Should you be spending an evening in the company of Swedes and alcohol, they might suddenly demand you sing. This is especially likely if it is midsummer, Easter, new years eve etc. To make sure you are ready and in tune (well, at least know the words), below are the words to 'Helan går' and Will Ferrell not singing it terribly well. Important point number 1 - you are supposed to drink the whole glass full down in one go Important point number 2 - if you need to be able to speak and/or stand up at any point afterwards, don't drink the whole glass full down in one go Important point number 3 - aquavit is extremely strong so you will cough the first few times, even if you sip it. Skål!
