Adams Sang (feat. Myra)

Eg hørte den gamle gjekk i hagen
Og gjemte meg bak en busk
Det var solskinn og midt på dagen
Og eg sko tas i fusk
Han ropte: kor e du, kom fram fort!
Eg stakk håvet fram og sa: her!
Han spurte strengt: ka har du gjort?
Eg sa: spist epler og litt bær

Han visste altså ikkje kor me var
Ka var det for en allvitande far?
Han sa: du har klær på deg, en kommentar?
Kroppen te Eva gjor meg plutselig gal
Me hadde nettopp gjort noe hinsides gøy
Dette burde han som visste alt ha visst
E va blid og Eva ikkje møy
Nå syns eg det heila va litt trist

Me hadde retten te å velga fritt
Og det va det me nå gjorde
Me hadde en voldsom appetitt
Og konsekvensene blei store
Me måtte ta ansvar for egne liv
Me måtte klar oss aleina
Ta egne valg og få egne perspektiv
På koss me sko leva og ka me sko meina

Me visste jo det vanka reprimande
Me hadde spist av den forbudne frukt
Me var nå en opprørsk bande
Nå venta skjennepreken og tukt
Nå visste me forskjell på galt og rett
Den viten va det frukten som ga oss
I tillegg ble me yre rett og slett
Sko me la detta bare gli ifra oss?

Og det gjekk som me hadde forventa
Me blei kasta bryskt på dør
Det va ingen nåde å henta
Ingenting blei som før
E va glad for at eg hadde Eva
Me sko bygga et liv i lag
Me sko slita, jobba og streva
Og vær kverandre te behag

Me hadde retten te å velga fritt
Og det va det me nå gjorde
Me hadde en voldsom appetitt
Og konsekvensene blei store
Me måtte ta ansvar for egne liv
Me måtte klar oss aleina
Ta egne valg og få egne perspektiv
På koss me sko leva og ka me sko meina

I sidesynet idet me dro fra Eden
Såg eg - uten fnugg av tvil
At midt i skuffelsen og vreden
Bød den gamle på et aldri så lite smil

Me hadde retten te å velga fritt
Og det va det me nå gjorde
Me hadde en voldsom appetitt
Og konsekvensene blei store
Me fekk nye perspektiv
Og måtte klar oss aleina
Det e vel det som kan kallas et liv
Vil nå eg meina

Adam's Song (feat. Myra)

I heard the old man walking in the garden
And I hid behind a bush
It was mid-day and the sun was shining
And I should be caught red-handed
He shouted: where are you, come out at once!
I poked my head out and said: here!
He asked sternly: what have you done?
I said: eaten apples and some berries

He didn't know where we were
What kind of an all-knowing father was that?
He said: you have your clothes on, what do you say to that?
Eve's body suddenly drove me crazy
We had just done something incredibly fun
He who knew everything should have known that
I was happy and Eve was no longer a virgin
Now I think it was all a bit sad

We had the right to choose freely
And that's what we did
We had a big appetite
And the consequences were huge
We had to take responsibility for our own lives
We had to manage on our own
Make our own choices and get our own perspectives
On how we should live and what we should think

We knew that a reprimand was coming
We had eaten from the forbidden fruit
We were now a rebellious gang
Now we could expect a sermon and punishment
Now we knew the difference between wrong and right
It was the fruit that gave us that knowledge
On top of that we also became horny
Should we just let that pass us by?

And it happened as we had expected
We were unceremoniously thrown out
There was no mercy to be had
Nothing was as it had been
I was glad that I had Eve
We would build a life together
We would toil, work and strive
And be there for each other

We had the right to choose freely
And that's what we did
We had a big appetite
And the consequences were huge
We had to take responsibility for our own lives
We had to manage on our own
Make our own choices and get our own perspectives
On how we should live and what we should think

In my peripheral vision as we left Eden
I saw - without a shadow of a doubt
That in the midst of the disappointment and anger
The old man permitted himself a little smile

We had the right to choose freely
And that's what we did
We had a big appetite
And the consequences were huge
We got new perspectives
And had to manage on our own
That's what is called a life
Or at least that's what I think
