Tapetorkestern

Idag fuskar jag lite med ämnena och kör inte exakt efter instruktionerna, men här är i alla fall Dojjans tredje ämne.

Det är en sorglig powerballad med Meat Loaf. Den handlar om hur pinsamt Dojjan tycker det är att ha en bok med en uppseendeväckande titel i sin bokhylla och hur hon måste gömma den varje gång hon får besök (boken, inte bokhyllan). Vilket hon brukar glömma.

Ta fram näsdukarna. Och lägg gärna märke till att texten blir så känslig i de sista verserna att själva rytmen helt försvinner. Men jag tror att Meat Loaf wailar lite där, bara. Och i bakgrunden hörs ett gitarrsolo som Jim Steinman köpt på Hammerfalls julrea.


Everytime I get company, I have to hide a book by Irvin Welsh

Whenever they call and say they'll be coming around
I scream out loud and throw myself to the ground
Oh no not again
Oh no it can't be true
Oh no not again
These things I have to do

Forever I said and promised I'd keep it this time
I shake my head and yell oh why oh why oh why
Oh no not again
Oh no it can't be true
Oh no not again
These things I do to you

Whatever they do and hey they always do the same
I have to hide you I have to make you go away
Oh no not again
Oh no it can't be true
Oh no not again
These things I put you through

Together we'd stay but I know you can't be seen
If they saw you, what would they think of me?
Oh no not again
Oh no it can't be true
Oh no not again
If only they had made another cover for you
If only he'd have given you another name
I love you so much but what can I do
You make me feel so much shame

You're my favourite book, but the writer was cruel
Why did he have to write it in block letters, all over you?
Every time people come to visit
I have to take you from my shelf
I don't want to hurt you, but I hurt myself
It's not really fair now is it

Oh no oh no oh no
