I just thought since I have the time I would post the words (as best I can
remember them) to Randy Newman's "Drop the Big One"

No one likes us
I don't know why
We may not be perfect
But heaven knows we try
They don't respect us
so let's surprise them
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them.

Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot and Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one, there'll be no one left to blame us
We'll save Australia - don't wanna hurt no kangaroos
We'll build an all-American amusement park there
They got surfin' too

Boom goes London, and Boom Parie
More room for you and more room for me
And every city, the whole world 'round
Will just be another American town
Oh, how peaceful it will be
We'll set everybody free
You'll wear a Japanese kimono, babe
There'll be Italian shoes for me

They all hate us anyhow, so let's drop the Big One now
Let's drop the Big One now.
