Torgny [English translation]
Torgny [English translation]
refr.
Na na na na na na na Torgny
This is life
Na na na na na na na Torgny
And those who live get to see
There died Palme, Wreeswijk and Beppe Wolgers
King on the yard in crooked snowjoggings
Moms smoked John Silver under the fan
Up jump the boogie in the closest set of swings
Once in the wall, two for the show
3 times more people hit the wall* today than back then
And we saw it all, not a calm second
Hide and seek, the only time you closed your eyes for a while
We said "this is ours", the yard was big then
We said the same thing when they put us in the school yard
The happy 80's ended, stuff like that happens
Bildt said steel bath, termination at the steelworks
Minister Persson said order in finances
Got a new school, we got twice as big classes
Crazy school, have we learnt anything
Yeah they can say what they want but that is ours, what's up Torgny

The interest on 500 percent
Bought Piggelin for 4 spänn (slang for Swedish Krona)
Belt on hard and they all had to fight against
The parents had to look for red stickers in the store
The dirty kid
Smell of gun powder
The talk for the can
Riksbyggen put locks on the trash rooms
For the Jugoslavs in the refugee center
Who were here a few years, then they probably had to move back home again
Greenery on the knees, scrapes
Everything was so easy in our backyard
We saw when Rocky fought with Ivan Drago
And Rambo with Talibans, on the same team then
No matter how fast you ran
His mom, called his mom
Called the mom of he who smashed the window
That was no special year
Yeah they can say what they want but that is ours, what's up Torgny
refr.
On your bushes the berries were fermented
Togge, why is your nose so red
No institution, some park
But we wore out our soles on the same asphalt
And the same stairs
And we were the richest in the world every time we got to recycle
It meant much, 21 gears on the bicycle
But you didn't pull high gears of much
But the old ladies said it's probably about time
But the sun never bites on our plowed snowpacks
All this should remain, it won't be anything
But we heard how they said that the ice has gone
What's up Torgny, we haven't seen you since March now
And it stank in the whole 8B's stairwell
Mom said isn't it lovely that it's spring
She can say what she wants but that was ours, what's up Torgny
