Elysium

I‘ve traveled the world twice over,
Met the famous; saints and sinners,
Poets and artists, kings and queens,
Old stars and hopeful beginners,
I’ve been where no-one’s been before,
Learned secrets from writers and cooks
All with one library ticket
To the wonderful world of books.

På mäster Olof’s tid

Pappa, hur var det förr?
Berätta hur allt var förr.
Det säjs ingenting, det skrivs ingenting;
Hur var det egentligen förr?

Då hade vi ett respekterad namn.
Då var jag stolt över mitt fosterland.
Man kände till oss vida omkring;
Snart vet man ingenting.
När Sverige talade så lyssna man,
för alla visste att det vi sa var sant.
Att säja ifrån var [...]

Bella Ciao

Una mattina mi son svegliato
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
Una mattina mi son svegliato
Eo ho trovato l’invasor
O partigiano porta mi via
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
O partigiano porta mi via
Che mi sento di morir
E se io muoio da partigiano
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
E se [...]

Warschawjanka

Feindliche Stürme durchtoben die Lüfte,
drohende Wolken verdunkeln das Licht.
Mag uns auch Schmerz und Tod nun erwarten,
gegen die Feinde ruft auf uns die Pflicht.
Wir haben der Freiheit leuchtende Flamme
hoch über unseren Häuptern entfacht:
die Fahne des Sieges, der Völkerbefreiung,
die sicher uns führt in der letzen Schlacht
Auf, auf nun zum blutigen, heiligen Kampfe.
Bezwinge die Feinde, du Arbeitervolk.
Auf [...]

Der Heimliche Aufmarsch

Es geht durch die Welt ein Geflüster:
Arbeiter, hörst du es nicht?
Das sind die Stimmen der Kriegsminister:
Arbeiter, hörst du sie nicht?
Es flüstern die Kohle- und Stahlproduzenten,
Es flüstert die chemische Kriegsproduktion,
Es flüstert von allen Kontinenten:
Mobilmachung gegen die Sowjetunion!
Arbeiter, Bauern, nehmt die Gewehre,
Nehmt die Gewehre zur Hand.
Zerschlagt die faschistische Räuberherde,
Setzt eure Herzen in Brand!
Pflanzt eure roten Banner der [...]

I dreamed I saw Joe hill,

I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night,
alive as you and me.
Says I “But Joe, you’re ten years dead”
“I never died” said he,
“I never died” said he.
“The Copper Bosses killed you Joe,
they shot you Joe” says I.
“Takes more than guns to kill a man”
Says Joe “I didn’t die”
Says Joe “I didn’t die”
“In Salt Lake [...]

Joe hill

Joe Hill come over from Sweden shores
Looking for some work to do
And the Statue of Liberty waved him by
As Joe come a sailing through.
Oh his clothes were coarse and his hopes were high
As he headed for the promised land
And it took a few weeks on the out-of-work streets
Before he [...]

What’s the reason with planning?,

When I am out I find myself being homeward bound. And when I am at home, i’d rather be somewhere else. It’s weird, no doubt.
Just got back from downtown. I had no intention to join the ones in the crowd; I had no intention to join them in their stress running from store to store [...]
