...I LIKE CHINESE... by Monty Python
--------------------................

*from 'Monty Python Sings' (1989)*


Intro:

(Spoken):

                            
The world today seems absolutely crackers,
                                 
With nuclear bombs to blow us all sky high.
          
There are fools and idiots sitting on the trigger;
                                            
It's depressing and it's senseless and that's why...

Verse 1:

                                   
 I like Chinese, I like Chinese; they only come up to your knees.
                                             
Yet they're always friendly, and they're ready to please.

Verse 2:

                
 I like Chinese, I like Chinese,
        
There's nine hundred million of them in the world today;
                                          
You'd better learn to like them, that what's I say!

Chorus 1: 

                                   
 I like Chinese, I like Chinese; they come from a long way overseas.
                                                    
But they're cute and they're cuddly and they're ready to please.

Verse 3:

                         
 I like Chinese food; the waiters, never are rude.

 Think of the many things, they've done to impress;
                                
There's Maoism, Taoism, I Ching, and Chess.

Chorus 2:

                                  
So I like Chinese, I like Chinese, I like their tiny little trees.
                                          
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their Yin and Yang-ese.

Verse 4:

                            
 I like Chinese thought, the wisdom that Confucious taught.
   
If Darwin is anything to shout about;
                                          
The Chinese will sur-vive us all, with-out any doubt.

Chorus 3:

                                   
 I like Chinese, I like Chinese; they only come up to your knees.
                                                    
Yet they're wise and they're witty, and they're ready to please.

Chorus 4:

                                    
 I like Chinese, I like Chinese; their food is guaranteed to please.
                              
A fourteen, a seven, a nine and ly-chees.

Chorus 5:

                                  
So I like Chinese, I like Chinese; I like their tiny little trees.
                                          
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their Yin and Yang-ese.

Chorus 6:

                
 I like Chinese, I like Chinese...
