Harri Our Finnish Superstar
Harri
He’s a superstar
At least in our country
Slightly bald, blond and tall
With teeth like ornamental corn
A suit and tie for every day
For him an interview is child’s play
So little to lose and even less to fear
You see him everyday on tv here
The same exciting lies, of a peaceful childhood,
family ties
And alas when one expects an unfamiliar face
It’s Harri again all over the place
The weekly news is his personal muse
Once again: he grew up on a farm
Somewhere behind the ancient birch trees
They raised pigs and he milked the cows
But he’s a superstar now
At least in our country
He’s a superstar
At least in our country
Slightly bald, blond and tall
With teeth like ornamental corn
A suit and tie for every day
For him an interview is child’s play
So little to lose and even less to fear
You see him everyday on tv here
The same exciting lies, of a peaceful childhood,
family ties
And alas when one expects an unfamiliar face
It’s Harri again all over the place
The weekly news is his personal muse
Once again: he grew up on a farm
Somewhere behind the ancient birch trees
They raised pigs and he milked the cows
But he’s a superstar now
At least in our country
