Jag sitter hemma och leker svart magi
Jag gör små dockor, som jag sticker nålar I
Hej, hej, hej
Vill du bli min vän?
Hej, hej, hej
Hej, hej, hej
Vill du bli min vän?
Oh, jag vill bli din
Oh, jag vill bli din
Jag har en hemlighet, jag spelar tv-spel där
Jag skickar snuskiga brev, till tanterna I mitt kvarter
Hej, hej, hej
Vill du bli min vän?
Hej, hej, hej
Vill du bli min vän?
Hej, hej, hej
Vill du bli min vän?
Oh, jag vill bli din
Oh, jag vill bli din
Oh, jag vill bli din
Oh, jag vill bli din
Oh, jag vill bli din
Jag blir kändis snart, mina barn blir kändisbarn
För jag har en kromad tanx I mitt garage till hans
Hej, hej, hej
Vill du bli min vän?
Hej, hej, hej
Vill du bli min vän?
Hej, hej, hej
Vill du bli min vän?
Hej, hej, hej

Oh, jag vill bli din
Oh, jag vill bli din
In Thåström's song "King Kong," the singer starts off by describing a fascination with black magic and creating voodoo dolls, which he then sticks needles into. Though seemingly harmless, this could suggest a darker, twisted side of the singer's personality. As the song progresses, he reaches out to others, asking them if they want to be his friend. However, there's a level of ambiguity or potential danger in his repeated insistence, "Oh, jag vill bli din" (Oh, I want to be yours). It could suggest a desire for control or possessiveness over his potential friends.
The second verse describes the singer's secret obsession with writing dirty letters to elderly women in his neighborhood and playing video games. The juxtaposition of these activities could suggest a stunted emotional development or a desire to escape reality into a childish, fantasy world. The chorus repeats again, though it takes on a potential ominous tone as he mentions becoming famous and his children becoming famous as well due to his possession of a "kromad tanx" (chrome tank) in his garage. This final verse could suggest a potential delusion or dangerous obsession with power and control.
