Jag skiter by Magnus Uggla English translation “I Don’t Give a Shit”

Jerry, think about your future

Jerry, think about how you want to turn out

Jerry, think about your reputation

Jerry, think about your life

Jerry, you’re doing well in school, right?

Jerry, you’re almost grown up

Jerry, listen to your mother

If you’re gonna be like your brother

And I don’t give a shit about the teacher and I don’t give a shit about the principal

And I don’t give a shit about whatever they put in my head

And I don’t give a shit about physics and I don’t give a shit about mathematics

I don’t give a shit about any other damn technology

And I don’t give a shit about my mother and I don’t give a shit about my father

They say I don’t give a shit about anything, but I don’t give a shit about that

So I’m getting out of here

You should play it more roughly

No, it’s supposed to be like this

You should play it more roughly

No, it should be beautiful

Everybody just talks

About how they want me to be

They’re all gay, anyway

I’m thinking of leaving

And I don’t give a shit about the politics and I don’t give a shit about the criticism

And I don’t give a shit about the rotten stench of commercialism

And I don’t give a shit about old men and I don’t give a shit about old hags

As a rock artist I’ll always remain broke either way

Yes, I don’t give a shit about the adult world

Because I’m not gonna become some human machine

So I’m thinking of leaving

Leaving this city

Leaving this fucking city

Leaving this city

Balladen om 70-talets största rockband by Magnus Uggla English translation “The Ballad of the Greatest Rock Band of the ‘70s”

At Kåren 1971, my friend brought me one day

We were going to check out a cool band, which we were told was going to be really good

And a few minutes after the band had started

Yes, the whole place was swinging, and everyone sang along to their song

Oh, what an experience, what a wonderful experience

Oh, what an experience, what a god damned experience!

What an experience

What a wonderful experience

And after half the concert, the music quieted down

And a singer wearing dark sunglasses sat down at the piano

It was the best I had ever heard, when the voice cut through the dark

Yes, my entire body was shaking, I can’t tell you what it was

I’ll try to put it into words, but I think it must be witnessed

But that kind of music doesn’t exist today, and it probably never will again

Oh, what an experience, what a wonderful experience

Oh, what an experience, what a god damned experience!

What an experience

What a wonderful experience

When I left that place, there was a voice in my heart that said

That singer with the big frizzy hair might as well be me

And now when I stand on stage, I remember every time

When the singer with the broken voice sang: “When my mind’s gone”

Oh, what an experience, what a wonderful experience

Oh, what an experience, what a god damned experience!

Oh, what an experience, what a wonderful experience

Oh, what an experience, what a god damned experience!

What an experience

What a wonderful experience

#last one for today. jk theres one more #Fun fact! this song is about a Mott the Hoople concert Uggla went to #magnus uggla #va ska man ta livet av sig för när man ändå inte får höra snacket efteråt #translated #lyric translation #1977

Varning på stan by Magnus Uggla English translation “Watch Out in Town”

Watch out in town because now the ones who have kept it up all day are coming

We’re gonna drink and fight and pick up babes of course, it’s the fun in town

And we’re drunk as fuck, wow wow wow

And we walk into a bar and I go up to a chick and say

“Do you want to be with me?”

But she turns away

So I hurry quickly to pick up another girl

“I love you, do you want to be with me?”

And I said, “come, come, come, let’s go to my place

“We’ll talk and hug and drink tea at my place”

She came back home with me

And then thank you and goodbye, next girl!

Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go into town

And in town, we give it our all and we don’t stop for anything

For us, picking up babes has become a sport

And I wake up in the morning and the corpse is still there, she’s lying next to me

So I tell the thing about squash, she falls for it of course

And then I’m rid of the bird next to me

Then it’s just my headache left

And then I ping Jerry and hey what’s up

And how did it go last night?

Yeah I got a chick and she was pretty as hell, she was a photographer’s model

How did you get her to your place? It was easy

And I said, “come, come, come, let’s go to my place

“We’ll talk and hug and drink tea at my place”

She came back home with me

And then thank you and goodbye

I’m never gonna get married!

Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go into town

And in town, we give it our all and we don’t stop for anything

For us, picking up babes has become a sport

Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go into town

And in town, we give it our all and we don’t stop for anything

For us, picking up babes has become a sport
