Lyrics

Så kom du hit Messias, på tynne ustø bein
Enstemmig steig ropet «på toppen helt alein»
Posøran bable om geniets store kraft
I sin verden fylt av meningsløse taktfaste klapp
Mens du smile av det hele, leke rottefanger, beile
Du hånflire av det hele, leke rottefanger, beile
Ref
På tusen års vandring
Gjennom ørken, over hav
Alle svar dæm sei du gir dæm ligg der død I vind
Ingen hjerta røres hos de sanseløse sinn
Dæm sole sæ I glansen, har ingenting forstått
Hjertan dæm e lukka, ja faktisk stengt for godt
Mens du smile av det hele, leke rottefanger, beile
Du hånflire av det hele, leke rottefanger, beile
Du møte tomme blikk med dødens grin
Som du alltid har gjort
Du spytte mot dæm gang på gang: sjå helvetets port
Smerten I fra Auschwitz og Pogromen kjæm du med
Og man vinke vilt begeistra mens du slår blikket ned
Og smile av det hele, leke rottefanger, beile
Du hånflire av det hele, leke rottefanger, beile

Lyrics translation

So you came here Messiah, on thin unsteady legs
Unanimously the cry " at the top absolutely alein»
Posoran rant about the great power of genius
In his world filled with senseless tactful claps
While you smile at it all, play rat-catcher, woo
You hand flire off it all, play rat-catcher, woo
Ref
On a thousand years of hiking
Through desert, over seas
All answers dæm sei you give dæm lies there dead in wind
No hearts are touched in the senseless minds
Dæm sole sæ in the gloss, nothing has understood
Hjertan dæm e closed, yes actually closed for good
While you smile at it all, play rat-catcher, woo
You hand flire off it all, play rat-catcher, woo
You meet blank glances with the grin of death
As you have always done
You spit towards dæm time and time again: see the gate of hell
The pain in from Auschwitz and the pogrom caress you with
And one waving wildly excited while turning his gaze down
And smile at it all, play rat-catcher, woo
You hand flire off it all, play rat-catcher, woo
