Switzerland
(from "On the Blank Generation")

Cheese, cheese, cheese, they send us holey cheese

always been a gyp

all these years Swissy’s been cheating us

boys, let’s take a trip!

Marching over to Switzerland where the trouble’s brewing

yodel ladies and yodel babies in native costume

cold as hell but you get to sleep with a blonde named Heidi

makes you cocoa and brushes her hair.

Clocks, clocks, clocks, they send us cuckoo clocks

tacky, cheap and dumb

happy nations have no history

let’s go give ‘em some!

Marching over to Switzerland and we won’t be back till

yodel ladies are planting gents in their window boxes

boys and girls with their rosy cheeks and their hats with feathers

bring you cocoa and braids of their hair

How can they appreciate what they’ve had all their lives?

It’s time they beat those Swissy plowshares into Army knives!

Marching over to Switzerland from the hallowed halls of

Montezuma and Tripoli to the shores of Zurich

yodel ladies you’ve liberated will send you home with

dreams of cocoa and long yellow hair

dreams of cocoa and long yellow hair

Marching over to Switzerland and we’re marching over to Switzerland!
