Fly with me? (La, la, la-la) (Funny if you're prejudiced) One, two, three They're rioting in Africa *whistling* They're starving in Spain *whistling* There's hurricanes in Florida *whistling* And Texas needs rain *whistling* The whole world is festering with unhappy souls The French hate the Germans; the Germans hate the Poles Italians hate Yugoslavs; South Africans hate the Dutch (And I don't like anybody very much) But we can be tranquil and thankful and proud For man's been endowed with a mushroom-shaped cloud And we know for certain that some lovely day Someone will set the spark off, (and we will all be blown away) They're rioting in Africa *whistling* There's strife in Iran *whistling* What nature doesn't do to us *whistling* Will be done by our fellow man (Head for the border) That's not where we're going I can't hear your voice We learned that at a Marine recruiting station in San Franciso All the, uh, all the boys were singing it down there
