Yard Dogs Road Show — Bokonon lyrics

Lyrics

I wanted the world to make sense, so we’d all be happy instead of tense.
So I made some lies so they’d fit real nice, and I made this sad world Paradise.
Nice, very nice. Such different people in the same device.
Oh, a sleeping drunkard
Up in Central Park,
And a lion-hunter
In the jungle dark,
And a Chinese dentist,
And a British queen —
All fit together
In the same machine.
Nice, nice, very nice;
Nice, nice, very nice;
Nice, nice, very nice —
So many different people
In the same device.
