Resnais, Beefheart & Aalto [English translation]

We saw each other last year at Marienbad (1)

Doesn't work as a pick up line in a bar

I've tried

Beefheart is dead (2)

I feel like I've won

I would've come running if you would've just called

I thought I don't even need anything else

Except you and a couple of records of Hüsker Dü

But I'm as living as the Buckleys were (3)

My heartbeats so pulseless

Let's do like Bruce in the first song of Born to Run (4)

When he says let the wind just blow

It's by the way probably the best song ever

Or then it's the one where he says there's no fire without a spark (5)

Born to run like Pate (6)

But girl at best we are together like Ghost and Rae (7)

Let's form a band

You can be the brains and the skills and I can be drunk

Because I know how to do that

As a rapper I can be generic and limited

But in the end it doesn't matter much

These kind of things you rarely get to say

But honesty is the most genuine thing that I can offer

We saw each other last year at Marienbad

It works as a pick up line in a bar

I've tried

Beefeater has been drunk (8)

I feel like I've won

I would've come running if you would've just called

Do you remember we once talked about moving to Göteborg

Just for no reason

And when we went to visit all we did was fight

We didn't see any Swedish architecture

I told Rudy I've lately listened mostly to the Wife cassette (9)

And saw how he got uncomfortable

Guess he has a hard time seeing himself in that situation anymore

But you don't think about that stuff when you're doing it

Occasionally I wonder how you are now without me

Life is all just one struggle

Juice once said so (10)

A bottle of cheap red wine and post-punk

We got wet with those

Chianti was the favorite wine of Alvar Aalto (11)

I don't know anything about wines

Now I guess there's time to learn

So that's that

If you wanna meet let's meet in Cella (12)
