[Intro: Einar]
But, I'll teach the little angels
I'll take the harp away
But I'll, I'll teach them how to use the harmonica
Something... I'll just do something like…

[Verse 1: Einar]
My punctuality is well known
When the revolution takes place
I'll be late and I'll be shot as a traitor

[Hook: Björk]
When the sun rises

[Verse 2: Einar]
When the sun rises
I will not see
I regret nothing
It was worth it
Going through life without a timepiece
Did pay off

[Hook: Björk]
The sun rises, oh

[Verse 3: Einar]
My reward to be free
And alone even now at the pillar
Blindfold at sunrise
Hearing the drums
Of Catalan beating my time away
[Hook: Björk]
The sun rises I will not see

[Verse 4: Einar]
My heartbeat keeps time
With the drums
But soon my only pulse will fade away

[Hook: Björk]
The sun rises I will not see

[Outro: Einar]
I smile just knowing
When the sun rises
I will not see
