lirik lagu a dane was a dane – chuck brodsky
the gardens were tended, the animals fed even their blankets were tucked in their beds
nothing was broken, the walkways were swept
everything looked like it did when they left
the government stepped down, they firmly refused
to carry out the order to round up the jews
a dane was a dane, the law was the law
there’d be no jewish question in denmark at all
sweden was willing to take them all in
until it was safe to go back home again
from the time word of the plan was leaked
they would only have ’til the end of the week
no organization or chain of command
it was everybody just lending a hand
schools were closed and work shut down
people were moved to little harbor towns
chorus
they came for the ones who’d already gone
two p-ssenger ships they didn’t get on
after spending a week in the harbor waiting
slipped away from copenhagen
people were hidden in hospital beds
with bandages over their faces and heads
some were hidden in homes and in schools
in backyard sheds with the garden tools
row boats, fishing boats, dinghies, and yachts
took them the nine or ten miles across
the german patrols, they hadn’t a clue
right under their noses and back again too
chorus
they came for the ones who’d already gone
two p-ssenger ships they didn’t get on
after spending a week in the harbor waiting
slipped away from copenhagen
the crossings were made under cover of night
aiming for those far away lights
babies were drugged to keep them asleep
n-body spoke and n-body breathed
seven thousand danish people were saved
thanks to their neighbors decent and brave
when they got home the walkways were swept
everything looked like it did when they left
chorus
they came for the ones who’d already gone
two p-ssenger ships they didn’t get on
after spending a week in the harbor waiting
slipped away from copenhagen
