Lyrics
I want to see the world Especially France I want to see them Frenchies sing and dance They got rhythms unlike any other culture And f**k boy, I really like their sodas I wanna see Japan To try all the dishes 'Cause I love eating fishes I’ve been to Germany But I ate Indian food I shoulda had a sausage or two I want to see the world, the world In all of its glory The museums, the mountains, the people, the towns I wanna hear every story I want to go to Normandy To respect the troops, they died for me and you I want to go to Belgium That’s where the Allies fought the Axis And wonder how that happened I’m off to Manhattan I want to go to Ground Zero And salute the fallen heroes I want to go to Memphis That’s where MLK got killed It doesn’t make sense to me still But I want to see the world, the world But I want the whole story And if it makes me cringe, and gasp, and gag Then I guess that that’s good for me I want to go to Samoa And ask them for real Do you want us occupying you still? I want to go to Honduras Because it just isn’t right We meddled in their elections several different times Guatemala to say sorry for the harm I’m sorry we exploited your farms I’d like to see Africa An unbelievable theft Occurred and we should never forget Oh you want to see the world? The world? But it is f**king awful And if you stare too hard Then you just might find the bottom of a bottle I want to see Auschwitz To try and comprehend how God let that happen to them I want to see Rwanda To pay my respects to the million people forced to death I’m off to Vietnam to see all the harm that we caused To try and make sense of myself involved To Cuba, to end the blockade f**king human lives are at stake I wanna see the world, the world Before I die before my heart stops beating Or I rip out my eyes I want to see the world, the world Or maybe I don’t Maybe I’m extremely ignorant And maybe I just won’t
