Stuttering Duckling - Billie The Vision And The Dancers

Once upon a time we came from Denmark to Sweden to settle down

It felt bad in the beginning and it just got worse (So much worse)

And they were making fun of me and my Danish pronunciation

So I started stu-stu-stuttering

I tripped over my tongue and I dreamed about Denmark

(He dreamed about Denmark)

Yeah, I dreamed about Denmark

The beautiful streets of Copenhagen

And the home of H.C.

Andersen

A loving and warm hearted theory, but with a terrifying practice

I caught the devil in disguise, I could feel the indifference rise

I cursed my Swedish class mates, I put a spell on my Swedish teacher

She blindfolded her eyes and ears too when they were mocking me

I dreamed about Denmark

(He dreamed about Denmark)

Yeah, I dreamed about Denmark

The beautiful streets of Copenhagen

And the home of H.C.

Andersen

We got a new strict teacher after the summer of '84

And all the bullies sat properly and quiet

When the teacher came through the door

Suddenly I heard myself making this loud and annoying noise

And the teacher said «Are you retarded boy?»

I said «No, but maybe you are»

And I started dream about…

(He dreamed about Denmark)

Yeah, I dreamed about Denmark

The beautiful streets of Copenhagen

And the home of H.C.

Andersen

But I became the untouchable hero

And the mocking was history

And I got a girlfriend named Jennie

And now the crowd were following me

And I almost stopped stu-stuttering

And the Danish dreams were gone

Everything went from black and white to colour

But I kept dreaming on about Sweden

(He dreamed about Denmark)

No, I dreamed about Sweden

The beautiful streets of Stockholm

And the home of Astrid Lindgren
