Wash It Yourself


I saw you at the train station
It was almost five o clock
I didn’t hear what you said
But it sounded like you wanted me to come home with you
Mmmmm
It took me five minutes
But I get it now
I’ve done what the voice told me to do
“Seek boy, just seek”
I found you at Hellerup train station

Yeah, yeah
You make me a man, baby
I wash my own clothes now

I wash it myself
I sort it myself
And I went grocery shopping on my own yesterday
So come into my arms
I wanted to give you my name
But you didn’t want to be called Rasmus

I look at you for hours
Until you close your curtains
I’m just so full of love
So why involve the police?
It’s just a flirt
Nothing to report
I broke into your basement
I just want to help wash you clothes
After smelling it
Mmmmm

Yeah, yeah
I use lukewarm water, baby
So the smell doesn’t come out entirely

I wash it myself
I sort it myself
And I build a nest of your underwear
We play tag
I grab you
Why don’t you want to be called Rasmus?

Do you feel like me?
I can see you’ve been crying again
Tell me if you feel sad
I’m always here for you like a friend
No
Now you say you feel bound
And that you’ve been in the basement for a month
I want to get under your skin
Have you on me
Like a jacket

Yeah, yeah
You make me a man, baby
A man with lady skin

I wash you myself
I iron you myself
And you protect me from the weather
No longer imprisoned
You’re close to me
I’m inside you
My new jacket is called Rasmus

(Lyrics translation by Humon from Rævesovsen - Vasker det selv)

A Wish Come True (A Short Story)

I woke up with a start when I found myself in a very unfamiliar place. The bed I was lying on was grand—an English-quilting blanket and 2 soft pillows with flowery laces. The whole place was fit for a king! Suddenly the door opened and there stood my dream prince: Katsuya Kimura! I gasped in astonishment for he was actually a cartoon character. I did not know that he really exist. “Wake up, dear,” he said and pulled off the blanket and handed it to a woman who looked like the maid. “You will be late for work.” “Work?” I asked. “Yes! Work! Have you forgotten your own comic workhouse, baby dear?” Comic workhouse?! I…I have became a cartoonist? That was my wildest dreams! Being a cartoonist! I undressed and changed into my beige T-shirt and black trousers at once and hurriedly finished my breakfast. Katsuya drove me to the workhouse. My, my, was it big! I’ve never seen a bigger place than this! Katsuya kissed me and said, “See you at four, OK, baby?” I blushed scarlet. I always wan

Hans and Hilda

Once upon a time there was an old miller who had two children who were twins. The boy-twin was named Hans, and he was very greedy. The girl-twin was named Hilda, and she was very lazy. Hans and Hilda had no mother, because she died whilst giving birth to their third sibling, named Engel, who had been sent away to live wtih the gypsies. Hans and Hilda were never allowed out of the mill, even when the miller went away to the market. One day, Hans was especially greedy and Hilda was especially lazy, and the old miller wept with anger as he locked them in the cellar, to teach them to be good. "Let us try to escape and live with the gypsies," said Hans, and Hilda agreed. While they were looking for a way out, a Big Brown Rat came out from behind the log pile. "I will help you escape and show you the way to the gypsies' campl," said the Big Brown Rat, "if you bring me all your father's grain." So Hans and Hilda waited until their father let them out,

I Was A Lab Assistant of Sorts (Part 3)

Hey everyone. I know it's been a minute, but I figured I would bring you up to speed on everything that happened. So, needless to say, I got out, but the story of how it happened was wild. So there we were, me and the little potato dude, just waiting for the security dude to call us back when the little guy got chatty again. “Do you think he can get us out?” he asked, not seeming sure. “I mean, if anyone can get us out it would be him, right?” “What do you base this on?” I had to think about that for a minute before answering, “Well, he's security. It's their job to protect people, right? If anyone should be able to get us out, it should be them.” It was the little dude's turn to think, something he did by slowly breathing in and out as his body puffed up and then shrank again. “I will have to trust in your experience on this matter. The only thing I know about security is that they give people tickets
