Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Gray hair, glasses
Suitcase
Humble, clever
And constantly working for peace
[Verse 2]
Uganda, Congo
And the Oslo treaty plan
Oh my God, what a plan
[Verse 3]
Not as famous as Gahr Stare
Not a daddy's boy like Jens
But when hand-grenades are flying
There's just one man you can trust
[Verse 4]
When there's war and all is hell
Send in Jan Egeland
The United Nations superhero man
[Verse 5]
Mad dictator with a gun
Send in Jan Egeland
Oh, how I wish
I was Jan Egeland
[Verse 6]
Blue eyes, firm hands
Nice legs
Clean shaved body
Drinkin' his protein shakes
Spray tan, skin cream
And buttocks like he was eighteen
He's a peacekeeping machine
[Verse 7]
And he stares into the mirror
Flexing muscles in the night
And he says, "Boy, I think you're ready
To protect some human rights"
[Verse 8]
When there's war and all is hell
Bring in Jan Egeland
The United Nations superhero man
[Verse 9]
He plays golf with Kofi Annan
And looks at maps with George Cloon
Oh how I wish
That I was Jan Egeland
[Verse 10]
Egeland (Egeland)
Egeland (Egeland)
[Verse 11]
When he's sad, he goes to funerals
In unusually heavy rain
Large amounts of water in his face
But that doesn't hide his pain
He breaks down just like a homo
And starts crying like a girl
But I guess you can cry and still be a man
If your day job is saving the world
[Verse 12]
When there's war and all is hell
Send in Jan Egeland
He's a macho, muscle-pumping, crying god
[Verse 13]
If there's one man you should trust
It is the Janny boy
Oh, how I wish
That I was Jan Egeland
