Lyrics Hatari – Spillingardans

Icelandic:

Spillingardans
Hvarvetna alþjóð dansar þennan vals
Neyslutrans

Spillingardans
Hvaðanæva – sjö milljarðar manns
Neyslutrans
Gróðafíkn og nautnarfans
Nýju föt fasistans

Hvar varst þú?
Hvert förum við nú
Fyrirmyndarland?
Hvar var ég?
Veit ei hvaðan ég kem
Né hvert ég fer

Hvar varst þú?
Fyrirmyndarland?
Hvar var ég?
Veit ei hvaðan ég kem
Né hvert ég fer

Spillingardans
Hvarvetna alþjóð dansar þennan vals
Neyslutrans
Alsherjarópíum aumingjans
Vökul hendi kúgarans
Nýju föt fasistans
Veldissproti hégómans

English translation:

Corruption dance
Every nation’s waltz, danced in every land
Consumption trance
On avarice and greed
Lust, extravagance
Damned capitalists feed

Corruption dance
Seven billion step as if to the same band
Consumption trance
Their avarice just grows
The fascist’s new clothes

Where were you?
Where do we go now?
Model country?
Where was I?
I don’t know where I come from
Or where I am going

Where were you?
Model country?
Where was I?
I don’t know where I come from
Or where I am going

Corruption dance
The waltz of every nation
Consumption trance
Massed opiate gyration
The opressor’s sleepless hand
The facist’s new clothes
Vanity’s sceptered pose
On avarice and greed
Damned capitalists feed
