Konge Til Knægt - Peter Sommer

Jeg løj en del, da jeg var dreng

Sagde, jeg savned' ingenting

Det blev ved, det blev ved

Så den idé er langt fra død

Det ser bare så'n ud, og det går

Som det går, når man fægter med sig selv

For der mangler ligesom nogen

Der mangler altid noget

En drøm af en bil

Os to på flugt fra os selv

Ud' at køre med min tvivl

Og så dig som chauffør

Hvor ska' vi hen — bare væk?

Ja, undskyld, jeg spørger

Hvorfor?

Ja, hvorfor?

Fordi den her konge

Kun var knægt i ånden

Derfor, ja, derfor

Spiser mig selv til morgenmad

Så er jeg væk, så er jeg glad

Det' nemt, det' så nemt

Ønskebrønd med grundbehov

Og ingen spand og intet tov

Så her står jeg uden dig

Hvorfor?

Hvorfor?

Fordi

Ja, derfor

Ud' at køre med min tvivl

Og så dig som chauffør

Hvor ska' vi hen — bare væk?

Ja, undskyld, jeg spørger

Hvorfor?

Ja, hvorfor?

Fordi den her konge

Kun var knægt i ånden

Ja, derfor, derfor

I lied a lot when I was a boy

Said I missed nothing

It went on, it went on

So that idea is far from dead

It just looks like that and it goes

As it goes when fencing with oneself

For there is missing like someone

There is always something missing

A dream of a car

The two of us on the run from ourselves

Out 'running with my doubts

And saw you as a driver

Where are we going - just away?

Yes, sorry, I ask

Why?

Yes why?

Because this king

Only was kid in spirit

Therefore, yes, therefore

Eat myself for breakfast

Then I'm gone, then I'm happy

It 'easy, it' so easy

Desired well with basic needs

And no bucket and no rope

So here I stand without you

Why?

Why?

Because

Yes, therefore

Out 'running with my doubts

And saw you as a driver

Where are we going - just away?

Yes, sorry, I ask

Why?

Yes why?

Because this king

Only was kid in spirit

Yes, therefore, therefore
