I believe that life is happy and death is sad.
I believe my mum was married to my dad.
I believe that things that aren't good tend to be bad.
I believe I believe.
I'm prepared to believe that Nixon wasn't a crook.
I'm prepared to believe love story is a readable book.
I believe that "The Dirty Dozen" weren't really dirty.
I believe that Lucille Ball is still under 30.
I believe Gerald Ford is clever that Bob Hope will live forever.
And that lever [lee-ver] is pronounced leh-ver.
And the best film ever made is "Saturday Night Feh-ver!"
I am prepared to say Col. Sanders can fry!
And that pigs and even DC-10s can fly!
I'm prepared to believe that things go better with Coke.
And that the Ayatollah tells a darn good knock-knock joke.
I believe that some folks can hear what Bugs Bunny is saying.
And that Salt Lake City is a real nice place to stay in.
I believe that J.R. really loves Sue Ellen I believe that things sound better when you're yelling!
And I believe that the devil is ready to repent but I can't believe Ronald Reagan is president!

I Love Bouncing
I love bouncing,boing, boing, boing
Up and down until I get a pain in me groin
I try to be happy and when it really counts
I turn into a rubber ball and bounce, bounce, bounce!
Bouncing down the club with this bird named Dennis,
I said to her in passing I was pretty good at tennis
She looked me up and down and said "It doesn't need announcing
Judging by the way your balls are bouncing!"
I get up in the morning and I bounce around the bed,
If me mum comes in to wake me up I bounce on her instead.
When I'm in the bathroom I bounce around the bath
But you want to try to shit and bounce that's really quite a laugh
Up and down until I get a pain in me groin
I try to be happy and when it really counts
I turn into a rubber ball and bounce, bounce, bounce!
Bouncing down the club with this bird named Dennis,
I said to her in passing I was pretty good at tennis
She looked me up and down and said "It doesn't need announcing
Judging by the way your balls are bouncing!"
I get up in the morning and I bounce around the bed,
If me mum comes in to wake me up I bounce on her instead.
When I'm in the bathroom I bounce around the bath
But you want to try to shit and bounce that's really quite a laugh
The Ronnie Reagan Song
(Ronald Reagan)
The winds are blowing cold tonight, along the Kansas trail,
The coyotes are howling, and there's varmints on my tail.
But when I'm feeling lonesome, like I was just knee high,
I sit me down beside the fire, alone beneath the sky:
Just me, my old guitar, and God!
(Chorus)
Just him, his old guitar, and God!
(Ronald Reagan)
But life ain't quite so simple now, like what it was before,
Well there's questions to be answered, there's strangers at the door.
But when I'm feeling crowded, by those little men from Mars,
I sit me down beside the fire, alone beneath the stars:
Just me, my old guitar...
(Nancy Reagan)
Oh yoo-hoo!
(Ronald Reagan)
...And Nancy! Heh-heh-heh!
(Chorus)
Just him! His old guitar! God! And Nancy!
(Ronald Reagan)
Abe Lincoln died of syphilis, and Jesus was a Jew,
The say God isn't married, I pray that that's not true.
But when the world's plum-crazy, I play a country tune, (Yee-Haa!)
I sit me down beside the fire, alone beneath the moon:
Just me, my old guitar...
(President's Aides)
Hah!
(Ronald Reagan)
And those turkeys! Heh-heh!
(Chorus)
Just him! His old guitar! God! Nancy! And the President's security, publicity, medical and catering team!
(Ronald Reagan)
I tried to do the best I could, I try to make a stand,
Folks keep saying things to me I just don't understand.
So when things get on top of me, and streets are full of cars,
I sit me down beside the fire, alone beneath the stars:
Just me, this old box! Heh! Oh, and Burke!
(Chorus)
Just him! His old guitar! God! Nancy! And the President's security, publicity, medical and catering team and the black briefcase that follows him around everywhere he goes so that he can launch a nuclear war!
(Ronald Reagan)
Oh, and I forgot the band!
(Band)
Woo-hoo!

