One Big World Songtext
von Ian North

One day, the chairman of the IMF
Was talking to the president of the World Bank
He said, "I got a new religion
It′s really gonna turn your crank"

"Called one big world
And what could be finer?
But you're gonna dig it, man
All the way to China"

Call it one big world
One big world
One big world

He said, "There′s funny people walking around
Wearing funny clothes
Funny ears, funny ideas
Some got a funny nose"

He said, "There's funny animals
Populating earth, sea and air
Many are unlicensed
They're just born out there"


One by one
Or two by two (two by two)
Put them in the ground
They won′t fit the zoo

And call it one big world (big world)
One big world (big world)
One big world

Take down all the trees
Make the hills all flat
So you can see where they′re going
You know where you're at

I want advertising space available, a lop on the moon
I want everybody singing the same pop tunes
I want one big world and all the same
Make a narrow wide while tame

And call it one big world (big world)
One big world (big world)
One big world

Make all the flowers tubes
Make all the animals steak
Make all the restaurants prefixed
Make all the music tame


Turn these catatombs to Wembleys
All around the world
Make the boys the men
And make the women girls

And call it one big world
One big world
One big world

(One big world)
