To Know Your Mission

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]
