Living Next Door to a Viking
He stands with a spear in his doorway
From Sweden or Denmark or Norway
Iron helmet and beard
It’s just as I feared
I’m living next door to a Viking
He tells me he travels by longboat
Wears animal hide and a fur coat
His favourite drink
Is strong mead, I think
I’m living next door to a Viking
We welcomed him then he betrayed us
Insisting he's set to invade us
Since he first appeared
Things have got quite weird
I’m living next door to a Viking
He’s shining his shields every Sunday
And sharpening swords every Monday
A huge fan of Thor
And weapons and war
I’m living next door to a Viking
An expert on our Middle Ages
Throws tempers and tantrums and rages
Valhalla’s his aim
He’s fighting again!
I’m living next door to a Viking
