Over There

Lyrics

Take a boat, take a plane
 Go to London, go to Spain
 Take a train from Amsterdam to Monaco
 Take a loved one if you think
 They enjoy things that stink
 'Cause everything is different over there
 When you're in Belgium, you can eat
 A lot of mayonnaise with your frites
 And no one will say, "Hey, that's too much mayonnaise"
 Enjoy a German sausage hall, eat an Italian meatball
 But I hope you don't want a Twinkie
 Because they don't have Hostess Twinkies over there
 Over there, you'll never feel at ease
 'Cause there's not much soap and there's too much cheese
 And everyone wears clogs and rides on trains
 Over there, they'll make you regret that you ever
 Saved their asses in World War II
 Don't make me go over there
 'Cause I enjoy my freedom here
 I enjoy light-colored beer
 I like to take showers
 And I like to brush my teeth, every day
 Twice a day
 They say that there's a place in France
 Where the naked ladies dance
 You can find it if you ask around
 And there's a hole there in the wall
 Where the men can see it all
 But the men don't care 'cause they chew their underwear
 The underwear they chew costs a dollar ninety-two
 The men go around
 With their ding dongs hanging down
 Over there, you'll never feel at ease
 'Cause there's not much soap and there's too much cheese
 And everyone wears clogs and rides on trains
 Over there, they'll make you regret that you ever
 Saved their asses in World War II
 Don't make me go over there
 No, don't make me go over there
 Don't make me go over there
