Songtext zu 'Old Friends' von Ylvis

I saw you at the railway station
There had been a cancellation
You were smoking cigarettes alone
I walked up and said: Hello
I lost my wife two days ago
You shook my hand and said Francis was your name

And you had a hat, and I had a hat
Mmm, we both had hats
And my wife was dead, and your wife was dead
Shit happens, Francis said

Francis said: it’s 5 o clock- how about we find a rock
And throw it at some cars from the bridge?
I laughed and said: that sounds like fun
We walked into the setting sun
And francis said: I’m aiming at the kids

And he threw a rock, so I threw a rock
We both put some gravel in the sock
And he threw the sock, I said we should stop
He smiled at me and threw the rock in a sock

We snuck down to the local farm
And there we opened up the barn
To set the horses free and watch them run
The moon watch extra bright that night
The horses in the pale moonlight
Watch this, Francis said and pulled this gun

He shot a horse, so I shot a horse
Francis choked a chicken with his hands
We watching them die, we started to cry
I'm bored, Francis said, let’s steal a car

Oh margaret, oh margaret, don’t you worry bout me now
I’m doin just fine on my own
There are other things to life than your soft skin against mine
Francis is helping me move on
I’m moving on

Life’s a bitch, a wise man said
No matter what, you end up dead
And all that you can wish for is a friend
So pour another glass of wine
With Francis’ shoulder touching mine
I stay right here until the bitter end

And you have a hat, and I have a hat
Mmmmm we both have hats
And your wife is dead, and my wife is dead
Here’s to life, Francis said
