I heard somebody say we should change the name of Greenland
To red, white, and blue land
That’s quite preposterous you know
I’ve never seen red and blue snow
Besides, I think maybe it should be named Orangeland
In honor of their new king
King of the right wing
Or is it king of the chicken wing?
Or maybe they should trade names with Iceland to reverse that old Viking trick
That might be my second pick
Oh, but then again, maybe we should just leave the Greenlanders alone
Leave them alone
Leave them alone
How’d you like it if someone changed your name or tried to steal your home?
Leave them alone
Leave them alone
Just leave those Greenlanders alone
Let them go fishing and whaling in peace
Up in the land of the midnight sun
Let them drink their brennivín cuz they can’t grow sugar for rum
They’ve been living up there for 5000 years
The Inughuit, the Tunumiit, and the Kalaallit too
Leave those Greenlanders alone
You arrogant greedy-eyed fools
Leave them alone
Leave them alone
How’d you like it if someone changed your name or tried to steal your home?
Leave them alone
Leave them alone
Just leave those Greenlanders alone
You big bully
Just leave those Greenlanders alone
