Oslo In The Summertime (Live in Norfolk, VA 2006)

[Verse 1]

Oslo in the summertime

Nobody can fall asleep

Staring out the window from my bed

At 4 A.M., the sun is up

Look, the sky is peppered with sea birds

And with crows all cackling

[Verse 2]

Up in treten Heimdalsgate, me and Nina making fun

Of footballers in Rudolf Nilsen Plass

I practice my Norwegian on poor befuddled waitresses

Who shake their heads completely at a loss

Oslo in the summertime

The streets are strangely quiet

Cause everyone's away on holiday

[Bridge]

Oslo in the summertimе

Oslo in the summertime

[Verse 3]

Oslo in thе summertime

Pakistani children play

Locked inside of the courtyard all day

Pretty people everywhere

Sun-lamp tans and flaxen hair

Just tell the American not to stare