Heavy Metal Song
I'm the seventh son of Satan but the devil threw me out
He said I was too evil when he heard me scream and shout
So I joined a heavy metal band and stormed the gates of hell
We signed a pact with Lucifer, he promised not to tell...
That we really come from Sheffield and our average age is over 35
He's Thor the Mighty Ramrod, but when he's with his mum, she calls him Clive
I've seen a naked woman - She was his sister, he was five
Now the Pentecostal Priestess was down upon her knees
She was lookin' at my love gun, I heard her saying "please"
Gonna tie you up in chains, babe, and whip you 'til you pout
He's always fancied Sharon, but he's scared to ask her out
Because we really come from Sheffield and in fact he's only five foot three
He always phones the neighbours when he thinks we might be on TV
I take a lot of drugs - They're for his asthma allergy
"Where's the catarrh solo?"
He said I was too evil when he heard me scream and shout

We're Scared Of Bob
(Tina Turner)
Once in a while, comes a call for you and me
(Michael Jackson)
It's a call to which we must respond
(Bob Dylan)
We may be stars but we got feelings too
(Mick Jagger)
And there's one thing on which we're all agreed
(Bruce Springsteen)
We're scared of Bob
(Tina Turner)
We're scared of Geldof
(Bruce Springsteen)
We are the ones he screams at like fools
(All)
So let's start singing
(David Bowie)
The cause is just that cannot be denied
(Tina Turner)
But does he have to make us so petrified
(Wrong numbers)
Some of us here you may not recognise
Because in truth we really don't belong
But when Bob called us up we didn't have the guts
To tell him the number he dialled was wrong
(Bruce Springsteen)
We're scared of Bob
(All)
We're scared of Geldof
(Bruce Springsteen)
We're scared that if we try to turn him down we'd all get yelled at
(Cyndi Lauper)
Of course I'm nervous and you'd be jumpy too
If Bob had had a word with you
(All)
We're scared of Bob that's why we're singing
(Madonna & Prince)
We get the jitters everytime we hear the phone start ringing
(All)
We're scared of Bob we're really frightened,
And when we hear that Irish voice our sphincters all get tightened

I've Never Met A Nice South African
(Traveller)
I've travelled this old world of ours from Barnsley to Peru,
I've had sunstroke in the arctic and a swim in Timbuktu,
I've seen unicorns in Burma and a Yeti in Nepal,
And I've danced with ten-foot pygmies in a Montezuma hall,
I've met the King of China and a working Yorkshire miner,
But I've never met a nice South African!
(Chorus)
No he's never met a nice South African,
And that's not bloody surprising man,
'Cause we're a bunch of arrogant bastards who hate black people!
(Traveller)
I once got served in Woolies after less than four week's wait,
I had lunch with Rowan Atkinson when he paid and wasn't late,
I know a public swimming bath where they don't piss in the pool,
I know a guy who got a job straight after leaving school,
I've met a normal merman and a fairly modest German,
But I've never met a nice South African!
(Chorus)
No he's never met a nice South African,
And that's not bloody surprising man,
'Cause we're a bunch of talentless murderers who smell like baboons!
(Traveller)
I've had a Close Encounter of the Twenty-Second Kind,
That's when an alien spaceship disappears up your behind,
I got directory enquiries after less than forty rings,
I've even heard a decent song by Paul McCartney's Wings,
I've seen a flying pig in a quite convincing wig,
But I've never met a nice South African!
(Chorus)
No he's never met a nice South African,
And that's not bloody surprising man,
'Cause we're a bunch of ignorant loudmouths with no sense of humour!
(Traveller)
I've met the Loch Ness Monster and he looks like Fred Astaire,
At the BBC in London he's the Chief Commissionaire,
I know a place in Glasgow which is rife with daffodillies,
I met a man in Kathmandu who claimed to have two willies,
I've had a nice pot noodle, but I've never had a poodle,
And I've never met a nice South African!
(Chorus)
No he's never met a nice South African,
And that's not bloody surprising man,
Because we've never met one either,
Except for Breyten Breytenbach and he's emigrated to Paris...
Yes he's quite a nice South African,
And he's hardly ever killed anyone,
And he's not smelly at all, that's why they put him prison!

