[Chorus]
Why do some countries names not match what they actually are?
Let's look at Iceland and Greenland's names and why they're bizarre
Iceland and Greenland are neighboring islands
Located between the Arctic and the Atlantic oceans
Greenland is covered in ice and Iceland is mostly green
Why are the names switched and what does it mean?
[VERSE 1]
Early explorers were viking from the east
They would sail on large boats so their territory would increase
Sailing the shortеst distance from Scandinavia to Iceland
Would land the boat on thе southeast part of the island
Although Iceland is mostly green, the southeast coast has an ice cap
Called Vatnajokull, this is where the boat landed at
The Vikings always named a place after the first thing that they saw
Faced with so much ice, what else could the island be called?
[Chorus]
