《To Know Your Mission》歌词

[00:00:00] To Know Your Mission - Jens Lekman

[00:00:00] A Mormon missionary walks through voseling

[00:00:07] Through a clear-as-crystal Gothenburg morning

[00:00:15] Removing his suit jacket loosening his tie

[00:00:23] Wiping the sweat from his neck and the sleep from his eyes

[00:00:30] It's 1997 the last morning of August

[00:00:37] At the corner of 7-Eleven he hears the broadcast

[00:00:44] Another saint is lost Lady Di's returned to stardust

[00:00:51] He listens to the tragic news followed by the Top 10 tunes

[00:01:11] Will Smith Puff Daddy Gala Chumbawamba

[00:01:18] On the other side of the street he passes Café Java

[00:01:25] Where no listens to that crap

[00:01:29] Oh coffee and hair dyed raven black

[00:01:32] All so sure of everything except one question

[00:01:38] What's our mission

[00:01:41] What are we here for

[00:01:45] Who are we serving

[00:01:48] What can we do

[00:01:52] What's our mission

[00:01:55] What are we here for

[00:01:58] Who are we serving

[00:02:02] What can we do

[00:02:06] He bumps into a teenage boy leaning against the fence

[00:02:13] Who takes his headphones off and introduces himself as Jens

[00:02:20] Riffling through the Book of Mormon says

[00:02:23] it's way too early in the morning

[00:02:27] Instead of talking about religion

[00:02:30] Can we just talk about how it feels

[00:02:33] To know your mission

[00:02:36] To know what you're here for

[00:02:40] To know who you're serving

[00:02:43] To know what to do

[00:02:46] To know your mission

[00:02:50] To know what you're here for

[00:02:53] To know who you're serving

[00:02:57] To know what to do

[00:03:08] To have a dream

[00:03:11] A GPS in your heart

[00:03:16] A path to follow

[00:03:20] Through the dark

[00:03:24] Well Jens says I write songs sometimes

[00:03:29] But they're kinda bad

[00:03:33] So if that doesn't work out

[00:03:36] I want to be a social worker just like my dad

[00:03:41] I just want to listen to people's stories

[00:03:46] Hear what they have to say

[00:03:49] My friends say Just be a shrink then

[00:03:53] But I don't know I don't think I'll have the grades

[00:03:58] But in a world of mouths

[00:04:02] I want to be an ear

[00:04:06] If there's a purpose to all this

[00:04:11] Then that's why God put me here

[00:04:16] I know what I'm here for

[00:04:19] I know who I'm serving

[00:04:23] I'm serving you

[00:04:37] I'm serving you