The Chicken Song
Its the time of year now that Spring is in the air
When those two wet gits with their girly curly hair
Make another song for moronic holidays
That nauseate in a million different ways
From the shores of Spain to the coast of Southern France
No matter where you hide you just can't escape this dance
Hold a chicken in the air stick a deckchair up your nose
Buy a jumbo jet and then bury all your clothes
Paint your left knee green then extract your wisdom teeth
Form a string quartet and pretend your name is Keith
Skin yourself alive learn to speak Arapahoe
Climb inside a dog and behead an eskimo
Eat a Renault Four with salami in your ears
Casserole your gran disembowel yourself with spears
The disco is vibrating the sound is loud and grating its truly nauseating let's do the dance again
Hold a chicken in the air stick a deckchair up your nose
You'll hear this song in the holiday discos and there's no escape in the clubs or in the bars
You would hear this song if you holidayed in Mars
Skin yourself alive learn to speak Arapahoe
Climb inside a dog and behead an eskimo
Now you've heard it once your brain will spring a leak
And though you hate this song you'll be humming it for weeks
Hold a chicken in the air stick a deckchair up your nose
Buy a jumbo jet and then bury all your clothes
When those two wet gits with their girly curly hair
Make another song for moronic holidays
That nauseate in a million different ways
From the shores of Spain to the coast of Southern France
No matter where you hide you just can't escape this dance
Hold a chicken in the air stick a deckchair up your nose
Buy a jumbo jet and then bury all your clothes
Paint your left knee green then extract your wisdom teeth
Form a string quartet and pretend your name is Keith
Skin yourself alive learn to speak Arapahoe
Climb inside a dog and behead an eskimo
Eat a Renault Four with salami in your ears

September Song
When I was a young man courting the girls I played me a waiting game
If a maid refused me with tossing curls I'd let the old Earth make a couple of whirls
While I plied her with tears in lieu of pearls and as time came around she came my way
As time came around, she came
When you meet with the young girls early in the Spring
You court them in song and rhyme they answer with words and a clover ring
But if you could examine the goods they bring
They have little to offer but the songs they sing
And the plentiful waste of time of day a plentiful waste of time
It's a long, long while from May to December but the days grow short when you reach September
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame one hasn't got time for the waiting game
The days dwindle down to a precious few September, November
And these few precious days I'll spend with you these precious days I'll spend with you
If a maid refused me with tossing curls I'd let the old Earth make a couple of whirls
While I plied her with tears in lieu of pearls and as time came around she came my way
As time came around, she came
When you meet with the young girls early in the Spring
You court them in song and rhyme they answer with words and a clover ring
But if you could examine the goods they bring
They have little to offer but the songs they sing
And the plentiful waste of time of day a plentiful waste of time
It's a long, long while from May to December but the days grow short when you reach September
When the autumn weather turns the leaves to flame one hasn't got time for the waiting game
The days dwindle down to a precious few September, November
And these few precious days I'll spend with you these precious days I'll spend with you
As Time Goes By
You must remember this:
A kiss is still a kiss a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply as time goes by.
And when two lovers woo they still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely no matter what the future brings as time goes by.
Moonlight and love songs: never out of date hearts full of passion, jealousy and hate.
Woman needs man, and man must have his mate that no one can deny.
It's still the same old story a fight for love and glory a case of do-or-die.
The world will always welcome lovers as time goes by.
A kiss is still a kiss a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply as time goes by.
And when two lovers woo they still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely no matter what the future brings as time goes by.

Tiny Machine
I look in my favourite book but there's nothing to tell me a story
And cling to my mother's arms just so they can't take me away
My tiny machine My tiny machine
Down deep down there's much more than a burst of breath
Sometimes you cry and you wonder why you need to beat the rest
I've loved you since I knew what it meant
But to think of it now I'll love you till I'm dead
My tiny machine My tiny machine
They say that they love me in heaven they say that they'll be waiting for me
They say that they love me in heaven but I can't take a look just to see
I look in my favourite book but there's nothing to tell me a story
And cling to my mother's arms just so they can't take me away
My tiny machine My tiny machine

