Israel and Palestine forming up a conga line
The Ayatollah and the Pope
Doing a limbo under a rope
Princess Di and the I.R.A

Forget the left , forget the right

Ah let's do it do it do it do it do it do it
Sikhs, Basques, Serbo-Croatian
Cambodians all join in the festivities
Hindu, Muslin, Jews, Christian
It doesn't matter what ever your proclivities
But let me make it very clear
Nobody goes hungry here

Margaret Thatcher parking cars
Fidel Castro passing out cigars
The C.I.A. and the K.G.B
Tye swapping secrets in a mango tree
I say it's crazy but you will see
We gonna make it reality
So let's get crazy you and me
Will jam to save humanity
