[Verse 1]
Delirium is planned
On fixed days during the year
The local band is ready
Edwin plays guitar
Erik drums (go Erik on the drums!)
He does it well
[Verse 2]
In no time the entire town walks again in a line
Steady pace, spinning around on their axis (spinning on their axis!)
In a temporary tent (temporary tent!)
Where you know everyone inside (know everyone inside)
In the agreed month (agreed month!)
That we commit to (commit to)
(yeahhhh!)
[Chorus: Mannenkoor van Geweldig Lieve Mannеn)
The town, the hole, thе district, the region
The tree, the country, the dike, the stream
The street, the stable, the meadow, the avenue
I am from there
[Verse 3]
This has been planned for months (rah)
By the appropriate committee (yeah)
All of that seduction in the square (woo)
The entire town works on it together
[Verse 4]
My father lifts the tables
I paint flags yellow
My little sister sings a song
And the entire town is quiet
(la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la, la la)
{Interlude: Mannenkoor van Geweldig Lieve Mannen]
Hmmmmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
[Verse 5]
It has drained from me
How I was once raised in a town
That I frolicked there in the meadow
And how I blossomed there at a party
[Verse 6]
How the village touched everyone then
And we danced with arms interlocked
How there were shouts of joy
I've never experienced that in a city
[Chorus: Elmer, Mannenkoor van Geweldig Lieve Mannen]
The town, the hole, the district, the region
The tree, the country, the dike, the stream
The street, the stable, the meadow, the avenue
I am from there
The hedge, the woods, the yard, the square
The road, the clay, the church, so small
The birch, the oak, the border, the bridge
I want to go back there
[Bridge]
I want to go back there
I want to go back there
I want to go back there
I want to go back there
I want to go back there (back there)
[Outro]
The town, the hole, the district, the region
The tree, the country, the dike, the stream
The street, the stable, the meadow, the avenue
I am from there
The hedge, the woods, the yard, the square
The road, the clay, the church, so small
The birch, the oak, the border, the bridge
I want to go back there
The town, the hole, the district, the region
The tree, the country, the dike, the stream
The street, the stable, the meadow, the avenue
I am from there
The hedge, the woods, the yard, the square
The road, the clay, the church, so small
The birch, the oak, the border, the bridge
I want to go back there
