Valby Bakke [English translation]

I needed to speak, not talk speak,

like you do it west for Valby Bakke,

like you do it west for Valby Bakke

So I went towards my home,

put out my thumb,

got picked up by the first car with a Jutland hook,

the guy offered a cigaret,

and I couldn't just smoke from the pack,

until he saw my clothes,

and then he said: What is happening to the color on your eyelid,

I answerede: It is black, like the price of your cigarets

without a stamp on,

Then we started speaking,

not talking, just speaking.

Like you do west for Valby Bakke,

Like you do west for Valby Bakke,

But he saw I was cheating,

that I had dressed up,

I wasn't fast enough,

he said you immediately notice it,

it's the way you smoke,

the way you talk,

it's the thickness of your wallet

Then we started speaking,

not talking, just speaking.

Like you do west for Valby Bakke,

Like you do west for Valby Bakke,

We drove past my school,

I showed him my playground,

took him into my detention room, my soccer goal,

but he knew everything about me,

he was my old teacher,

I could barely remember him,

but suddenly did I remember what he wrote in my gradebook,

"You can get far, if you want to,

but what do you want to reach?"

Then we started speaking...

Then we started speaking,

not talking, just speaking.

Like you do west for Valby Bakke,

Like you do west for Valby Bakke,

Yeah,then we started speaking,

not talking, just speaking.

Like you do west for Valby Bakke,

Like you do west for Valby Bakke,
