Lars Lilholt Band — Singapore Annie song lyrics and translation
The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Singapore Annie" by Lars Lilholt Band.
Lyrics
I Georgetown Penang hvor Burma Lane fører
Mod Batu Faringi lå Buddha og sov
En kronraget munk solgte varsler og røgelse
Syd for Langkhawi
I Georgetown Penang
Og jeg lod mig spå, spå for en dollar
En spådom om kaos der brændte sig fast
Og Buddha han smilede bare i søvne
Alt har sin årsag
I Georgetown Penang
Og Singapore Annie
Tog kineseren Joey
Tilbage til Cathey hotel
For som hun sagde:
«vi har jo været der selv»
Ingen er ens og tretusind verdener
Er i hvert eneste livsøjeblik
Alle guder og djævle bor inden i dig
Buddha han sover
I Georgetown Penang
Og Singapore Annie…
Lyrics translation
In Georgetown Penang where Burma Lane leads
Against Batu Faringi lay Buddha and slept
A crowned Monk sold omens and incense
South of Langkhawi
Georgetown Penang
And I made fortune-telling, fortune-telling for a dollar
A divination of chaos that burned itself down
And Buddha he just smiled in his sleep
Everything has its cause
Georgetown Penang
And Singapore Annie
Did the Chinese take Joey
Back to Cathey hotel
Because like she said:
"we've been there ourselves»
No one is the same and three thousand worlds
Is at every moment of life
All gods and Devils live within you
Buddha he's asleep
Georgetown Penang
And Singapore Annie…
