Tom Chapin - The Picnic of the World lyrics

All the nations sitting on a blanket Having a picnic, the Picnic of the World There's Holland and there's Poland And there's Iceland and there's Thailand There's England and there's Scotland and America (that's my land) There's Canada and Panama; there's Sweden and Aruba Korea, Tanzania, not to mention Greece and Cuba Mali, Bali, Mexico and Martinique Hungary, Turkey, India and Mozambique Haiti, Fiji, Israel and Senegal Kenya, Ghana, Jordan and Nepal All sitting on the same big blanket With the same big basket Full of sandwiches and deviled eggs We're all drinking from the same big thermos At the same big picnic It's the Picnic of the World There's Pakistan, Afghanistan, Malaya and Nigeria There's Luxembourg and Liechtenstein. Let's not forget Liberia There's Paraguay and Uruguay; there's Russia and there's Syria Sudan, Japan, Iraq, Iran and what about Algeria? Finland, Greenland, Switzerland and Vietnam Denmark, Norway, Swaziland and Suriname Chile, China, Guatemala, Trinidad Tonga, Togo, Portugal and Chad All sitting on the same big blanket With the same warm soda As the ants crawl on our sandwiches We're all swatting at the same mosquitoes Eating burned up burgers At the Picnic of the World There's Gambia and Zambia and Laos and Guyana There's Libya, Namibia, Andorra and Botswana Then there's Singapore and Ecuador, El Salvador and Lebanon Albania, Rumania. There's Burma and Bhutan All sitting on the same big blanket With the same big basket Full of problems and annoyances But all knowing at the deep down heart of it We're all a part of it The Picnic of the, Picnic of the, Picnic of the World
