I drömmarnas värld [English translation]

Linnea spends her unemployment money on the Lottary,

Karl-Erik bets everything on a horse,

Andreas has his beloved old motto;

"If one wants to forget the shit alcohol is best."

Sofia believes in wonder from above,

Jan-Ake dreams about robbing a bank,

Cecilia lies quietly and stares at the ceiling,

and hopes to get an inheritance from some unknown aunt.

Yes, they all have their dreams in common.

They all live on some form of hope.

And no ones believes in their own strength.

So they don't even desire to have a job.

Johannes wants to be a star in films,

Maria wants to be a world famous model,

Agneta wants to marry the wealthy,

no matter if the man is mean or nice.

Yes, we will all be fed with myths

of the great deals and of sudden riches.

And we all believe that it is just that we will win,

instead of fighting from the bottom.

Yes, the Prime minister can go out in the country,

and the Labor Market's Board goes home,

And the LO-boss takes a trip in the boat;

Because nothing happens anywhere so nothing matters.

No, nothing happens anywhere so nothing matters.

No, nothing happens anywhere so nothing matters.
