Translation of the song lyrics Señor Torpedo - Kaizers Orchestra

Señor Torpedo (original)

Eg kan sei det igjen men eg har sagt det før
Familiebedriften dør
Sjå på meg den som tør
Å sette seg i stolen
Og alle kjenner Sonny sitt navn
Og alle sammen føler hans savn
Han er så Helgen som en Helgen kan bli
Det fins ingen ny Sonny
Og rekk opp hånda hvis du kjenner nogen
En som eg kan ha inni armkroken
En som er komfortalbel i sjefsstolen
En som alltid har ei hånd på pistolen
Det var for han eg måtte sy sju sting
Det var for han eg måtte bli halvt blind
Og du var alltid velkommen inn
Måtte eg gått i døden for han, ville eg gått rett inn
For han er min far
Herren gir og Herren tar
Så lenge du er lojal
Er du velkommen i vår hage
Det fins ingen vei tilbake
Ett feil ord, ett sjeivt skritt så er dine dager talte
La meg presentere Señor Torpedo
Av han får du meir enn du ber om
Han legger ingenting i mellom
Guds gave til oss er Señor Torpedo
Og snart kjenner alle hans navn
Når han forsvinner kjenner alle hans savn
Han blir så Helgen som en Helgen kan bli
Men han blir ingen ny Sonny

Señor Torpedo (translation)

I can say it again but I've said it before
The family business dies
Look at me who dares
To sit in the chair
And everyone knows Sonny's name
And everyone feels his need
He is as Holy as a Saint can be
There is no new Sonny
And raise your hand if you know anyone
One that I can have inside the arm hook
One that is comfortable in the executive chair
One who always has a hand on the gun
It was for him I had to sew seven stitches
It was for him that I had to go half blind
And you were always welcome
If I were to die for him, I would go straight in
Because he's my father
The Lord gives and the Lord takes
As long as you are loyal
You are welcome in our garden
There is no going back
One wrong word, one wrong step and your days are numbered
Let me introduce Señor Torpedo
You get more from him than you ask for
He puts nothing in between
God's gift to us is the Señor Torpedo
And soon everyone knows his name
When he disappears, everyone knows his longing
He becomes as Holy as a Saint can be
But he will not be a new Sonny
