DOM SKA VETA [English translation]

[Intro]

They must know (ah)

[Verse 1]

A tiny makeshift stage by the counter on a Monday at the mall

By the highway roundabout I sang playback for nothing

Seemed shady, You used to say ”lil sweetie”

You should be grateful, should be grateful

That was before I had to starve until I soared in corsets above stages that I never got to keep

If I didn’t have the ”follow”, if I didn’t want to ”swallow”

If I wasn’t ”Carola”, wasn’t ”Carola”

[Bridge]

Was so lost but refused to stop (nah)

All that needs to happen must go down

[Chorus]

Aaah

They must know (ah)

Aaah

They must know (ah)

[Verse 2]

My boyfriends were boys

Had six-packs, were a free pass

True divas & real hotties that half of Sweden wished to strangle

Could dance, could sing

Had dreams just like mine, dreams like mine (Dreams, dreams like mine)

In front of all & the camera, no one liked it

All wanted watch me fall until I lay there on a dance floor

No one saw but they all watched, paparazzi, ”Se & Hör” [=gossip magazine]

Poor stupid little girl, stupid little girl

[Bridge]

Was so lost but refused to stop (nah)

All that needs to happen must go down

[Chorus]

Aaah

They must know (ah)

Aaah

They must know (ah)

[Verse 3]

In a backseat on ”Sunset” with a fucking row of palm trees

Spend 10 000 hours, LA dreaming, who is breaking?

Mum dad already split up

My sisters stopped calling, sisters stopped calling

Take a selfie, real tan

Up the ”Hills” in someone’s mansion, all losers,

All famous in a smog of smoke & mist

The producers want to bang me, oh, surprise, deliver lines

Want to rip me off completely

Real tears, real salt
