I'm here sitting in the wreck of Europe With a map of Europe Spread out in a hall of Versailles And every single nationality and principality have come for a piece of the pie I'm sitting in the wreck of Europe With a map of Europe And the lines and the borders are gone We've got to do this jigsaw puzzle It's an awful muddle But somehow we've got to go on Lawrence of Arabia is waiting in the wings He's got some Arab sheikhs and kings And we're in debt to them somehow Lawrence of Arabia has got this perfect vision Gonna sell him down the river There's no time for him now I think I'm gonna take a piece of Russia And a Piece of Germany And give them to Poland again I'll put together Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia And hope that is how they'll remain Then I'll take a bit of Turkey Then a lot of Turkey This is all quite a heady affair There's Persia and Iraq to pick up And there's Churchill's hiccup And we can't leave it up in the air Woodrow Wilson waves his fourteen points around And says "The time to act is now Won't get this opportunity again" Woodrow Wilson has his fourteen points But Clemenceau turns to Lloyd George And says "You know that God himself had only ten" Today I'm carried by a league of notions (It's a league of notions) By a league of notions I don't think I quite understand (I don't think I understand) I only know from this commotion (From this commotion) There's a chance that we could turn The world in the palm of our hands (We can turn the world in the palm of our hands) Voices in the corridors of power Candles burning hour by hour Still you know that to the victors go the spoils Such a great responsibility to make it fair And there must be some reparations now And don't forget the oil Today I'm carried by a league of notions (It's a league of notions) By a league of notions I don't think I quite understand (I don't think I understand) I only know from this commotion (From this commotion) There's a chance that we could turn The world in the palm of our hands (We can turn the world in the palm of our hands) Pax vobiscum Wo-Oh, Pax vobiscum