Bucky O'Hare
In another dimension, another time and space, a parallel universe is falling on its face.
From out of the chaos, who else would it be, but the animal adventurers of S.P.A.C.E..
Bucky! Captain Bucky 'O'Hare. Mutants and aliens and toads beware.
If you're looking for adventure, well, this is it. With Jenny, Dead-Eye, Binky and Willy DuWitt.
Bucky! Captain Bucky O'Hare.
Andy Phibian speaking: And now an update on Bucky O'Hare and the Toad Wars.
In the Battle for the Aniverse, you don't know what's next.
You only know amphibians have made it complex.
If you check out your scanner and the evil that it bodes,
There's only one course of action: Let's croak us some toads.
Bucky! Captain Bucky O'Hare. He goes where no ordinary rabbit would dare.
If the Righteous Indignation has suffered a hit and the photon accelerator is broken a bit
And you're losing and mind and you're having a fit, get the funky fresh rabbit who can take care of it.
Bucky! Captain Bucky O'Hare. You said Bucky? I said Bucky. Bucky O'Hare!

Samurai Pizza Cats they're fighting crime all over town!
Four... Three... Two... One...

And if you want the full effects go eat a pizza pie!

Uzun İnce Bir Yoldayım
I'm on a long narrow road I am going day and night
I have no clue what kind of condition I am in I am going day and night
As soon as I was born I started walking at the same time
Two doored inns I am going day and night
Even in my sleep I am walking I am trying to find a reason to stay
I see everyone constantly leaving I am going day and night
Forty nine years on these roads the flat mountains in the desert
I have fallen into the hands of homesickness I am going day and night
Deep thoughts until I see the distant
The amount of minutes on one road I am going day and night
Veysel is in a confused condition sometimes crying sometimes gone
To reach the end I am going day and night
Uskudara
When going to Uskudar a rain occurs
The coat of my clerk is long his heels are covered in mud
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other
A lame jacket will look great in my clerk
When going to Uskudar , the grocer around the corner pencil in hand, had its accounts
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other a starched shirt also go to rob my clerk
In the hands of my clerk , a canary cage the fez my cleric is too small for him
The coat of my clerk is long his heels are covered in mud
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other
A lame jacket will look great in my clerk
When going to Uskudar , the grocer around the corner pencil in hand, had its accounts
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other a starched shirt also go to rob my clerk
In the hands of my clerk , a canary cage the fez my cleric is too small for him
The cleric is willing, he will marry
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other a starched shirt also go to rob my clerk
When going to Uskudar I found a handkerchief I filled out the handkerchief loukoums
When looking for my clerk, I found by my side
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other a fragrant shirt also go to rob my clerk
The clerk walks arm in arm the words of my clerk move me
The letters of my clerc are in my pockets
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other a starched shirt also go to rob my clerk
When I going to Uskudar my bundle caught fire my cord is pulled my watch fell
The womanizing Uskudar are chasing me
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other a starched shirt also go to rob my clerk
The boats from Uskudar in Istanbul
My clerk is sitting he dissects hazelnuts in his dream the clerk about me aloud
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other a starched shirt also go to rob my clerk
The clerk is mine and I am his will mingle other a starched shirt also go to rob my clerk
When going to Uskudar I found a handkerchief I filled out the handkerchief loukoums

Lucifer The Prophecy
I am who through the gales dark flame Divine spreads with the hollow northern bell's deaf agony
Who through dark mountains lights the red dawn's shine fro' sparks of pain and star of lethargy
I king of comets yet swirls my spirit violent like desert dust a pyramid of wind
I storm of thunders yet more than grave I'm silent hiding my tombs' morbidity within
I rainbow abyss - yet would bewail my sorrow like chilly winds play withered reed on lakes
I glow of aethnas yet through the miry plains mourning and dull as funeral I follow
The oceans play their harps swirl fires of Paradise make the Sun
My enemy the Sun praise God and rise
Who through dark mountains lights the red dawn's shine fro' sparks of pain and star of lethargy
I king of comets yet swirls my spirit violent like desert dust a pyramid of wind

I glow of aethnas yet through the miry plains mourning and dull as funeral I follow

