Mann for Min Hatt(original) |
| På banen ut mot Ammerud |
| Kom jeg I snakk med en gammel dame på 107 |
| Så jeg prata om været, hvordan det alltid snør |
| Mer I Groruddalen enn I byen, Hun mente hør |
| Du er ikke hvor du er fra, du er det du gjør |
| Det hørtes temlig ut som noe jeg har skrevet sjøl |
| Jeg så forvirra ut hun så på meg og sa Min sønn |
| Ingenting verdt å vinne lar seg vinnes av seg sjøl |
| Jeg er ikke en av de som mener alt var bedre før |
| I min levetid har levetiden nemlig økt |
| En del har bedre liv, mere tid og flere tør |
| Å våge vinne verden, flere bærer mindre bør |
| Du må huske jeg ble født her uten stemmerett |
| Nå har jeg månedskort, jeg smilte, sa ''du har nok rett'' |
| Men samtidig er sannelig samtiden van-vittig |
| Framskrittet styres alltid fram av gal business |
| Det er vanskelig å ikke synes alt er galskap |
| Det virker som om fornuften sakte avtar, hun sa |
| Ung må verden ennå være, det er klart at |
| Tålmodighet må ikke blandes ut med latskap |
| Dårlige ting kommer fort, bra ting kommer sakte |
| Og det er alltid tungt å bære vann I motbakke |
| Se ditt liv I tidens lys, historiens lange rekke |
| It’s like taking a sick day, then walk passed your boss |
| I hope you learn something in this ride, crash your course |
| Blast your thoughts, it’s like I passed the torch |
| But I gotta go, man, and I should have been stopped, I’m out |
| Vær mann for din hatt |
| Så Jeg er mann for min hatt, navnet er Martin, jeg er minstemann fra |
| Gatas Parlament ikke parlamentet bak Akersgata |
| Tar betalt for spadetak, apekatter vi må ha mat as |
| Sprader stadig fram og prøver prakke på deg Gatasplata |

| (translation) |
| On the track out towards Ammerud |
| Did I talk to an old lady of 107 |
| So I talk about the weather, how it's always snowing |
| More In Groruddalen than In the city, She meant hear |
| You are not where you are from, you are what you do |
| It sounded pretty much like something I wrote myself |
| I looked confused she looked at me and said My son |
| Nothing worth winning can be won by itself |
| I'm not one of those people who think everything was better before |
| Namely, in my lifetime, the lifespan has increased |
| Some have better lives, more time and more dare |
| Dare to win the world, more carries less should |
| You must remember I was born here without the right to vote |
| Now I have a monthly card, I smiled, said ''you're probably right'' |
| But at the same time, indeed, the present is insane |
| Progress is always driven by mad business |
| It's hard not to think it's all crazy |
| It seems like sanity is slowly waning, she said |
| Young must the world still be, it is clear that |
| Patience must not be confused with laziness |
| Bad things come fast, good things come slowly |
| And it is always heavy to carry water uphill |
| See your life in the light of time, the long line of history |
| It's like taking a sick day, then walking past your boss |
| I hope you learn something in this ride, crash your course |
| Blast your thoughts, it's like I passed the torch |
| But I gotta go, man, and I should have been stopped, I'm out |
| Be a man for your hat |
| So I'm the man for my hat, the name is Martin, I'm the smallest man from |
| Street Parliament, not the parliament behind Akersgata |
| Paying for sod roofs, monkeys we must have food as |
| Constantly spreading forward and trying to show off the Gatasplata |
