They want more than a million bucks on the bank


Everyone votes left but still hate the taxes


Nobody wants to decide but everyone wants the power


Some people live in the city but they call it the hood


I am the same but I take my opportunities


No one is allowed in “What, no!” I know the bouncer


Nothing is too late but I try to be brave


I only drink vodka straight, no milk in my coffee


My friend is lost, he snorted p a year salary


Now there are black cars outside where he lives


Everyone are wearing bicycle pants on festivals


Everyone is chasing followers but who is leading them?


Am I better myself? I go to fast behind the wheel


I have soon kissed every girl in Stockholm who is beautiful


I can barely go out, I have to look behind my shoulder


The city wakes up before I go to sleep


I am a child of my time, should I break free?


And was second hand contracts my only alternative


I lived up at someone, almost like a collective


And my neighbours from Italy are always drinking wine


My feet are on the ground, I can feel the hard surface


I regret not drinking every second water between my drinks yesterday


But it does not matter because it is raining on the south side, I can hear my neighbours play the game show Primetime


A friend of mine says he knows what love is, but he subscribed to chlamydia-letters


but he goes out every Wednesday and wakes up alone every Thursday


No one really knows anyone here, but still is everyone your best friend


Until they throw you to the vultures, just to stab you in the back


Everyone wants to be CEO, nobody wants a child, everone writes son of a whore in their CV


Everyone wants to be real but the boys keep stepping at the side of the road (meaning - making mistakes


“Someone” bought sex and cried about it on television


I am a child of my time, full of stupidity


Maybe I will drop out of school or take my life


I might travel somewhere to clean my soul, and I don’t care about the thing you call carbon dioxide


I search sometimes, I get touched sometimes


I should move somewhere nobody knows my name


It does not matter because it is raining on the west side, it will always be the best life.


No one want to go up


No one wants to get drunk but not hungover


Everyone wants to live big but not in Bagis


Everyone wants to be a star but no one wants to be famous


No one wants to live here but no one wants to die


No one wants to go in if they have to stand in line


No one wants to work but every want the salary of a bank director


They goes to the same places, every weekend, it is the same parties. They go home with the same people but call someone else afterwards


And their job is going on paid vacations, with the same people they talk shit about in bathrooms


Let me explain something, you have such good ideals, when everyone is watching are you phenomenal


You treat your friend from the hood as a accessory but sing the n-word in songs on private parties


They like all different kinds of drugs


They have adhd but they call it a superpower. They speak about it and suddenly publishes a book


It mus be hard to fight over who is the most relevant


Everyone stabs/cuts down people on their left and right


So respect to everyone who are studying


No one want to save the world because the profit is too low, so they capitalise on their daughters and sons


I am a child of my time, I take a lone


I buy expensive clothes but mortgage my car


I might betray a friend just to attend an event


Braid my hair and not see the problem with it


My feet are on the ground, I can feel the hard surface


I do not want a child but still don´t use a condom


So in collaboration with everyone you know, you should keep track on your friends


No one wants to go up, but working is not optional


A cod (sex buyer) is explaining himself on live television


The boys do gang signs even tho they live in Bromma


This one is for Sweden, welcome to Stockholm, here we dance to music degrading women


They cancel their mom if it gives them traffic (views)


They talk to the police but pretend to be gangster


I am ashamed of who I am, I am a child of our time
