Lost in translation #004: Gatans lag - Hata folk

Not really the most mature lyrics but one of the better Swedish Oi! anthems of later years. Since this band only sings in Swedish i am surprised anyone had had of them before, but here you go.

I've got an itch that I cant scratch
I can hardly breathe when I walk through my town
It's like a shitty fucking allergy
I want to strike you all down when you pass me by

I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!

I dont discriminate i hate everyone
My hatred is growing stronger, im turning anti-social.
I hate people on the bus, everyone deserves a beating
I hate fat fucking bastards and people who work out

I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!

This whole world is beautiful, our lakes and our forests.
The flowers and animals, the moon and our sun
But one day something went wrong, our creator he messed up
This animal walked on two legs, and went around slaughtering
 

I hate retired cunts all old folks smells like shit. 
If I ever get that old i will take my life
Me myself i am perfect, almost everything i do is good.
And i envy anyone who gets to hang be me

I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!
I hate you, I hate people!

  1. Gatans Lag are one of the reasons I started learning swedish. :) Great idea with the translations.

  2. Also, if you're taking requests, I'd like to know more about Stockholms Negrer - Död åt Alla. I didn't really understand the lyrics (didn't even bother that hard, to be frank) and I've stumbled upon some places that called them racist for the "Död åt alla blonda, präktiga jävla vikingar!" part? Illuminate me, will ya?

  3. Alonzo their singer might be a proper left/PC retard and all but Stockhoms neger and KSMB both mean to much to Swedish punk to be ignored. He is himself an immigrant to Sweden and made some proper racist lyrics against Swedes and the nation both in interviews and on records but most of it was done for shock-value and to piss of the rightwinged punks. Nowdays he is as much of an old man as any old skinheads from those days.
    "Död åt alla blonda, präktiga jävla vikingar!" basicly means "Death to all blond, posh fuckin vikings" but as i said i dont think racism was behind it just plain old shock-value like most other punklyrics.
    I basicly only translate what people want me to so i will put up Stockholms negrer next.
