Walking the streets of Haarlem
Not that one, the other one
The one with two A’s
The Dutch one, Haarlem
Walking the streets of Haarlem
The one with two A’s, the Dutch one
I might go to the sauna
Hang out with naked men and women
Take showers, swim in hot pools
Sit in hot rooms with naked men and women
Naked and non-sexual
Naked and non-sexual
I like it, I think it’s good for me
I don’t do it enough so I’ll probably go
To the sauna, in Haarlem, the Dutch one
Will I see you in the street tonight
And when I see you, will I know you?
Walking the streets of Haarlem
I think of Van Goghs like Vincent
He shot himself in a field, sometime, someplace, and
Walking the streets of Haarlem
I think of Van Goghs like Theo
He made a film, something critical
Of the Koran, and they shot him
I guess sometimes it’s tough, it’s tough to be Dutch
But walking the streets of Haarlem
The one with two A’s, the Dutch one
It seems pretty good, right now
Will I see you in the street tonight
And when I see you, will I know you?
