IKEA - Thomas Holm

Vi sku' en tur i Ikea

En fredag eftermiddag

I din fætters Toyota

For der var et par småting vi sku' ha'

Men allerede på vej derud

Begyndte det at gå galt

Og du blev lynhurtigt skidesur

Bare fordi jeg bad dig om at slappe lidt af

Vi sku' bare ha' en klapstol

Et par skabe og en Billy reol

Og alting var fryd og gammen

Og vi var næsten lige flyttet sammen

Men der var ikke nogen parkeringsplads

Og der var udsolgt af de hvidvinsglas

Vi havde krydset af i kataloget

Og vi kommer aldrig i Ikea igen

Vi blev væk fra hinanden

For du sku' se dig lidt omkring

Efter duftlys, kopper og kander

Og alle mulige andre ligegyldige ting

Men du kom hurtigt tilbage

Med en pude der var helt ubeskrivelig grim

Og du så knap så fornøjet ud

Da jeg sagde: «Den kan du godt glemme alt om at få med hjem»

Vi sku' bare ha' en klapstol

Et par skabe og en Billy reol

Og alting var fryd og gammen

Og vi var næsten lige flyttet sammen

Men der var udsolgt af de hvidvinsglas

Som vi sku' bruge til vores indflytterfest

Og der var ombygning i kantinen

Og vi kommer aldrig i Ikea igen

Men kæden den sprang først for alvor af

Da du ville op og se

På legetøj og børnemøbler

Et sted på første sal

Der var stille i bilen

På hele køreturen hjem

Og jeg tog mig en nat inde i stuen

På vores nyindkøbte gæsteseng

Vi sku' bare ha' en klapstol

Et par skabe og en Billy reol

Og alting var fryd og gammen

Men i Ikea ramlede alting sammen

For der var ikke nogen parkeringsplads

Og der var udsolgt af de hvidvinsglas

Du havde krydset af i kataloget

Og vi kommer aldrig i Ikea igen

Nej, vi kommer aldrig i Ikea igen

We took a trip to Ikea

A Friday afternoon

In your cousin's Toyota

Because there were a few little things we saw

But already on the way there

It started to go wrong

And you quickly got mad

Just because I asked you to relax a little

We just had a folding chair

A couple of cupboards and a Billy bookcase

And everything was joy and fun

And we had almost just moved in together

But there was no parking space

And the white wine glasses were sold out

We had ticked off in the catalogue

And we will never go to Ikea again

We grew apart

Because you look around a bit

After scented candles, cups and jugs

And all sorts of other unimportant things

But you came back quickly

With a pillow that was indescribably ugly

And you looked less than pleased

When I said: «You can forget about bringing it home»

We just had a folding chair

A couple of cupboards and a Billy bookcase

And everything was joy and fun

And we had almost just moved in together

But the white wine glasses were sold out

Which we will use for our housewarming party

And there was remodeling in the canteen

And we will never go to Ikea again

But the chain first really broke off

When you wanted to go up and see

On toys and children's furniture

A place on the first floor

It was quiet in the car

On the whole drive home

And I spent a night in the living room

On our newly purchased guest bed

We just had a folding chair

A couple of cupboards and a Billy bookcase

And everything was joy and fun

But in Ikea, everything came crashing down

Because there was no parking space

And the white wine glasses were sold out

You had checked off in the catalog

And we will never go to Ikea again

No, we will never go to Ikea again
