Koppen Med Den Skårede Hank [English translation]

Please hand me the cup with the chipped handle

And yesterday's Politiken1

It might not be very topical

But neither am I

Do you remember the days when we whistled on

Gas-blue faces from stress

Now, we may enjoy our morning coffee in peace

While the sun sets

There was so much I wanted to do

And far too much that I had to do

My time is over, over

But I'm still here

Sailing down the current of the flood

Perhaps it was all just a dream

If I wake up in a moment, I think

That I'll say

There was so much I wanted to do

And far too much that I had to do

My time is over, over

But I'm still here

Sailing down the current of the flood

(Perhaps it) Perhaps it was all just a dream

(Just a dream) If I wake up in a moment, I think

That I'll say

Please hand me the cup with the chipped handle

And yesterday's Politiken1

It might not be very topical

But neither am I

It might not be very topical

But neither am I
