I took your
daughter from you
 
I am a man
X and Y in genetics
Masculine motor skills
Here is all that is needed
 
I am a man
I make bricks without straw
and sing in front of an audience
I don't need you
 
Between us competitors
Between us competitors
Your anticlimax, I took your
daughter from you
 
I am a man
I do the best I can
You will never understand
Lord and count and baron
 
Between us competitors
Between us competitors
Your anticlimax, I took your

The Device Who Knew Too Much

Any time of the day
he stood in front of the device,
as you in the past
prayed to a god of stone
Because he got help from this
to do good business
He became rich
and thanked his god
We need each other
I have questions, you have answers
Even though I can think,
you do it very fast
 
Soon the entire world is ours
 
Fortune came to him
and then it went home again
when his wife
moved down in the basement
So he went to consult
the electronic genius
why the wife
always had a headache
 
Soon the entire world is ours
Soon the entire world is ours
Soon the entire world is ours
 
And I need your brain
Power is money and money is power
You can think
very fast, you get half my kingdom
I am everything you need
You have questions, I have answers
Even though you can think,
I do it very fast
But don't pull out my plug
 
Soon the entire world is mine
Soon the entire world is mine
Soon the entire world is mine
 
Soon the entire world is mine
Soon the entire world is mine
Soon the entire world is mine
 

My Instinct

My body can lie about
what my soul has to say
I am always prepared
as a protection against eternal misfortune
I have a picture in my head
and it corresponds to expectations
I have a picture in my head
but always act with certain doubt
 
High mountains and deep valleys
High mountains and deep valleys
Facade against interior
An eternal fight
between vanity and wisdom
 
That my hands are idle
is said to be a weakness
Where I am from
it's called lack of control
My instinct calls on me
but my hand refuses to follow orders
I have a picture but I am
never pleased with the result
 
High mountains and deep valleys
High mountains and deep valleys
Facade against interior
An eternal fight
between vanity and wisdom
 
When the eyes are telling
exactly everything the soul is saying
Then I can be accountable
for my perverse fantasies
 
High mountains and deep valleys
High mountains and deep valleys
Facade against interior
An eternal fight
between vanity and wisdom
 

Riding at Pace

Look behind the gold and try to understand
Some things have a value that is greater still
Take me where you want and fill me with sap
Put your hand on my heart, wake me up
 
The sun is shining brighter
Kisses taste better now
Dawn in a borderland
where hearts beat faster
 
Steer into
my hand
in my hand
 
And we're riding at pace
(And we're riding at pace)
Soon falling into a trance
United in a waltz
(United in a waltz)
as if nothing else existed
 
There is a way to see, and you should see
that behind a wall, there is always more
As soon as I know that you are here,
I think I understand the word love
 
The sun is shining brighter
Kisses taste better now
Dawn in a borderland
where hearts beat faster
 
Steer into
my hand
in my hand
 
And we're riding at pace
(And we're riding at pace)
Soon falling into a trance
United in a waltz
(United in a waltz)
as if nothing else existed
 
Steer into
my hand
in my hand
 
And we're riding at pace
(And we're riding at pace)
Soon falling into a trance
United in a waltz
(United in a waltz)
as if nothing else existed
 
And we're riding at pace
(And we're riding at pace)
Soon falling into a trance
United in a waltz
(United in a waltz)
as if nothing else existed
 

Hero

Oh, hero
Now I am strong
Oh, hero
Now I see everything
Oh, hero
I have wind in my sails
Oh, hero
Repressing a dark horizon
 
And I feel
like a king
You only understand your name from an English mouth
Trying to rein in my horse in a race where
no one finished
 
All the white that turns into black
All the days that just disappeared
All the white that turns into black
All the days that just disappeared
 
Oh, hero
Everything goes so easily
Oh, hero
I just want to say thank you
Oh, hero
The spear goes askew
Oh, hero
You don't understand a thing
 
And I feel
like a king
You only understand your name from an English mouth
I have wind in my sails
I have wind in my sails
I have wind in my sails
 
All the white that turns into black
All the days that just disappeared
All the white that turns into black
All the days that just disappeared
 
All the white that turns into black
All the days that just disappeared
All the white that turns into black
All the days that just disappeared
 
Disappeared...
 

Nothing

When he woke up,
he was alone in the world
No kids fighting
No birds singing
He understood nothing
Could this be possible?
Of his wife and his children,
there was nothing left
Maybe they left
already early this morning
So he got up
to go to his work
All the cars were empty
All the stoplights were green
So he took a car
The road in front was empty
 
Nothing to do
Nothing to say
Nothing to show
Nothing to see
 
No one guarded the bank
where he took three millions
Went to real estate agent Berg
to buy a house
But any real estate agent Berg
was of course not at home,
so he shot with a gun
all the windows to pieces
Picked flowers
in the mayor's flowerbeds
Used the banknotes
as beautiful wallpaper
 
Nothing to do
Nothing to say
Nothing to show
Nothing to see
 
Nothing to see
Nothing to see
Nothing to see
Nothing to see
 

Tourists

Tourists
Boys on the loose
Tourists
gather exotic dust
Tourists
so easily forget a name
Aphorisms
in the margin
 
On the loose
in the foam of the days
On the loose
in the foam of the days
 
We are
tourists
 
Tourists
I'm just sipping
Tourists
Fragments of a place
Tourists
Transvestite in ermine
Tourists
Extras in your movie
 
On the loose
in the foam of the days
On the loose
in the foam of the days
 
We are...
 
