To Know Your Mission - Jens Lekman [00:00:00]
A Mormon missionary walks through voseling[00:00:00]
Through a clear-as-crystal Gothenburg morning[00:00:07]
Removing his suit jacket loosening his tie[00:00:15]
Wiping the sweat from his neck and the sleep from his eyes[00:00:23]
It's 1997 the last morning of August[00:00:30]
At the corner of 7-Eleven he hears the broadcast[00:00:37]
Another saint is lost Lady Di's returned to stardust[00:00:44]
He listens to the tragic news followed by the Top 10 tunes[00:00:51]
Will Smith Puff Daddy Gala Chumbawamba[00:01:11]
On the other side of the street he passes Café Java[00:01:18]
Where no listens to that crap[00:01:25]
Oh coffee and hair dyed raven black[00:01:29]
All so sure of everything except one question[00:01:32]
What's our mission[00:01:38]
What are we here for[00:01:41]
Who are we serving[00:01:45]
What can we do[00:01:48]
What's our mission[00:01:52]
What are we here for[00:01:55]
Who are we serving[00:01:58]
What can we do[00:02:02]
He bumps into a teenage boy leaning against the fence[00:02:06]
Who takes his headphones off and introduces himself as Jens[00:02:13]
Riffling through the Book of Mormon says[00:02:20]
it's way too early in the morning[00:02:23]
Instead of talking about religion[00:02:27]
Can we just talk about how it feels[00:02:30]
To know your mission[00:02:33]
To know what you're here for[00:02:36]
To know who you're serving[00:02:40]
To know what to do[00:02:43]
To know your mission[00:02:46]
To know what you're here for[00:02:50]
To know who you're serving[00:02:53]
To know what to do[00:02:57]
To have a dream[00:03:08]
A GPS in your heart[00:03:11]
A path to follow[00:03:16]
Through the dark[00:03:20]
Well Jens says I write songs sometimes[00:03:24]
But they're kinda bad[00:03:29]
So if that doesn't work out[00:03:33]
I want to be a social worker just like my dad[00:03:36]
I just want to listen to people's stories[00:03:41]
Hear what they have to say[00:03:46]
My friends say Just be a shrink then[00:03:49]
But I don't know I don't think I'll have the grades[00:03:53]
But in a world of mouths[00:03:58]
I want to be an ear[00:04:02]
If there's a purpose to all this[00:04:06]
Then that's why God put me here[00:04:11]
I know what I'm here for[00:04:16]
I know who I'm serving[00:04:19]
I'm serving you[00:04:23]
I'm serving you[00:04:37]
