Lyrics (in Swedish!)

du kan spräcka en skärm, du kan spräcka en söm
du kan spräcka din solsemesterdröm
eller glastaket om du får en chans
men inte en slidkrans

du kan spräcka en sten, du kan spräcka betong
du kan spräcka hål i din luftballong
eller en borgerlig allians
men inte en slidkrans

den är elastisk, fantastisk
säger ingenting om din sexdebut
nån mödomshinna kan ingen finna
den myten måste få ett slut

du kan spräcka rekord i ett mästerskap
du kan spräcka ditt tredje äktenskap
eller illusionen av en sund finans
men inte en slidkrans

Happy translating!
