Translation of the song Ikke Min Statsminister artist Asger B

Ikke Min Statsminister

English translation

Not My Prime Minister

Det’ en svær tid, vi må stå sammen

These are tough times, we must be united

Det’ virkelig noget, Mette lægger vægt på

That's really something Mette is pushing for

Men det gælder åbenbart ikke drenge

But that apparently doesn't go for boys

Med en mørk hudfarve, hvis de står inde i S-toget

With dark skin if they're in the S-Train

Racistisk retorik, møgbeskidt

Racist rhetoric, it's a piss dirt

Måde hun fører politik på

Way she does her politics

Vent, er det det Mette eller er det Pia K?

Wait, is this Mette or is it Pia K?1

Man kan nærmest ikke se forskel, yo

You can hardly even tell the difference

Og det' ikke min Statsminister

And that's not my Prime Minister

Har ikk' noget til overs for skabsracister

I have no sympathy for closet racists

Det' da på Christiansborg, de sidder

It's clearly at Chriansborg they're at

De største snyltere og banditter, I ved det, jeg si'r

The biggest parasites and thugs, you know it, I'm saying

Ikk' min Statsminister

Not my Prime Minister

Manipulerende levebrødspolitiker

Manipulative bread-and-butter politicians

At det er spin, når hun snakker om at varetage

There's no doubt that it's spin when she talks about

Folkets interesser, ka' der ikke være tvivl om

Fight for the interest of the people

Og det' lige meget hvilken vinkel

And it doesn't matter what angle

Du vælger at se det fra, det' helt klart

You choose to look at it from, it's clear to see

At Mette diskriminere, når hun si'r, du ka'

That Mette discriminates when she says that you could

Blive tvunget til at flytte fra den bydel du fra

Be forced to move from the neighbourhood you're from

På baggrund af hvilken etnicitet du har

Based on your ethnicity

Og forleden ku’ man høre Mette afsløre

And here the other day, you could hear Mette reveal

Med en lang smøre, at hun går ind for

With a long speech that she supports

At voksne må skærer i drengebørn

That adults cut male children

Men det kommer nok ikk' bag på nogen, at hun løj

But it probably doesn't surprise anyone that she was lying

Da hun udnævnte sig selv til børnenes minister

When she claimed herself to be the children's minister1

Hva' med alle de børn og familier

What about all the children and families

Der flygter fra krig, som de blankt afviser?

Running away from war whom they're turning away without hesitation?

Fra de europæiske flygtninge lejre

From the European refugee camps

Til de danske asylfængsler

To the Danish refugee prisons

Er Mette med til at ødelægge vores medmennesker

Mette is taking part in breaking our fellow humans

Det' blandt andet derfor

That, among other things, is why

Jeg siger, ikk' min Statsminister

I'm saying not my Prime Minister

Har ikk' noget til overs for skabsracister

I have no sympathy for closet racists

Det' da på Christiansborg, de sidder

It's clearly at Chriansborg they're at

De største snyltere og banditter, I ved det, jeg si'r

The biggest parasites and thugs, you know it, I'm saying

Ikk' min Statsminister

Not my Prime Minister

Manipulerende levebrødspolitiker

Manipulative bread-and-butter politicians

Siger, hun vil varetage folkets interesser

Says she wants to fight for the interest of the people

Men det er nok nærmere grådige kapitalister

But it seems more like greedy capitalists

Under sidste valgkamp havde Mette travlt med

During the last election, Mette was busy

At forsikre os alle sammen om, at hun var

Reassuring us all that she would be

Den leder Danmark havde brug for

The leader Denmark needed

Til toner af de helt store klimaambitioner

On the topic of the very big climate ambitions

Fyrede hun op for de vante paroler

She fired off all the old slogans

Om at vi skulle være en af de der forgangsnationer

About who we'd be one of those pioneering nations

Klar til at gøre alt for at sikre fremtidens generationer

Ready to do anything to ensure the future generations

Men politikerer har svært ved at sige sandheden

But politicians struggle to tell the truth

Det bliver ikke til særligt meget klimahandling

Not a lot of climate actions are happening

Det’ bare flere gasrør og svinestalde

Just more gas pipes and pig stables

Gigantisk støtte til de rigeste landmænd

Enormous support to the richest farmers

Det er så grotesk at høre på Mette F

It's so grotesque listening to Mette F

Og hendes disrespekt, hun vil bare ha’ mere vækst

And her disrespect, she just wants more economic growth

Og lægge vores skæbne i hænderne på en fantasi

And put our fate in the hands of a fantasy

Om et eller andet teknologisk fix, hun er helt væk

About some technological fix, she's insane

Ikk' min Statsminister

Not my Prime Minister

Har ikk' noget til overs for skabsracister

I have no sympathy for closet racists

Det' da på Christiansborg, de sidder

It's clearly at Chriansborg they're at

De største snyltere og banditter, I ved det, jeg si'r

The biggest parasites and thugs, you know it, I'm saying

Ikk' min Statsminister

Not my Prime Minister

Manipulerende levebrødspolitiker

Manipulative bread-and-butter politicians

Siger, hun vil varetage folkets interesser

Says she wants to fight for the interest of the people

Men det er nok nærmere grådige kapitalister

But it seems more like greedy capitalists
