Intro: (Spoken)
The Gworld today seems Adimabsolutely Dcrackers,
With Gnuclear bombs to Adimblow us all sky Dhigh.
There are Gfools and idiots sitting on the trigger;
It's A7depressing and it's senseless and that's Dwhy...
Verse 1:
 GI like Chinese, A7I like Chinese; they D7only come up to your knees.
Yet they're Galways fE7riendly, and they're A7ready to D7please.
Verse 2:
 GI like Chinese, A7I like Chinese,
There's D7nine hundred million of them in the world today;
You'd Gbetter learn to E7like them, that A7what's I D7say!
Chorus 1: 
 GI like Chinese, A7I like Chinese; they D7come from a long way overseas.
But they're Gcute and they're E7cuddly and they're A7ready to D7please.
Verse 3:
 GI like Chinese food; the A7waiters, never are rude.
 D7Think of the many things, they've done to impress;
There's GMaoism, E7Taoism, A7I Ching, and D7Chess.
Chorus 2:
So GI like Chinese, A7I like Chinese, I D7like their tiny little trees.
Their GZen, their E7ping-pong, their A7Yin and Yang-D7ese.
Verse 4:
 GI like Chinese thought, the A7wisdom that Confucius taught.
If D7Darwin is anything to shout about;
The GChinese will sur-E7vive us all, with-A7out any D7doubt.

Yet they're Gwise and they're E7witty, and they're A7ready to D7please.

A Gfourteen, a E7seven, a A7nine and ly-D7chees.
Chorus 5:
So GI like Chinese, A7I like Chinese; I D7like their tiny little trees.
Their GZen, their E7ping-pong, their A7Yin and Yang-D7ese.
