SINGER: Mister John

SONG:Potverdekke

Potverdekke! it�s great to be a belgian!
i�m not english, i�m not french and i�m not dutch,
i�m not spanish, portuguese or german,
i�m a belgian so thank you very much!
As i walk along the street, with my mayonnaise and frites,
you can tell i�m as happy as can be.
with my duvel in my hand then you must understand,
i�m a belgian so nothing worries me!
Potverdekke! it�s great to be a belgian!
i�m not english, i�m not french and i�m not dutch,
i�m not irish, italian or danish
i�m a belgian so thank you very much!
Without the belgians there would be no saxophone,
no tintin, captain haddock or poirot.
and you�ll excuse me if i�ve missed anybody off the list,
these are the only belgians that i know!
Potverdekke! it�s great to be a belgian!
i�m not english, i�m not french and i�m not dutch,
i�m not finnish, austrian or swedish
i�m a belgian so thank you very much!
Now the english egg and bacon�s not so bad,
especially since all the cows went mad.
but if they�ve never tasted mussels, on the grand place down in brussels,
it�s no wonder that they�re feeling very sad!
Potverdekke! it�s great to be a belgian!
i�m not english, i�m not french and i�m not dutch,
i�m not spanish, portuguese or german,
i�m a belgian so thank you very much!
I�m a belgian, i�m not irish, i�m not greek,
i don�t drink guiness or retsina, i drink kriek!
on the schelde or the meuse, you find me drinking geuze.
or leffe, or chimay, or lambic!
Potverdekke! it�s great to be a belgian!
i�m not english, i�m not french and i�m not dutch,
i�m not a luxemburger
i�m a belgian so thank you very much!
