ABAB
Click to see the original lyrics (Swedish)
If you want to beat people without any consequences, and get paid for doing so
Or if you’re too lousy to be a cop
You’ll get your own baton
And a fashionable grey beret
You’ll have the same salary as a cop
Because ABAB ABAB, they need you in their troop
Yes ABAB ABAB, and you only need to act cool
Because ABAB ABAB, they need you in their troop
Yes ABAB ABAB, and you only need to act cool
They don’t demand anything from you, you can be as rough as you like
Just smash the junkie’s face in
You’ll get your own baton
And a fashionable grey beret
You’ll have the same salary as a cop
Because ABAB ABAB, they need you in their troop
Yes ABAB ABAB, and you only need to act cool
Yes ABAB ABAB, they need you in their troop
Yes ABAB ABAB, and you only need to act cool cool cool cool

Russia is waging a disgraceful war on Ukraine. Stand With Ukraine!

The “ABAB” referred to in this song is a now nonexistent security company that existed in Sweden between the 1960’s and the 90’s. The word “snut” is slang for “polis”, which translates to “police” in English.
