Glad you enjoyed it!
The song is from the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical 'Evita'. Well, from a Norwegian version of it anyway. I remember in the nominations topic you said you like songs that sound unconventional, and this is one of the most unconventional arrangement of a musical songs I know, so I nominated it.

The lyrics are actually about political intrigue, as Eva and Juan Peron (the main female and male singers) discuss on how to gain power against their political rivals.

The English opening lyrics are as such:
[Peron]
Dice are rolling, the knives are out
Would-be presidents are all around
I don't say they mean harm
But they'd each give an arm
To see us six feet underground

[Eva]
It doesn't matter what those morons say
Our nation's leaders are a feeble crew
There's only twenty of them anyway
What is twenty next to millions who
Are looking to you?

That is really awesome! I'll have to look into Evita. Which is interesting, because I'm generally not a fan of Andrew Lloyd Webber, but those lyrics are on point.
