Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Så vi satt der på kaia, så badet kom å dra
Husker som det var igår, jeg holdt i hånda di da
Men vi satt i samma båt som aldri komer i land,
En type kjærlighet som måtte gå galt
For jæ sku bli trommis når æ ble go,
Forlovelsesring sku du få når jeg dro,
Nå leser du breva, fra avdeling B på godtsn
Ingen parfyme som lokta av olje å køl,
Ingen var deili som du den dan jeg ble taua
Polisen ga mække sjansen te å sei adjø
Så sto vi bakom teinern å klin
å folka satt å skøyt opp bak konteinern me sila
Så brått så sto jeg der bak den konteinern å dila
Til dem putta meg i bilen fortvila,
For jeg skulle bli lovlig når jeg ble stor
Ett hus og en hage der vi skulle bo
Istede for det ble det fem og et halvt i fengsel
Musikken var aldri så vakker vinsja på kaia
Ingen parfyme som lokta av olje å køl,
Ingen var deili som du den dan jeg ble taua
Polisen ga mække en sjansen te å sei adjø
The lyrics to Onklp's song Vinsja på kaia describe a bittersweet memory of a failed love story. The singer reminisces about a time spent with his former love interest on a harbour pier where they waited for a boat that never arrived. He recalls holding her hand and dreaming about their future together. He promised her an engagement ring before he left to pursue his dream of becoming a drummer. However, their plans never came to fruition, and the relationship fell apart. The lyrics reflect on the missed opportunities of their love story, and the regret that comes with not being able to make things work.
Throughout the song, the imagery of the harbour and its industrial surroundings creates a contrast between the beauty of the moment shared by the couple and the harsh realities of their circumstances. The scent of oil and diesel, the sound of boat horns, and the sight of police cars serve as a reminder of the challenges that the couple faced. The song also references the singer's time in jail, a painful consequence of his choices and missed opportunities.
Overall, the lyrics convey a message of loss and the weight of past mistakes. The singer remembers a moment of genuine connection and love, but ultimately, the relationship failed to overcome the obstacles in their way.

Så og si like bra som originalen. Veldig imponert av å se et annet aspekt enn rap hos Pål. Dødsrått levert av Pål