Let's Call The Whole Thing Off
Things have come to a pretty pass our romance is growing flat
For you like this and the other while I go for this and that
Goodness knows what the end will be I don't know where I'm at
It looks as if we two will never be one something must be done
You say either and I say either You say neither and I say neither
Either, either, neither, neither let's call the whole thing off
You like potato and I like potahto You like tomato and I like tomahto
Potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto let's call the whole thing off
But if we call the whole thing off then we must part
And if we ever part, then that might break my heart
So if you like pajamas and I like pajamas I'll wear pajamas and give up pajamas
For we know we need each other so we better call the whole thing off
Let's call the whole thing off
You say laughter and I say laughter You say after and I say after
Laughter, laughter, after, after let's call the whole thing off
You like vanilla and I like vanilla You sarsaparilla, and I sarsaparilla
Vanilla, vanella, chocolate, strawberry let's call the whole thing off
But if we call the whole thing off, then we must part
And if we ever part, then that might break my heart
So if you go for oysters and I go for ersters I'll order oysters and cancel the ersters
For we know we need each other so we better call the calling off off
Let's call the whole thing off
I say father, and you say pater I saw mother and you say mater
Pater, mater, uncle, auntie let's call the whole thing off
I like bananas and you like bananas I say Havana and I get Havannah
Bananas, banahnahs, Havana, Havannah go your way, I'll go mine
So if I go for scallops and you go for lobsters so, all right, no contest, we'll order lobster

Paris Will Always Be Paris
For all this nailing as a precaution transoms to our windows
Giving our shop windows and even the wheels of our cars a coat of blue
Removing paintings from our museums turning the Champs Elysees upside down
Swaddling with beaten earth all the beauties of our statues
Veiling our street lamps at sundown plunging the City of Light into darkness
Paris will always be Paris the most beautiful city in the world
For all the deep darkness around Her sparkle cannot be dulled
Paris will always be Paris the more you subdue her lights
The more you see her courage shine the more you see her wit sparkle
Paris will always be Paris
So that everyone may get used to their noise
You might well play hooters at night
And force us to clown around
While in pyjamas in our cellars
No matter how many decrees
Will cut off our water and even our jazz
Impose gas masks on us
Or do four-square-only crossword puzzles
Make it compulsory for all of us at home
To go to bed at eleven sharp
Paris will always be Paris
The most beautiful city in the world
And when restrictions abound
She gently comes to terms with them
Paris will always be Paris
You might ration her petrol
You won’t lessen her confidence
Her good mood or her spirit
Paris will always be Paris
Even though, upon my word, since last October
Dresses have turned a lot more sober
With fewer flowers and fewer aigrettes
And colours much more subdued
Even though gala dinners have done with
Chinchillas and ermines
Decent jewelry has been conspicuous
Mainly by its absence
And beauty is less showy
Less cheeky less provocative
Paris will always be Paris
The most beautiful city in the world
Even when cannons roar in the distance
Her dress is all the prettier
Paris will always be Paris
You can restrict her expenses
Her distinction her elegance
Become all the more priceless
Paris will always be Paris

My Friend The Rose
A lifetime comes and goes and as my friend the rose said only yesterday
“This morning I was born and baptised in the dawn
I flowered in the dew and life was fresh and new
The sun shone through the cold
And through the day I grew, by night-time I was old”
“At least there’s never been
No, you have never seen, a rose more bright and gay”
A lifetime comes and goes
And as my friend the rose said only yesterday
“The good lord smiled on me, so why then should it be
I feel I’m falling now, oh yes, I’m falling now
My heart no-one can save
My head begins to bow, my feet are in the grave”
The rose God smiled upon
Tomorrow will be gone, forever gone away
A lifetime comes and goes and so my friend the rose was dead at break of day
The moon is shining bright and in my dreams tonight
Beneath the starlit sky, my friend the rose goes by
He has seen my dreams I see
A soul that wouldn’t die, still watching over me
Whatever fortune brings
I’ll hope for better things or life will just be grey
“A lifetime comes and goes”
That’s what my friend the rose said only yesterday.

