Semi 2

15) Withdraw

Austria 2005

Original title: Y Asi

 

You know the country no one’s liking
Not its music or its songs
You heard, yes you saw
Austrians sing quite poor

Its lack of points was inspiration
They had enough, it got too tough
They had no good friends
They went off in a huff

Their music scene’s much better
That’s what they claim, yeah right
Like it’s a kind of vendetta
They’re oh so underrated
Misunderstood they are
That’s what they vituperated

Withdraw, withdraw
Withdraw is what they’ll do because they’re sulky
No points, no points
Well, OK, just a few, but hardly bulky

They said that good old Europe’s dying
They said that good old Europe’s dead
A fact, it’s for sure,
They’ll dance and sing no more

They took one step and saw reflection
And said a word
That all humans count
Then yodelled their last verse

Their music scene’s much better
That’s what they claim, yeah right
Like it’s a kind of vendetta
They’re oh so underrated
Misunderstood they are
That’s what they vituperated

Withdraw, withdraw
Withdraw is what they’ll do because they’re sulky
No points, no points
Well, OK, just a few, but hardly bulky

Withdraw,
Withdraw is what they’ll do because they’re sulky
No points, no points
Well, OK, just a few, but hardly bulky

Withdraw, withdraw
Withdraw, withdraw
Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw, withdraw
Yodelee!
