...I LIKE CHINESE... by Monty Python --------------------................
*from 'Monty Python Sings' (1989)*
Intro: (Spoken)
GAdimD The world today seems absolutely crackers, GAdimD With nuclear bombs to blow us all sky high. G There are fools and idiots sitting on the trigger; A7D It's depressing and it's senseless and that's why...
Verse 1:
GA7D7 I like Chinese, I like Chinese; they only come up to your knees. GE7A7D7 Yet they're always friendly, and they're ready to please.
Verse 2:
GA7 I like Chinese, I like Chinese, D7 There's nine hundred million of them in the world today; GE7A7D7 You'd better learn to like them, that what's I say!
Chorus 1:
GA7D7 I like Chinese, I like Chinese; they come from a long way overseas. GE7A7D7 But they're cute and they're cuddly and they're ready to please.
Verse 3:
GA7 I like Chinese food; the waiters, never are rude. D7 Think of the many things, they've done to impress; GE7A7D7 There's Maoism, Taoism, I Ching, and Chess.
Chorus 2:
GA7D7 So I like Chinese, I like Chinese, I like their tiny little trees. GE7A7D7 Their Zen, their ping-pong, their Yin and Yang-ese.
Verse 4:
GA7 I like Chinese thought, the wisdom that Confucius taught. D7 If Darwin is anything to shout about; GE7A7D7 The Chinese will sur-vive us all, with-out any doubt.
Chorus 3:
GA7D7 I like Chinese, I like Chinese; they only come up to your knees. GE7A7D7 Yet they're wise and they're witty, and they're ready to please.
Chorus 4:
GA7D7 I like Chinese, I like Chinese; their food is guaranteed to please. GE7A7D7 A fourteen, a seven, a nine and ly-chees.
Chorus 5:
GA7D7 So I like Chinese, I like Chinese; I like their tiny little trees. GE7A7D7 Their Zen, their ping-pong, their Yin and Yang-ese.
