Svartby - Riv, Hugg Och Bit lyrics



Tracks



01. Dvärgby (Dwarf Village)

[instrumental]

02. Trollkarlar Av Dvärgfolk (Sorcerers Of Dwarf Folk)

Sorcerers of dwarven folk
Wandering among
The night shades

They see everything
They know everything
Always a bit drunk
In the night they are brewing
Something in their pots

Witchcraft
Among yellow flames
Old dwarven witchcraft
They are doing it
They are doing it
Just for fun

The eldest sorcerer is
The most humpbacked
The most cunning
He has the biggest warts
That's why he's the chief dwarf

03. Dvärgars Bastu (Sauna Of Dwarves)

Cold springs give
Water for our sauna
Entrance is here
Under a rotten stump
Step in!
Step in!

Juniper bunches beat us
Mushrooms and logs
Are burning hot
See how our eyes glitter
In sauna's heat!

Sauna of dwarves
We wash our bodies
Sauna of dwarves
We drink beer

With heat and foam
Dirt and mud flees from bodies
Vapors of our sauna
May be poisonous
Not for us
We like
Fly agarics!

04. Ölfrun (Beer Wife)

Beer wife
How much ale
Beer wife
Shall I drink
To forget myself?

Who doesn't wait for you at home,
Dwarf?
Who cooks pumpkin porridge
Every day?

Housewife or house animal?

Wedding
Drunk oaths
Bride is better
Through the glass bottom
Wedding
I don't know
How it happened

05. Ensam Ensling (Lonely Loner)

Lonely roads
Empty air
Without brothers
Without beer

Lonely loner
Is going home
No known sounds I hear?

I am a lonely loner
Lonely loner on a lonely road
I am a lonely loner
I am a wandering dwarf

I will find
My dwarf village
Fight and feast
Wait for me

Lonely loner
Is going home
No known sights I see?

06. Groda, Ryttare (Frog Riders)

Green and spotted
Frogs, frogs
Jump merrily through bog
Carry dwarves on their
Slippery
Backs, backs

Rush fast
Chop off
Toes with their axes
Frog riders

Between bushes
Through secret paths ride
Frog riders
Bloodred berries they eat,
Swamp water they drink
Frog riders

Feet entangled in roots
Lonely traveler falls
The last thing he feels
Are wet pads on his body
And his head is cut off

07. Solens Ljus (Light Of The Sun)

After I finished
My night deeds
I'm coming home
Coming to my dark home

It's good to sleep
Under a stump
When frogs are singing
In darkness

It's dawning!
The Sun!
I feel bad
I burn!

I hide myself in bushes
I hide myself under roots
I hide myself in
Every hole, every shade

Evil, bad sunlight!
It torments so much!
I don't like at all
When it roasts my head

Shall I live?
Shall I cure
After the sunlight?
After the burning enemy?

08. Kvävande Gruvor (Choking Mines)

Hear our fathers go
And sing their song
About how cool it is
To mine iron and coal

Dumb fathers
In dirty clothes

We went out, we went up
To live in old forest
All that we want
We take free!

Want to have something -
Steal and rob!

We will never
Work there, in mines
Cut iron and coal
We will never live
In choking mines,
Choking mines

09. Regnbågen (Rainbow)

[instrumental]

10. Liv Eller Guld (Life Or Gold)

Again, rainbow after rain!
I hate the traitor
That shows where my
Pot with gold is!

Dumb peasants won't find my treasure
They return home without eyes and feet
What will happen if they go
To seek for my coins?
Life or gold?

Thorns and roots
Stones and bogs
Rifts and hollows
Hunt after them
Life or gold?

11. Humus (Humus)

Witches' sorcery, dwarves' axes
Murder those who cross
Svartby's borders

Dead humans lying deep
Under roots around Svartby
Rotten bodies nourish earth

Magis soil changes the forest
Black weeds, rotten trees
Toadstools, evil beasts

Dead humans lying deep
Under roots around Svartby
Rotten bodies nourish earth

Ancient soil
Magic black soil
Ancient soil
The most evil humus

Fertile land,
The black battle
Against the intruders

Dead humans lying deep
Under roots around Svartby
Rotten bodies nourish earth

12. Riv, Hugg Och Bit (Rip, Chop And Bite)

The girl washes herself in the river
Rubbing her precious body
Soap foam over groin
Dwarves are watching?

Bawdy,
Drunken and sweaty

Five of them knock her down
Ten of them fuck her
They bind her, she screams
They fill all her holes

They grant life to the whore
The girl gives birth to new dwarves
Young dwarves go away
Go away to watch too?

13. Snubbar, Snubbar (Blokes, Blokes)

No boobs
Only muscles
Dwarven girls
Are like blokes

Long beards
Mighty arms
Dwarven girls
Are like blokes

Blokes, blokes,
Mighty fists
Blokes, blokes
Tough temper

In the bed,
You don't know
Whether you fuck her
Or she fucks you

Dwarven girls
Are like blokes

14. Vinterkväll (Winter Evening)

Snowstorm howls around dwarven house
It's so warm and cosy inside
Nice pot with grog
Stands on a hearth

Small window shines
Under oaken roots
My underground house
In winter forest
The most pleasant winter evening

I smoke my pipe
I raise my wooden mug
I don't care much for those
Who are freezing outside

In the morning I'll go outside with my spade
We will dig up frozen corpses
I will carry them under my roots
I will cook small meat balls
