- diggar till gammal tältprojektlåt
Translation:
“we want bread, we want potatoes, we need food to keep working!”
Its a lyric about the food shortages in sweden during the time of ww1, and the political effects of this
(which among things were angry hungry people chanting this @ swedish societies powerful)
the same song later have this moment:
“narrator: the year was 1917 in sweden, audience, look upon it with your own eyes! See it!
Rest your eyes at Västervik!
Shopkeeper: "thieves, you stole my food!”
Narrator: “why, workers are you stealing food?”
Workers: “we need food! We are hungry, and to be able to work we need to not be so! So we opened the food storages and gave out the food for free in our community!”
*later in the song. We are now in Boden*
Officer: “these fucking working class cretin! How do you think we will make them obey, without using violence? Soldiers, open fire!”
*gun fire is heard*
Narrator: “soldiers of the army, why did you shot the officer instead of the workers?”
Soldiers: “to shoot at ones own people would be too much of a dishonor. Which such a order given, we rather shoot the officer who gave the order!”
(a context here. I assume the soldiers speaking in the musical represent soldiers called in to do their allmän värnplikt military service. Those consisted of basically all men with swedish citizenship. While the officers were often from posh backgrounds)
Anyway more translated snippets from tältprojektet song revultionsopera. I am not claiming this song got historical accuracy, idk tbh its a musical song. But. That song is a sweet socialist tune i must say.

When you feel someone is being a bit too extra:
“why did your monologue suddenly turn into en dåres försvarstal by August Strindberg?”
when family drama is afoot
“the mood in this room matches the mood of a play by Norén”
When there is just silence and anxiety
“this like the first hour of the director choice version of Fanny & Alexander”
You should absolutely watch Strindberg and Helium
I have done so, and I LOVE it haha
Father, to mother: “If this was a play by Norén, you’d be ashes on the fireplace mantle!”
Son, to father: “Yeah, well, if this was a play by Gardell, I’d be gay!”
Everyone, to son: “This *is* a play by Gardell!”
