Ikea

Struggling with Ikea? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
Long ago in days of yore It all began with a god named Thor There were Vikings and boats And some plans for a furniture store It's not a bodega, it's not a mall And they sell things for apartments smaller than mine As if there were apartments smaller than mine Just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen Selling furniture for college kids and divorced men Everyone has a home But if you don't have a home you can buy one there So rent a car or take the bus Lay your cash down and put your trust In the land where the furniture folds to a much smaller size Billy the bookcase says hello And so does a table whose name is Ingo And the chair is a ladder-back birch but his friends call him Karl Just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen Selling furniture for college kids and divorced men Everyone has a home But if you don't have a home you can buy one there Plywood, brushed steel Meatballs, tasty Allen wrenches All of them for free All of them for me I'm sorry I said IKEA sucks I just bought a table for 60 bucks And a chair and a lamp And a shelf and some candles for you I was a doubter just like you 'Til I saw the American dream come true In New Jersey, they got a god-damned Swedish parade Just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen Selling furniture for college kids and divorced men Everyone has a home But if you don't have a home you can buy one there
