The Rotterdam The Hague Metropolitan Area, with a population of approximately 2.7 million, is the 12th-largest in the European Union and the most populous in the country. Located in the west of the Netherlands, The Hague is in the centre of the Haaglanden conurbation and lies at the southwest corner of the larger Randstad conurbation.
The Hague is the seat of the Dutch government and parliament, the Supreme Court, and the Council of State, but the city is not the capital of the Netherlands which constitutionally is Amsterdam. King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands plans to live at Huis ten Bosch and works at Noordeinde Palace in The Hague, together with Queen Máxima. Most foreign embassies in the Netherlands and 150 international organisations are located in the city, including the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court, which makes The Hague one of the major cities hosting the United Nations, along with New York, Geneva, Vienna, Rome and Addis Ababa.

Looking for something to fully embrace
Is how I think I will spend the rest of my days
If I stay in this place where
There is neither hope nor despair
I want to be a saint, I want to be brave
I have started by yelling at those who misbehave
There are moments when I want to be
Shackled and brought to The Hague
These are my ideals
If you don't like them, I might have to change them
My way is the right way if there's a lover in the end
The morals of my parents, they rang hollow after all
Nowadays I live just to appear a bit above my friends
Looking for something to fully embrace
Is how I think I will spend the rest of my days
If I stay here with you where
There is neither hope nor despair
If something happened
A riot on our square
I am not going to lie to you
I wouldn't be there
I would be passing out judgements
Condemning the clothes that they wear
These are my ideals
If you don't like them, I might have to change them
My way is the right way if there's a lover at the end
The morals of my parents, they rang hollow after all
And nowadays I live just to appear a bit above my
