Kent - Frank Lyrics Translation

Album: Kent
Lyrics: Joakim Berg
Music: Joakim Berg


He caught the kick with his head
He had thought all thoughts yet
He didn't stand up when he got it
Too drunk even to walk
Slowly one forgets everything
Also boys in corduroy
But I remember our screaming chairs in the kitchen
And the whirl on my ball of porcelain
My friend had chalk white teeth
His clothes smelled of smoke
So vivid that it sometimes feels
As if I am the one who's dead

A shiny marble
Lay so heavily in my hand
Worth more than balls of glass
A marble Frank
I never come closer than that
A shiny morning in the hand of Frank

He caught the kick with his head
Like heading a football into the goal
Like throwing a stone high over the roof
And climb where nobody can reach
Slowly one forgets everthing
Also wooden shoes Yellow Blend in secret
But I remember things he said that made me bigger
Not so shy
On his coat there were four marks
Heroes in glitter material
Slade, Kiss, Bowie and Sweet, the year when Pinups were new

A shiny marble
Lay so heavily in my hand
Worth more than balls of glass
A marble Frank
I never come closer than that
A shiny morning in the hand of Frank

Now I am bigger, now I am older
Older than you
Now I am bigger, bigger than you

A shiny marble
Lay so heavily in my hand
Worth more than balls of glass
A marble Frank
I never come closer than that
A shiny morning in the hand of Frank
