Ingalsin Laura [English translation]

So early you got fed up

You got disappointed in their speeches

Where everything was soon but not yet, yet, yet, never ever

You went to school with angry eyes

They said "That kid's messed up"

And "Behave better

If you're quiet and well-mannered, thorough

Everything's a lot easier

Otherwise you'll just regret this someday"

And you think

They never want me

They want some kind of Laura Ingalls

To kindly obey in her little apron

But one day I'll rise and laugh at the world

One day I'll do whatever I want

And they'll be sorry

Today you couldn't take it anymore

As everyone's gazes lingered on you a bit too long

Sometimes they yell after you "You're crazy, crazy, crazy is what you are"

And so you decided to leave before someone gets punched

You packed your makeup, necklaces and belts

And all the unfinished writing projects

And the Swedish teacher's Visa

That she had left to the classroom for the recess

With that you'll be sure to get to London

And you think

They never want me

They want some kind of Laura Ingalls

To bear it all and always forgive

But one day I'll rise and laugh at the world

One day I'll do whatever I want

And they'll be sorry

They never want me

They want some kind of Laura Ingalls

To bear it all and always forgive

But one day I'll rise and laugh at the world

One day I'll do whatever I want

And they'll be sorry
