Indie Pop
Jens Martin Lekman is a Swedish indie pop musician. His music is guitar-based pop with heavy use of samples and strings; the lyrics are often witty, romantic, and melancholic. His work is heavily influenced by that of Jonathan Richman and Belle and Sebastian, and he has been likened to Stephin Merritt of The Magnetic Fields. In 2008, he relocated to Melbourne, Australia.

Nina I can be your boyfriend so you can stay with your girlfriend Your father is a sweet old man but it is hard for him to understand that you wanna love a woman | | Nina I can be your boyfriend if it puts an end to all this nonsens First time I see you in Berlin And you don't tell me anyting Until outside your dad's apartment | Oh God, Jesus Christ I try to focus on your eyes we're having dinner with your family now keep a steady look at your left eyebrow | | If it's raised, it means yes, If it's not it means take a guess Hey! You! Stop kicking my legs I'm doing my best can you pass the eggs | Your father puts on my record He says: So tell me how you met her I get a little nervous and change the subject and put my hand on some metal object He jokes and tells that's a liedetector | | He takes out the booklet and starts reading So I heard you're moving out next season I say: Yeah, New York is nice that time of year almost as green as it is here He says: I thought you were moving to Sweden? | Oh God, what have I done? I came to Berlin to have som fun The clock on the wall strikes four, five, six on your fathers wall a big crucifix Guess that's why he won't let you go His catholic heart is big and slow you know I'll do anything for love but Nina what were you thinking of? | | But Nina I can be your boyfriend So you can stay with your girlfriend Your father is mailing me all the time He says he just wants to say hi I send back "out of office, auto-replies" | Nina I just want to check in 'cause I think about you every second So I send you this postcard just to say Don't let anyone stand in your way Yours truly, Jens Lekman | | Don't let anyone stand in your way Don't let anyone stand in your way Don't let anyone stand in your way Don't let anyone stand in your way |
