[Intro: Ragnar Þórhallsson]
Tveir
Einn, tveir, þrír, fjór

[Verse 1: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir]
Oh, that’s it, what an entrance, what a stunt I pulled
The thoughts they smash against my skull
I’m in deep, lipstick on my teeth, a little on my cheek
I think I’ve lost my sense of humour

[Chorus: Nanna, Nanna & Ragnar]
I remember we were waiting like two kinds in the parking lot
Keep it separate, is it enough that it’s breaking my heart?
I forget I’m masquerading, we were laughing and then I was not
Keep it separate, is it enough that I’m playing the part?
Ooh, ooh-ooh, is it enough that I’m playing the part?
Ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2: Nanna]
Oh, my heart, what a horror show
With her crooked noses, says. “Odds are ever in my favour”
Could that be my magnum opus?
More like bulls*it, my grandiose tumor

[Chorus: Nanna, Nanna & Ragnar]
I remember we were waiting like two kinds in the parking lot
Keep it separate, is it enough that it’s breaking my heart?
I forget the masquerading, it was snowing and then it was not
Keep it separate, is it enough that it’s breaking my heart?
I admit I’m a bit frustrated and I’m tired and I lost the plot
Keep it separate, is it enough that I’m playing the part?
Ooh, ooh-ooh, is it enough that I’m playing the part?
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, is it enough that I’m playing the part?
Ooh-ooh-ooh, is it enough that it’s breaking my heart?

[Outro: Nanna]

Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
