Lyrics
In the middle of nowhere
In an isolated place with no clear destination
Where the wild spruces grow
Where untamed spruce trees flourish
Stands a man with his chainsaw
Stands an individual equipped with a chainsaw
Gloomy thoughts in his mind
Possessing gloomy and troubling thoughts
Until my foot has gone to sleep I must have sawn
Continuously sawing until physical discomfort sets in
A million blocks of wood, no payment before
Cutting a substantial amount of wood without immediate compensation
What a hell did I do wrong to deserve this trade
Questioning the reasons for undeserved involvement in this trade
Feels like I´m a marionette, an errand boy, a slave
Feeling like a puppet, an obedient worker, a subservient figure
But I never give up
Expressing determination to persist despite challenges
I will never give up
Reiterating the commitment to endure difficulties
Gnawing bones, muscle cramps, backache
Describing physical discomforts like bone gnawing, muscle cramps, and backache
Coldness, warmth, heavy rains, mosquitoes
Mentioning adverse weather conditions and insect nuisances
And this goddamn saw that will never work
Frustration with a malfunctioning saw
But with a madman´s eyes I carry on, nothing they can do
Persisting with determination despite challenges and criticism
A man with mystery
Describing the person as mysterious
A man without history
Emphasizing the lack of a documented past
A man with his story
Asserting that the individual has a unique story
A man with mystery
Reiteration of the mysterious nature of the person
A man with mystery
-A man without history
Emphasizing the lack of a documented past
A man with his story
Asserting that the individual has a unique story
A man with mystery
Final reiteration of the mysterious nature of the person