On the loose
in the foam of the days
On the loose
in the foam of the days
 
We are
tourists
 

The Beautiful Life

A lies in his bed
Takes a deep whiff of smoke
A is caressed by flames
to sleep
 
B found delight
in a brisk white powder
B found too much
delight
 
The beautiful life
The beautiful life
 
C wakes up in the morning
C goes to his work
Tries to fight off a thought
when he goes home
 
D heard a voice
In his head, a voice
A voice so loud
He stays in his room
 
The beautiful life
The beautiful life
 
The beautiful life
The beautiful life
 

Honey You Are Like a Gun

I love
machine guns
That kind of love
gives so much more
 
Against the wall
disarmed
Against the temple
and begging for more
 
Nothing happens today
Nothing happened yesterday
If there is something that feels,
I want more
 
When the children
start to travel
and see
and beg for more
 
When I see you
in a picture,
I want you
more
 
Nothing happens today
Nothing happened yesterday
If there is something that feels,
I want more
 
I have
proof
that actually
it feels more
 
I love
forests
No one says something that is already said
 
Nothing happens today
Nothing happened yesterday
If there is something that feels,
I want more

Green Wallpapers

I'm playing doctor in my room
Having a clinic in my bed
What I know about surgery is that you
close the door
 
I'm counting walls in my room
Putting them one by one
I never forget what has happened
in any corner
 
Surrounded by green wallpapers

I'm counting rooms in my life and think:
'How many rooms there are'

Peepshow

I'm curiously looking in
to a hole, in a wall
I think we are five
Most with rain coat-dressed bodies
Sacrificing my last penny
for the gaze's touch of a body
I'm excitedly sipping names
I think Lolita tastes the best
 
I am the farmer of my own fortune
and then alone in my bed
I am the farmer of my own fortune
and then alone in my peepshow, peepshow
Peepshow, peepshow
 
Distance makes the heart grow fonder
Exactly what just happened
Therefore I never want to know:
how does a kiss taste?
 
I am the farmer of my own fortune
and then alone in my bed
I am the farmer of my own fortune
and then alone in my peepshow, peepshow
Peepshow, peepshow
 
My idea of romance:
It has a cost and takes too much time
My existence isn't dark
I have my sex life canned
 
I am the farmer of my own fortune
and then alone in my bed
I am the farmer of my own fortune
and then alone in my peepshow, peepshow
Peepshow, peepshow
Peepshow, peepshow
Peepshow, peepshow
Peepshow, peepshow
 

Dancing

I'm dancing
on broken glass
Illuminated
by rockets
Balancing
on patrimony
Consuming
immunity
 
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dancing
 
I'm dancing
traditionally
Step by step
Following tracks
 
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dancing
 
The taste in my mouth
gets out of step
 
You get fended off
Looking surprised
when the emptiness
bursts out in screams
 
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dancing
 
I'm dancing
and closing my eyes
Closing my eyes
and dancing
 
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dancing
 
The taste in my mouth
gets out of step
 
Dancing...
 

The Humiliation

All the waves that I have felt
and all the menstruation
All the pussies that have swallowed
my fire
I am a child that so eagerly wants to
get burned 1
All the words that have been said
more than enough
 
I gather up for the summary
I gather up for the summary
 
All the men that I have seen
and all the blood
All the bodies, casings and skin,
empty
All the walls on my way
that have made me blind
All the corpses that have given me food
and humiliation
 
I gather up for the summary
I gather up for the summary
 
All that is put together
at my death
All that is put together
at my death
All that is put together
at my death
All that is put together
at my death
 
I gather up for the summary
I gather up for the summary
I gather up for the summary
I gather up for the summary
 

• 1. Alluding to the Swedish proverb 'bränt barn skyr elden' ('burned child shuns the fire'), carrying the same meaning as 'once bitten twice shy' in English

Happy

I have lots of money and I give them to you, yes only to you
Look at my tax return, I am damn rich, yes eerily rich
I am related to a billionaire, you can see it by my smiling way
But I am more than rich, I am happy
 
You are interested in how big my Swiss deposit box really is
But I don't mind, because I want everyone to see how rich I am
I have five millions and I give them, all of it to you
I am in your ear and I am happy
 
If I say 'flowers' you understand nothing anyway
But I am almost and checkbook, and only you seem to understand that
 
I am rich, I am rich, I am damn rich, oh how rich I am, so rich
I am rich, I am rich, and I am happy
Happy
Happy
