Lyrics

Uh-uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh-uh
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
For længe siden
Lige så længe som nu
Lå der et kloster
Det ligger der endnu
Søstre der var, ja, hele ti
Sad godt gemt bag lås og slå
Syslede med hver sit ekslemplar
Af det de kalder den hellige bog
Marianne skriver i Bibelen
Så mange mystiske ord, som hun ikke forstår
Millioner forsvinder i vrimlen
Falder op, falder ned, falder væk og forgår
Men de ord, som hun modtog fra himmelen
De står skevet med blæk, og for evigt de består
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Det var i de mørke tider
Når landsknægtene fik fri
Fór de forbi med bål og brænd
Og voldtog dem alle ti
Bortset fra Marianne
Hun gemte sig under sin seng
Og når de så var stukket af
Begyndte hun forfra igen
Marianne skriver i Bibelen
Så mange mystiske ord, som hun ikke forstår
Millioner forsvinder i vrimlen
Falder op, falder ned, falder væk og forgår
Men de ord, som hun modtog fra himmelen
De står skevet med blæk, og for evigt de består
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na

A long time ago
As long as now
Was there a monastery
It's still there
Sisters there were, yes, the whole ten
Sat well hidden behind lock and key
Each Syslede with his ex-copy
Of what they call the holy book
Marianne writes in the Bible
So many mysterious words that she does not understand
Millions disappear in the swarm
Falls up, falls down, falls away and perishes
But the words that she received from heaven
They are written in ink, and forever they pass
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
It was in those dark times
When the land snipers got off
Did they pass by with fire and burn
And raped them all ten
Except Marianne
She hid under her bed
And when they'd run away
Did she start over again
Marianne writes in the Bible
So many mysterious words that she does not understand
Millions disappear in the swarm
Falls up, falls down, falls away and perishes
But the words that she received from heaven
They are written in ink, and forever they pass
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
Na, na-na-na-na, na, na-na-na