All The Boys And Girls
All the boys and girls my age walk down the street in pairs
All the boys and girls my age know well what it means to be happy
Eyes in eyes, and hand in hand they fall in love without fear of tomorrow
Yes, but I, I walk the streets alone, the lost soul
Yes, but I, I am alone, because nobody loves me
My days are like my nights in all respects
No joy and such trouble nobody whispers "I love you" in my ear
All the boys and girls my age make projects for the future
All the boys and girls my age know very well what love means
Eyes in eyes, and hand in hand they fall in love without fear of tomorrow
Yes, but I, I walk the streets alone, the lost soul
Yes, but I, I am alone, because nobody loves me
My days are like my nights in all respects
No joy and such trouble when will the sun shine for me?
Like the boys and girls my age will I soon know what love is?
Like the boys and girls my age I wonder when the day comes
Or the eyes in eyes, hand in hand I will have the happy heart without fear of tomorrow
The day that I will no longer be a lost soul
The day that I, too, will get someone who loves me
All the boys and girls my age know well what it means to be happy
Eyes in eyes, and hand in hand they fall in love without fear of tomorrow
Yes, but I, I walk the streets alone, the lost soul

My Baby Just Cares For Me
My baby don't care for shows My baby don't care for clothes My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for cars and races My baby don't care for high-tone places
Liz Taylor is not his style and even Lana Turner's smile is something he can't see
My baby don't care who knows My baby just cares for me
Baby, my baby don't care for shows and he don't even care for clothes He cares for me
My baby don't care For cars and races My baby don't care for He don't care for high-tone places
Liz Taylor is not his style and even Liberace's smile is something he can't see
Is something he can't see I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for My baby just cares for My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for cars and races My baby don't care for high-tone places
Liz Taylor is not his style and even Lana Turner's smile is something he can't see
My baby don't care who knows My baby just cares for me
Baby, my baby don't care for shows and he don't even care for clothes He cares for me
My baby don't care For cars and races My baby don't care for He don't care for high-tone places
Liz Taylor is not his style and even Liberace's smile is something he can't see
Is something he can't see I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for My baby just cares for My baby just cares for me
Ne Me Quitte Pas
Don't leave me
We must forget
All can be forgotten
That has already passed away
Forget the time
Of misunderstandings
And the time lost
Trying to know "how"
Forget those hours
That sometimes kill
With slaps of "why"
The heart of happiness
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
I will give to you
Pearls made of rain
From countries
Where it never rains
I will work the land
All my life and beyond
To cover your body
With gold and with light
I will make a land
Where love will be king
Where love will be law
Where you will be queen
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
I will invent, for you
Fanciful words
That you'll understand
I will tell you
About those lovers
Who have twice seen
Their hearts set ablaze
I will tell you
The story of the king
Who died of not having
Ever met you
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
We've often seen
Fire flowing again
From an ancient volcano
Considered too old
It's said that there are
Fire-scorched lands
That yield more wheat
Than the best April
And when evening comes
With a burning sky
The red and the black--
Are they not joined together?
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
I won't cry anymore
I won't talk anymore
I will hide over there
To watch you
Dance and smile
And to hear you
Sing and then laugh
Let me become
The shadow of your shadow
The shadow of your hand
The shadow of your dog
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me
We must forget
All can be forgotten
That has already passed away
Forget the time
Of misunderstandings
And the time lost
Trying to know "how"
Forget those hours
That sometimes kill
With slaps of "why"

Don't leave me
Don't leave me
Don't leave me

Under the Sun, Exactly
A precise point under the Tropic of Capricorn or of Cancer
Since then, I've forgotten which one under the sun, exactly.
Not by the side, not "anywhere" under the sun, under the sun
Exactly, right underneath.
In what country, in what district was it on the sea coast
Since then, I've forgotten which under the sun, exactly.
Not by the side, not "anywhere" under the sun, under the sun
Exactly, right underneath.
Was it New Mexico towards Cape Horn
Towards Cape Verde was it on an archipelago?
Under the sun, exactly. not next to it, not "anywhere"
Under the sun, under the sun exactly, right underneath.
Surely it must be an erotic dream that I dream with my eyes open
However, what if it was real under the sun, exactly.
Not by the side, not "anywhere" under the sun, under the sun
Exactly, right underneath.
