they built the road over dumb fellows like you
they built the world as you know it
all the systems you traverse
they rode slipshod over all peasants like you
they were curious orange
they were curious oranj
they disliked papists
they rode
and their horses loved them, and their
horses loved them too
they were curious oranj
they freed the blacks too
built a church in one day man-amish
their clothes were cool
turned into Napoleon over and didn't know
they made Hitler laugh in pain -
they were curious oranj.
They invented birth control
they were ridiculed, invulnerable to -
cool

Part Two

brrrp ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
they were curious orange
they were curiou ornaj

sent missionary girls to arab states
and the sun-baked men did drool

pains in the arse man but they were
inquirin
brrp ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
they were: anti semitic

they were against it
they were the reformation spring,
and everybody in the world
turned reformation blue
they were positively deranged,
they were curious oranj
stuyvesant smoking
they were beyond Ooobenblief
efficient -prima to a man
they were curious orange.
