Greenland, Greenland by John Dillon published on 2019-08-31T00:24:16Z A song about Donald Trump's fantasy to buy Greenland. Lyrics: Andrew Johnson bought Alaska from the Russian Czar They did celebrate with champagne and caviar Louisiana Purchase made by Thomas Jefferson How will I be remembered when all is said and done? So I hatched a plan to buy some land up near the northern pole What a steal, way up there, where no one wants to go When global warming takes it’s toll, oceans on the rise When Mar-a-Lago’s drowning, we’ll need some high and dry Greenland, Greenland, what I’m dreaming of Greenland, Greenland, what’s not to love? I’m looking for a way for me to go down in history That icy island paradise might be my legacy When all the snow and ice melts we’ll profit from the change Country clubs with pools and spas, a first class driving range We’ll scrape the rocks, make new fields and cultivate the soil Mine the rare earth minerals, suck out all the oil Greenland, Greenland, what I’m dreaming of Greenland, Greenland, what’s not to love? I’m looking for a way for me to go down in history That icy island paradise might be my legacy So I told my staff to check it out, find out how and when Reach out to Denmark’s leader, Mette Frederiksen She said it’s not for sale, the idea was absurd Would have been an awesome deal if only she’d concurred She wouldn’t even talk about it… oh how depressin’ So I cancelled my visit just to teach her a lesson Greenland, Greenland, I was dreaming of Greenland, Greenland, what’s not to love? I thought I'd find a way for me to go down in history That icy island paradise… I guess it’s not to be ©2019 John Dillon Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter Comment by L.S.
