Lyrics:
"When asked to present the global perception of danes
I can only hope that this video entertains
Right here you see a picture of quite high value
And in these next few lines, I'll explain to you
Using brainstorming this is what was created
Then the picture was formed, quite exaggerated
There's more than meets the eye, so I hope that you can see
As you can see there is a dane on a bike
This doesn't surprise us, as its quite a common site
Making his way to where he needs to go
Zipping on through As the wind continues to blow
But the bike isn't quite, ordinary
As you can see
The seat appears to be
...a hygienic facility
Now if you don't quite know where I'm going with this
Then lets shift the view to something that we cannot dismiss
On top of his head we see something strange
It looks like an umbrella, but its function has changed
Water is raining from deep down inside
Laying out the rules, by which we must abide
So along with the toilet one can assume.
That together they portray, the Danish bathroom.
A small amount of space, so the two must comply
Toilet, Shower, Sink, can all be seen with one eye
And when you shower, NOTHING stays dry.
But if you have, this setup in your home
Then you are really killing, two birds with one stone
Both the toilet and the shower are available to you
And the world is your oyster, so what are you to do?
Its really quite ingenious, involving some wit
You can sit down on the toilet and also take a shower...
I have grown quite accustomed to this
And when I leave denmark, its something that I'll miss
So at the end of my exchange, when I come back home
And I'm sitting in my washroom, on the floo all alone
I'm tearing out my bathrub, and I'm throwing it outside
Because I like the freedom that this concept can provide
And If my family tries to complain.
Too bad, because from now on, we're living like a Dane.
And last but not least, here we have a little child
In his Danish diaper, with a big little smile
Cruising with his parents, on their bike in style.
And the investment they put in it, will be quite worthwhile
For you see, what looks like a simple childrens toy
Is more than just a windmill that children can enjoy.
It's the stepping stone, to something far greater
The effects of which can been see far later
Down the road of these vast great lands
Because the future of this city, rests in their hands"
