(In Scandinavia where Lagom is norm
and that is the way how we say:)

When you rather choose "Diet" than a "Big" pizza pie
That's the Lagom
when you drink one glass - fine, and not have too much wine
That's the Lagom
Not too much and not too little too, when the choice is yours to do
And you'll sing "Helan går"-a
But not too loud, just not to stand out, sing and not to shout
Not be a bore-a

When you could buy SUV but a Volvo's your car to be
That's the Lagom
when you don't over-dress but your wardrobe's not a mess
that's the Lagom
if you are blonde and blue-eyed, but your hair is not dyed
that's the Lagom
when your make-up is faint and not a full war-paint
that's the Lagom

When the sex you won't scorn but you do loathe the porn
that's the Lagom
when you just like to ski but not conspiciously
that's the Lagom
when your beer is Tuborg and having Bud feels just dork-
that's the Lagom!
When your choice fits the bill and is not overkill -
that's the Lagom

When you vote SDP and you dislike Commies
that's the Lagom
if your choice is Moderates and not some far right mates
that's the Lagom
When your government's the worth of trust, but you feel it is not a must
that's the Lagom
You are true Scandinavian if you can really understand
- that's the Lagom!
