Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Min pappa läxade upp mig, han fick mig att känna skam Han kan vara lite väl ärlig ibland Han sa du kan inte driva runt här som en ond ande Nå, nu har jag ett jobb i Kajanaland
Vi måste ses snart igen
Du måste komma dit och hälsa på
Där finns sjöar och mujkor och borgruiner Vi kan gå runt på stan Ta ett par glas på en bar Det här kan va den vändpunkt jag letat efter
Nu packar jag i väg mot himlens rand
Det kom mindre och mindre in på kontot varje månad
Nu hoppar jag på tåget till Kajanaland
The lyrics of Vasas flora och fauna's song "Kajanaland" describe the excitement and relief of the singer upon receiving a job offer in Kajanaland. The singer had been struggling to make ends meet, with their father even admonishing them for "driving around like a bad spirit." However, with the opportunity to work in Kajanaland, all of the singer's concerns seem to evaporate. The town is described as unchanging, with no valleys or washed-up shores, and the job offer represents a turning point for the singer.
The song also conveys a sense of adventure, with the singer inviting the listener to come to Kajanaland and explore. Lakes, mujkos, and castle ruins are mentioned as possible sights to see, and there is the prospect of a night out at a bar. Despite the difficulties the singer faced before receiving the job offer, the song ends on a positive note as they prepare to leave for Kajanaland.
The lyrics are open to interpretation, but to me, the song speaks to the desire for stability and a sense of purpose that comes from having a job. The town of Kajanaland represents a new beginning for the singer, and the potential to build a better life. There is a sense of hope and optimism throughout the song, as though the singer is finally able to leave their troubles behind and move forward.
