Och jorden den är rund...

Snippet

Lyrics
Du säger att du har allt det du vill ha
En kista full av guld
Men du har inte mer!
Nej du har inte mer!
Du säger att du vet allt det du vill veta

Jorden den är rund!
Men du vet inte mer!
Nej du vet inte mer!

Du snackar om problemen
men jag hänger inte med
Du får allt du pekar på
och ännu mer
Ännu mer
Med dina guldberlocker
och fester i det blå
verkar faktiskt dina bekymmer
ganska små så hör på
Du säger vi ska segla
dom sju haven
Men båten går på grund
så räkna inte med mej,
räkna inte med mej!

...And Your Bird Can Sing (original lyrics)
You tell me that you've got everything you want
And your bird can sing
But you don't get me, you don't get me

You say you've seen seven wonders and your bird is green
But you can't see me, you can't see me

When your prized possessions start to weigh you down
Look in my direction, I'll be round, I'll be round

When your bird is broken will it bring you down
You may be awoken, I'll be round, I'll be round

You tell me that you've heard every sound there is
And your bird can swing
But you can't hear me, you can't hear me
