Ikea

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

Ikea (Ikea)

Just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen

Ikea (Ikea)

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"

So does the table whose name is Ingo

And the chair is a ladder-back birch, but his friends call him Karl

Ikea

Plywood, brushed steel

Ikea

Meatballs, tasty

Ikea

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

Till I saw the American dream come true

In New Jersey, they got a goddamned Swedish parade
