I come from a country that\u2019s hard to find Somewhere near the icy pole But though we are freezing please bear in mind<\/p>\n

Sweden\u2019s gonna warm your soul<\/p>\n

Our people are cold but our elks are hot A horny horde in every fjord Our moose may be loose but they hit the spot On our Swedish Smorgasbord<\/p>\n

A tour of our nation is certain to impress We\u2019ve quite a few surprises for you A Swedish chef and Death playing chess<\/p>\n

And a girl with a dragon tattoo Papa – Po<\/p>\n

By winning this contest you get the chance To host a show you can\u2019t afford But then sell your country through song and dance Here\u2019s our Swedish smorgasbord<\/p>\n

Part\u00a02:<\/em><\/p>\n

We\u2019re green to our planet with eco-pride Recycling is in our hearts Mamma Mia Ikea has gone world-wide Good luck assembling all the parts<\/p>\n

We\u2019re strict and we\u2019re structured and seldom vent Don\u2019t show emotion never whine Not easy to please but we\u2019re quite content When we get to stand in line<\/p>\n

Does anyone know what this line is for Well\u2026 I\u2019d better stay and find out<\/em><\/p>\n

Proper and polite and private is our style Never ever talk on a train And if we see a stranger throw us a smile He\u2019s either a drunk or insane<\/p>\n

Everyday we face it Fly on up and taste it Try our Swedish Smorgasbord<\/p>\n

Swedish Sm\u00f6rg\u00e5sbord<\/p>\n

Part\u00a03:<\/em><\/p>\n

Beneath the midnight sun The blondes have all the fun And if you long for stockings say \u201cAmen!\u201d<\/p>\n

From Vikings we descended It\u00b4s frightning what those men did<\/p>\n

But see how we\u2019ve evolved since then<\/p>\n

Our roles are reversing Our daddies are nursing In all of our cities Though men don\u2019t have titties They can still stay at home to raise the kids<\/p>\n

And our girls can handle their balls With the best kickline of them all<\/p>\n

You may now kiss the groom<\/em><\/p>\n

Follow our example Come and try a sample Of our Swedish Smorgasbord!<\/p>\n

Part\u00a04:<\/em><\/p>\n

For Strindberg And Bergman And Celsius All rise For Thor and Bj\u00f6rn Borg And the great Nobel Prize<\/p>\n

There\u2019s Volvo And Garbo The best lingonberry And all of our problems Digesting our dairy… Jaa…<\/p>\n

Oh look it\u00b4s Carola<\/em><\/p>\n
