Greenland

I want to go to Greenland
I love to play out in the snow
I'll build myself an igloo
Like a migrant eskimo

Floating on an iceberg
Canoeing down a Fjord
I'd love to spot a polar bear
While fishing with a cord

A land without a curfew
Where all the bars are open
Not a single sign of covid there
Where no angry words are spoken

Geographically part of America
Politically quite European
And fish is on the menu
At the Knud Rasmussen Museum

Oh I'd love to go to Greenland
It must be just like heaven
No traffic jams to deal with
In the mornings at half past seven

I'll find myself a woman
And bring her a bouquet of red roses
I bet they're pretty good in bed
If you don't mind rubbing noses

I hear a voice a calling me
I'll book my one-way trip
Just sit down on the melting icecap
And watch that water drip

I'll say goodbye to Holland
As I watch the sea level rise
Gazing at the northern lights
While I wait my turn to die

Well I want to go to Greenland
I hope it's nice and cold
I want to go to Greenland
Before I get too old
Thank god they had
Their heads screwed on
Before their country was almost sold

I have to go to Greenland
