Matheson Bayley, Petra Mede, Måns Zelmerlöw - Story of ESC (That’s Eurovision) lyrics

With a collaborative mission
So much like the Olympics in a way





There were only seven countries
And one camera man



That's Eurovision!

It's the highlight of our year

Just look at my career!

You get to share the stage with me!
We're all excited, the fans united
From Reykjavík, Riga and Rome

Here is home!

Céline on a tractor, Conchita's beard
Pirates and penguins and puppets on strings
These are a few of my favourite things!

The singers come together like
Songbirds of a feather
For victory they hope and pray and beg




That's Eurovision!

To fail to live up to Riverdance!

Where else can you hear
Romansh and Luxembourgish sung?
We've had two songs with sign language
And three in made-up tongue
And Antillean Creole, Norwegian, Võro
Viennese neopolitan, Catalan, Udmurt
Montenegrin and Maltese

Crimean, Slovenian, Hebrew, Armenian
Arabic and Lithuanian


Samogitian and Turkish and Danish and French




That's Eurovision! It's your decision
Though not taking part is a crime

You'll be a hero of our time!

Cause rich in kit'sch and hammily is best!
This is My-rovision and His-rovision
And Her-rovision and Your-rovision
Bienvenue, välkomna, be our guest!
At the Eurovision Song Contest!
