A Comenius song, written for the occasion

Melody: The Beatles: With a little help from my friends

Now let us sing a Comenius-song

We are here to create some new friends

Lend me your arms and I´ll show you my world

And I promise it’s gonna be good

Oh I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm I am best with a little help from my friends

Mm going to try with a little help from my friends

 

What would you think if you lived around here

would you be just like us in this place

Lend us your ears and we'll sing you a song

and we'll try not to sing out of pace

Oh I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm I am best with a little help from my friends

Mm going to try with a little help from my friends

Chorus

 

We had fuuuun here in Denmark

We need Comenius-LOVE

Can we fiiiiind it in Denmark

Yes the big Comenius-LOVE

What will we do when our friends are away?

Would you please come and see us again?

Spanish, German and English as well

Are we soon gonna meet up again?

Oh we get by with a little smile from our friends

Mm we get high with a little smile from our friends

Mm gonna try with a little smile from our friends

What do we do to make young people vote?

(Do the young people worry at all?)

That is the problem we’re going to solve

(and we wonder what we might evolve?)

Oh I get by with a little help from my friends

Mm I am best with a little help from my friends

Mm going to try with a little help from my friends

Chorus

(Do you need anybody?)

I need somebody help

(Could it be anybody?)

I want somebody to vote

We had fuuuun here in Denmark

We need Comenius-LOVE

Can we fiiiiind it in Denmark

Yes the big Comenius-LOVE

The West Sea Round

Jeg går en tur til et hav, det gør jeg næsten hver daw. Jeg går en tur til et hav, og samler rav. Jeg går en tur til et hav, det gør jeg næsten hver daw. Jeg går en tur til et hav, og samler rav.

Åh, et vesterhav Åh, et vesterhav Åh, et vesterhav Åh, et vesterhav

Safe journey home
