Joo joo äiti [English translation]
When I was eight
I asked where we go when we die
And we’re put into graves
And mother said that
In there awaits us...
And then I asked
What I’ll be when I grow up
And do I have to make babies with someone
And mother told me that there’s a catch...
Finally, mom whispered that
Life isn’t tough
It’s good that you sleep
And remember that...
Always when the weather is cool
Warm socks are important
It won’t be forgiven
If...
Yeah yeah mother told me all that’s needed
Yeah she told me all that’s essential
Yeah yeah mother told me all that’s needed
But I didn’t listen, listen, listen no
Listen, listen, listen no
Listen, listen, listen no
When I was thirteen
I wished myself dead
’Cause I loved my friend
And it was onesided
And mom comforted me
And swore that later...
But then, suddenly
I was already thirty two
And still I had the same problems
When I called mother
She said, listen to me...
Finally, mom whispered that
Life isn’t though
If you, at last, remember that...
It’ll always be windy at the sea
Warm socks are important
But when the heart aches...
Yeah yeah mother told me all that’s needed
Yeah she told me all that’s essential
Yeah yeah mother told me all that’s needed
But I didn’t listen, listen, listen, no
Yeah yeah mother told me all that’s needed
Yeah she told me all that’s essential
Yeah yeah mother told me all that’s needed
But I didn’t listen, listen, listen, no
