Bli som far [English translation]

This is how it is, my dear little son

that if you want to be as good as your father,

take careful notice of where the wind is blowing from

and be on good terms with those who have the power

Then at long last you will reach the goals

that at long last dad reached too

And like dad when he felt sick,

your stomach shall be calmed with Novalucol

Man does not get anything given, my son

You have to pay for every step you take

And you grow away from the ideals

And trouserless you will walk with your bottom bare

But do like father, and everything will click

And then dad will never be sad

Because if you share the bosses' interests,

you inherit dad's house and his neurosis

Swallow your chagrin, forget unfaithfulness and betrayal

Never be sad, dear little son

You will find comfort at the nearest pharmacy

for humiliation, meanness and mockery

Then you will become just what dad became

Where dad stepped, you will step there as well

Where the wind is blowing, you will also drift

for the same winds that your dad drifted

Swallow your chagrin, take the spoon into your hand

when power treads on your tender toe

You live in a democratic country

where you can choose the way to be tread on

Then you will become just what dad became

Where dad stepped, you will step there as well

Where the wind is blowing, you will also drift

for the same winds that your dad drifted
