Artist: → Histeria!
{Leif Erikson}
One, two, three, fjord!
Let’s pillage!
Vikings, vikings, they’re mean and bad
The people always gripe
But we’re here today to tell you this
{Kid Chorus}
Don’t believe the hype!
{Leif Erikson}
Now vikings come from Norway
Sweden, Denmark, too
But during winter in Scandinavia
{Kid Chorus}
There was nothing much to do!
So we built some ships and took some trips
Across the ocean blue
And exactly where we were going
We didn’t have a clue!
{Leif Erikson}
Thе Denmark Danes went down to Francе
Claimed Normandy for their own
And Denmark’s king, Canute the Great
{Chorus}
Took the English throne!
{Leif Erikson}
Norweigans discovered Iceland
But vikings never stop
{Chorus}
Greenland was discovered by
{Leif Erikson}
Eric the Red, my pop!
{Chorus}
They say Columbus found America
Back when the world was flat
Well, Chris, we got some news for you
{Leif Erikson}
Been there, done that!
{Chorus}
Yeah, we pillaged and we plundered
And held prisoners for ransom
{Leif Erikson}
But don’t forget, we had nice hair
{Chorus}
And were really, really handsome!
{Leif Erikson}
We always launched surprise attacks
Which people found alarming
But when we weren’t ransacking things
{Chorus}
We got really good at farming!
{Leif Erikson}
We made lots of pretty metal things
Like cups and coins we stashed
{Chorus}
But our favorite thing to make was off
With other people’s cash!
{Leif Erikson}
True, we stole and murdered
As we went upon our journeys
{Chorus}
If we lived in modern days
We’d probably be attorneys!
{Leif Erikson}
But hey, we weren’t just pirates
And merciless invaders
{Chorus}
We were artists and explorers
And also business traders!
{Leif Erikson}
Sure, we roughed some people up
And we were hated in our day
But you shouldn’t really blame us
{Chorus}
We’re just bjorn that way!
And that’s our viking rap
We’ve tried to keep it brief
So enjoy the show, we’ve got to go
{Leif Erikson}
And make like me and Leif!
