Waiting for Kirsten - Jens Lekman[00:00:00]

We were waiting for Kirsten me and Joel [00:00:16]

'Cause we found out the name of her hotel [00:00:20]

With the folköl and an evening paper [00:00:23]

In which she spelled out my name letter by letter [00:00:27]

Well I grew up outside this city [00:00:40]

Where the local Estrella chips factory[00:00:43]

Had paved the way to your grave and to your destiny [00:00:47]

So what can a suburban boy like me do[00:00:51]

When she mentions me[00:00:53]

Except compromise a portion of his dignity [00:00:59]

Another club another beer another hour --[00:01:03]

Squint at the clock up at the church tower [00:01:07]

"What she's doing here you think "[00:01:11]

"I heard she's filming with von Trier "[00:01:13]

"Hey Klara how's your night [00:01:15]

Did you know about Kirsten Have you seen her "[00:01:17]

She says:"Yeah she was here [00:01:20]

But she was turned away at the door "[00:01:22]

I know I know I can't believe no one told her before [00:01:27]

That in Gothenburg we don't have VIP lines [00:01:31]

In Gothenburg we don't make a fuss about who you are [00:01:35]

In Gothenburg we don't have VIP lines [00:01:40]

But then I bit my tongue [00:01:43]

And the taste of blood was so strong [00:01:45]

'Cause times are changing Kirsten:[00:01:52]

Göta Älv is slowly reversing;[00:01:56]

They turned a youth-center into a casino;[00:01:59]

They drew a swastika in your cappuccino [00:02:03]

And the VIP lines are not to the clubs[00:02:07]

But to healthcare apartments and jobs [00:02:11]

"Hey buddy can I borrow five grand [00:02:15]

'Cause my dad's in chemo [00:02:19]

And they wanna take him off his plan "[00:02:22]

I said in Gothenburg we don't have VIP lines[00:02:27]

I said in Gothenburg you're not worth less [00:02:31]

And you're not worth any more [00:02:34]

I said in Gothenburg we don't have VIP lines [00:02:35]

But then I bit my tongue [00:02:39]

And the taste of blood was so strong [00:02:41]

At the end of the night me and Joel[00:03:04]

Went back and sat outside her hotel[00:03:08]

And drank beer after beer 'til the sun came up [00:03:11]

And since she didn't show up [00:03:15]

Joel said I had to man up [00:03:17]

And write a note of affection [00:03:19]

And leave it in the reception [00:03:21]

And I wrote this confession[00:03:23]

With the lipstick from his girlfriend[00:03:25]

On the back of our receipt [00:03:27]

But the receptionist said I was drunk[00:03:32]

And asked me to leave[00:03:36]
