When I first came to Icelandic back in ´94, everyone and their mothers insisted on informing me that Led Zeppelin´s 'Immigrant Song' was about Iceland.
Hence this silly little parody...
Ahhh ahh ahh ahh!
Ahh ahh ahh ahh!>We come from the land of the snow and ice
Where they sell the beer for too high a price!
The failure of our banks
Will drive our youth
To new lands
Flat screens and Hummers
Borrowing and buying
Glitnir I am blaming you!
And so we shop
At the discount store
Our only goal to leave these
Bankrupt shores!
Ahhh ahh ahh ahh!
Ahhh ahh ahh ahh!
We come from the land of the ice and snow
Where the market suck and bankers blow!
How soft their heads, so dumb
Those banskter boys of yore,
Of how they claimed to know their shit,
We all went overboard!
And so we weep, as we leave these shores
Our only hope to work Canadian stores!
Or maybe we’ll rise up, reclaim all these ruins
Cause pots and pans could win the day, despite the useless choosin!
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ahh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
