Lyrics
På en bænk i Christiania sidder Karl og Ann-Cathrin´
Den er helt gal med humøret, deres drøm er en ruin
De ska´ flytte inden længe ud a´ vagten, ud igen
Til en fremtid tem´lig håbløs, for hvor fa´en ska´ de ta´ hen?
Sat på gaden, hvem bekymrer sig om Karl og Ann-Cathrin‚
Karl og Ann-Cathrin´ Karl og Ann-Cathrin´
Ud a´ STADEN hvor de netop havde fundet melodi´
Porten i for Karl og Ann-Cathrin´
Da de mødtes var de nede, hver for sig og han især
Men i STADEN fandt de sammen, det var tyd´ligt for enhver
De blev glade for hinanden, og for livet ikke mindst
End´lig var der noget at slås for med en chance for gevinst
Sat på gaden …
Så´ det ud, kære venner, klar jer selv‚ og find et job
Den besked er svær at snuppe, når man just er kommet op
Og de stirrer blot på manden, han er ikke særlig stor
Men de tænker inderst inde: Mon han får det sidste ord?
Sat på gaden …
Lyrics translation
On a bench in Christiania sits Karl and Ann-Cathrin
It's completely mad with the mood, your dream is a ruin
They have to move out of the guard before long, out again
To a future very hopeless, for Where Are they going?
Evicted, who cares about Karl and Ann-Cathrin'
Karl and Ann-Cathrin Karl and Ann-Cathrin
Out a city where they had just found melody
The gate in for Karl and Ann-Cathrin
When they met they were down, separately and he in particular
But in the city they got together, it was clear to everyone
They became happy for each other, and for life not least
Finally there was something to fight for with a chance of gain
Evicted …
So it looks, dear friends, clear yourselves ' and find a job
That message is hard to snatch when you've just come up
And they just stare at the man, he's not very big
But deep down they think: will he have the last word?
Evicted …
