Maestro is track no. 2 in the Maestro album by Kaizers Orchestra.

The norwegian lyrics are:


Eg ser på det eg har skapt

og teller på liv som har gått tapt

Eg ser at det som før låg i vater

eg ser det er blitt skakt


Men tiå har vært snill

mot mitt håndtverk

Eg la ner stein for stein

Eg har stått på min terrasse

og styrt skutå beint


Eg har vært tøff mot min klasse og knukket nogen bein

Eg har gjort mine grep

og holdt samvittigheten rein


Sving din hammer

til din papa drar deg inn

Trekk et rom nummer men ikkje bland din med min


Maestro


Å Clementine, om du var min

og ikkje hadde lagt deg sjøl inn

Då sko du tatt del i det som blir

Flamingos dynasti


What's interesting here, is that if you play the song backwards, "sving din hammer" sounds like "han må henges" (norwegian: "he must be hanged"). Kaizers Orchestra haven't commented this yet. I myself visited one of their concerts and asked the vocalist Jan Ove Ottesen personally, and he said he didn't know about the "he must be hanged"-text which appears when replaying the song backwards.

Please feel free to use my text and rephrase this page into a proper article, I didn't as I'm not interested in writing an article, I just want to share the information.
