To Know Your Mission (Feat. Loulou Lamotte) - Jens Lekman
A Mormon missionary
walks through Vasaallen
Through a clear-as-crystal
Gothenburg morning
Removing his suit jacket
loosening his tie
Wiping the sweat from his
neck and the sleep
from his eyes
It's 1997
the last morning of August
At the corner of 7-Eleven
he hears the broadcast
Another saint is lost
Lady Di's returned to stardust
He listens to the tragic news
followed by the Top 10 tunes
All all
We have left
All all
We have left
All all
We have left
All all
We have left
Will Smith Puff Daddy
Gala Chumbawamba
On the other side
of the street he passes
Cafe Java
Where no one listens
to that crap
Oh coffee and hair
dyed raven black
All so sure of everything
except one question
What's our mission
What are we here for
Who are we serving
What can we do
What's our mission
What are we here for
Who are we serving
What can we do
He bumps into a teenage
boy leaning 'gainst the fence
Who takes his headphones off
and introduces himself as Jens
Riffling through
the Book of Mormon
says it's way too early
in the morning
Instead of talking about religion
can we just talk about how it feels
To know your mission
To know what you're here for
To know who you're serving
To know what to do
To know your mission
To know what you're here for
To know who you're serving
To know what to do
To have a dream
A GPS in your heart
A path to follow
Through the dark
Well Jens says
I write songs sometimes
But they're kinda bad
So if that doesn't work out
I want to be a social
worker just like my dad
I just want to listen to
people's stories
Hear what they have to say
My friends say
Just be a shrink then
But I don't know
I don't think
I'll have the grades
But in a world of mouths
I want to be an ear
If there's a purpose to all this
Then that's
why God put me here
I know what I'm here for
I know who I'm serving
I'm serving you

I'm serving you
All all
We have left
All all
We have left
All all
We have left
All all
