Текст песни: Bokonon + перевод

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.
