Translation of the song Pulverkaffe artist Katinka

Danish

Pulverkaffe

English translation

Instant Coffee

[Vers 1]

[Verse 1]

Vi' stadig i udvikling

We're stil developing

Vi' ikke færdigbagt

We're not fully baked

Det mener jeg

I feel that way

For det' noget du har fortalt mig

Because it's something you've said

Dine definitioner

Your definitions

Er en ordbog i sig selv

Are a dictionary in itself

Du har principper til du forelsker dig

You've got principles until you fall in love

Og så slipper du dem igen

And then you let them go again

[Omkvæd]

[Chorus]

Lunkent vand og lunkne problemer

Luke water and luke problems

Selv vores himmel er gråmeleret

Even out sky is mixed with grey

Pulverkaffen i en kop fra Ikea

The instant coffee in a cup from Ikea

Smagen er okay, men vi er mere

The taste is okay, but we are more

[Vers 2]

[Verse 2]

Vi bli'r heltene i romanen

We become the heroes of the novel

Vi har læst forud for vores tid

That we read ahead of our time

Det' de andre der ikk' forstår det hele

It's the others that don't understand it all

Det var ikk' skrevet ned

It was not written down

Du er min hverdagsredningsplanke

You are my everyday lifeline

Du er følelser uden papir

You are emotions without paper

Og når de andre ta'r hjem og sover

And when the others go home to sleep,

Så ved jeg at vi bli'r

I know that we will stay

[Omkvæd]

[Chorus]

Lunkent vand og lunkne problemer

Luke water and luke problems

Selv vores himmel er gråmeleret

Even our sky is mixed with grey

Gammelt brød og ristede idéer

Old bread and toasted ideas

Smagen er okay, men vi er mere

The taste is okay, but we are more

[Instrumental pause]

[Instrumental break]

[Omkvæd]

[Chorus]

Lunkent vand og lunkne problemer

Luke water and luke problems

Selv vores himmel er gråmeleret

Even our sky is mixed with grey

Pulverkaffen i en kop fra Ikea

The Instant coffee in a cup from Ikea

Smagen er okay, men vi er mere

The taste is okay, but we are more

[Outro]

[Outro]

Vi er mere

We are more
