Shu-bi-dua Carmen song lyrics
Shu-bi-dua Carmen translation
På en tobaksfabrik meget langt herfra
At a tobacco factory, very far from here
Stod en pige og rulled' en flot cigar
Stood a girl and rolled a fine cigar
Hun var brun og stærk og med en indre glød
She was brown and strong, with an inner glow
Hun var enhver mands lyst og hans sikre død
She was every man's desire and his sure death
Men som en valmues blomst trækker bierne til
But like a poppy flower draws the bees to itself
Trak hun mændene ind i det ældgamle spil
She drew the men into the ancient game
Og den første der røg, han blev dolket ihjel
And the first that came - he was beaten to death
Var en kollega som troede han kunne få hende helt for sig selv
Was a colleague who thought he could have her for himself
Carmen, hun stjæler dine sanser
Carmen, she steals your senses
Carmen, ta'r dig mens I danser vildt i varmen
Carmen, wins you over as you dance wildly with her in the heat
Carmen, hun bor i alle piger
Carmen, she lives in every girl
Carmen, de lyver når de siger de ikke kender
Carmen, they lie when they say they don't know
Carmen
Carmen
I et hul af et spjæld sidder Carmen og ser
In a crappy cell sits Carmen and watches
På sin vogter, en ung politiofficer
Her guard, a yound police officer
Hans fornuft er en by der er blevet forladt
His sense of reason is a city that has been abandoned
Og han gi'r hende fri for en eneste nat
And he lets her out for one night
Han sætter hus og hjem og karriere på spil
He is risking his house and home and career
Han er på vej til hende og hun ved hvad han vil
He is on his way to her and she knows what he wants
Hele kroppen dunker og hans mund er tør
His entire body is dunking and his mouth is dry
Og gennem tågerne ser han hun åbner døren for ham
And through the fog he sees her open the door for him
Carmen, hun stjæler dine sanser
Carmen, she steals your senses
Carmen, ta'r dig mens I danser vildt i varmen
Carmen, wins you over as you dance wildly with her in the heat
Carmen, hun bor i alle piger
Carmen, she lives in every girl
Carmen, de lyver når de siger de ikke kender
Carmen, they lie when they say they don't know
Carmen
Carmen
Carmen, hun stjæler dine sanser
Carmen, she steals your senses
Carmen, hun ta'r dig mens I danser vildt i varmen
Carmen, wins you over as you dance wildly with her in the heat
Carmen
