Lyrics
Jeg trængte til at snakke
Ikke tale bare snakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Så jeg vendte snuden hjem
Jeg stak tomlen ud
Blev taget op af den første bil
Med en jydekrog
Fyren bød mig på en smøg
Og jeg ku' bare ryge fra pakken
Indtil han så mit tøj
Og sagde, «hva' er det, der sker
Med farven på dine øjenlåg?»
Jeg svarede, «den er sort
Som prisen på dine smøger
Uden banderole på»
Så begyndte vi at snakke
Ikke tale, bare snakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Men han ku' se, jeg snød
At jeg havde klædt mig ud
Jeg var langt fra hurtig nok
Ved havelågen
Han sagd', «man ser det straks»
Det er måden, som du ryger på
Det måden, som du taler på
Det er tykkelsen
På din tegnebog
Så begyndte vi at snakke
Ikke tale bare snakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Vi kom forbi min folkeskole
Jeg viste ham min legeplads
Tog ham ind i min skammekrog
Mit fodboldmål
Men han kendte alt til mig
Han var min gamle klasselærer
Jeg ku' knap nok kende ham
Men pludselig ku' jeg huske
Hva' han skrev
I min karakterbog:
«Du kan nå langt, hvis du vil det
Men hva' er det, du vil nå?»
Så begyndte vi at snakke
Så begyndte vi at snakke
Ikke tale bare snakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Ja, snakke
Ikke tale bare snakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Som man gør det vest for Valby Bakke
Lyrics translation
I needed to talk
Don't talk just talk
As you do west of Valby Hill
As you do west of Valby Hill
So I turned my nose home
I stuck my thumb out
Was taken up by the first car
With a jute hook
The guy offered me a smoke
And I could just smoke from the package
Until he saw my clothes
And said, " what's happening
With the color of your eyelids?»
I replied, " It's black
Like the price of your cigarettes
No banderole on»
Then we started talking
Don't talk, just talk
As you do west of Valby Hill
As you do west of Valby Hill
But he could see I cheated
That I had dressed up
I was far from fast enough
At the garden gate
He said, ' you see it immediately»
It's the way you smoke
The way you talk
That's the thickness
On your wallet
Then we started talking
Don't talk just talk
As you do west of Valby Hill
As you do west of Valby Hill
We came by my elementary school
I showed him my playground
Took him into my corner of shame
My football goal
But he knew everything about me
He was my old class teacher
I barely knew him
But suddenly I could remember
What he wrote
In my report card:
"You can go a long way if you want
But what do you want to do?»
Then we started talking
Then we started talking
Don't talk just talk
As you do west of Valby Hill
As you do west of Valby Hill
Yeah, talk
Don't talk just talk
As you do west of Valby Hill
As you do west of Valby Hill
