Artsy, Artsy, here’s Amanda,
Handling paint like it’s her sword;
Living in a northern country,
Sipping booze she can’t afford.
She now paints in chilly studios,
Eating soup five times a day.
Fuck that land of mountain trolls,
It’s full of Teslas anyway.
Norway, Norway rich and chilly,
Swimming deep in oil and pride,
Former Danish territory
But they joined the other side
Though your land is full of beauty
Tasty food you must import
What else are you famous for?
Only fish and winter sport!
Europe, Europe our homeland,
We have all your favorites things
Polish booze and Spanish tapas
Handsome men for endless flings
Guys are sometimes too much drama
Wait – the girls are also cute?
Don’t forget your friends all live here
We will wait with wine and fruit
Tipsy, tipsy, here’s Amanda
May her light forever shine!
Now she’s thirty, fierce and thriving,
Slightly broke but still divine.
Lift your glasses to salute her,
Hold her close though she’s not near
We approach you with a mission,
Please come back, we need you here.
