  • What’s Denmark Got to Do With It? by Tina Tørnér

    You must explain it to me, I don’t quite understand, This icy place they call Greenland—what’s the Danish plan? It’s got icebergs and tundra, not castles or beer— How’s Copenhagen tied to something way up here?

    I’ve heard they rule it, but why do they care? It’s far away, and it’s freezing out there!

    What’s Denmark got to do, got to do with it? What’s Denmark’s claim on this frozen bit? What’s Denmark got to do, got to do with it? Who needs a kingdom when it’s Arctic grit?

    Is it about the Vikings? Or just flags on the ground? Why does a country so tiny keep this icy crown? There’s Inuit culture—they’ve lived here so long, Yet Denmark stamps their coins; it just feels wrong.

    The whole thing’s puzzling—why’s it this way? Do they like the cod or the oil in the bay?

    What’s Denmark got to do, got to do with it? Why keep a land where the summers don’t hit? What’s Denmark got to do, got to do with it? It’s Greenland, not a spot for a Danish knit!

    Maybe it’s history, or maybe it’s greed, Or they just want control of some Arctic seaweed. They’ve got pastries and bicycles, castles so grand— So why do they hold this much colder land?

    Greenland’s so distant, no bakeries in sight, Just polar bears and auroras at night!

    What’s Denmark got to do, got to do with it? Why hold a place where no crops will fit? What’s Denmark got to do, got to do with it? Tell me the reason, I’ll Google it!

    What’s Denmark got to do, got to do with it? What’s the link to this Arctic bit? What’s Denmark got to do, got to do with it? A colony, or just government grit?
