It's Not For Sale (2:36)
It’s Not for Sale

Up in the North Atlantic there’s a place that’s quite well known
Though not too many visit, even fewer call it home.
Subjects of the Danish Crown, an independent state,
But you can’t procure a nation or just monetize their fate
Chorus
It’s not for sale, It’s not for sale
You can throw a temper tantrum
You can rant and you can rail
But you can’t have everything you want
You’re not too big to fail
It’s not for sale, It’s not for sale
The Prime Minster of Denmark said, “This is quite absurd!
You cannot purchase Greenland, and that’s the final word.”
You called the woman “Nasty” ‘cause she would not do your bidding
People all around the world say “Man, is this guy kidding?”
Chorus
Now there is no fake truth, there is only fact or fiction
No bloviating blunderbuss can reconcile the friction
A Tweet is not a law, and no order can be given,
To make a people sell to you, the Country that they live in!
Chorus
It’s not for sale,It’s not for sale
Try Iceland…
It’s not for sale, It’s not for sale
