I shall never play the Dane 
No, I shall never play the Dane 
I shall never lay me down on Jutland sands 
Nor shall I dine on honeyed bacon 
Overlooking Copenhagen 
It's a shame 
Yes, it's a shame 
But I shall never play the Dane 

Don't judge me for my 
Quaint, provincial little ways 
I am not an immigrant by choice 
Remember I 
Walked with gods 
In my land 
But in this German sailor bar 
I can scarcely hear a thing 
Through the siren call of diesel oil 
And screaming solar winds 
Where the years 
Fall through your fingers 
Just like sand 
Like sand 

So I shall never play the Dane 
No, I shall never play the Dane 
Sweet Polonius will never taste my blade 
And God knows how much he's hurting 
Turning grey behind his curtain 
All in vain 
All in vain 
For I shall never play the Dane 

It's written through us 
Just like sticks of Blackpool dynamite 
We are all still children of the north
Articulate 
And passionate 
Soulful as the permafrost is deep 
But Death grins at the living 
From the corner of the bar 
Death dances to the jukebox 
And she drives a Swedish car 
And me and Her 
We've an appointment 
We must keep 

So I shall never play the Dane 
No, I shall never play the Dane 
I can only sit and nurse my Danish blues 
For to rampage like a Viking 
May have been quite to my liking 
It's a pain 
Yes, it's a pain 
That I shall never play the Dane 

I shall never play the Dane 
No I shall never play the Dane 
I shall never haunt the battlements of dawn 
Or see my ghostly father staring 
Through the mists of Elsinore there 
In the rain 
The pouring rain 
No, I shall never play the Dane 

In the rain 
The pouring rain 
No, I shall never play the Dane 
It's a shame 
Such a shame 
But I shall never play the Dane 

And there ain't anything you can name 
That is anything like a Dane
