|
| I don’t think you know much about us
|
| Except, of course, our famous Lichtenburg cheese
|
| I know very well you enjoy it
|
| And we would enjoy it too
|
| But we can’t afford it for we must have money
|
| And so we send it to you
|
| But Lichtenburg won’t be offended
|
| We’ll manage to stay alive
|
| We’re not very touchy
|
| This quaint little duchy
|
| That somehow seems to survive
|
| Too small to be a city
|
| Too big to be a town
|
| Too poor to have an army
|
| And too easy to knock down
|
| Too little to sell across the seas
|
| Babies and cheese are our main industries
|
| Too slow to please the young folk
|
| Too fast to please the old
|
| Too many who have copper pennies
|
| Too few who have gold
|
| But somehow we manage to play the game
|
| While the other lands keep changing hands
|
| Old Lichtenburg stays the same |
