Soren Banjomus Lyrics

1. Skillema-dinke-dinke you Skillema-dinke-you
Listen to Soren Banjomus. For he is playing now.
Skillema-dinke-dinke you Skillema-dinke-you
Come and sing and dance with us, we think that you ought to
We are looking forward to Christmas eve, then the three will be lit
And we receive nice Christmas presents, oh, we are excited !
Skillema-dinke-dinke you Skillema-dinke-you
If only it was Christmas soon.

2. On the loft the pixie sits, him, you know who is so sweet
He is so full, because he has eaten a large dish of Christmas porridge;
Now he sits in the chair and he snores like a bear
And dreams of the presents he shall give to the town's children.
And Lurifax, his cat, who always is so naughty
It dreams so sweet of smoked herring with cream coating
Then it moves about and suddenly from the mouse hole's sound
A cheerful sound of a banjo-song.

3. Come along, said Soren Banjomus, they are both sleeping
Now we will make fun, WHOOPEE! The mice screamed and laughed
And out from the mouse hole, the big mice and the small meet
Yes, even the smallest mouse, who barely could walk
And Lurifax and pixiedad, they danced a waltz
And little Tim tied the pixie's beard in the pussycat's neck
Ans while they dragged cheese and Christmas delicacy away
Then they hummed this tune:
Skillema-dinke-dinke you Skillema-dinke-you
If only it was Christmas soon, cannot wait,
If only it was Christmas soon, cannot wait
