Oh a sleeping drunkard up in central park
Or the lion hunter in the jungle dark
Or the Chinese dentist, or the British Queen
They all fit together in the same machineNice, nice, very nice
Nice, nice, very nice
So many people in the same deviceOh a whirling dervish and a dancing bear
Or a ginger rogers and a Fred Astaire
Or a teenage rocker or the girls in France
Yes, we all are partners in this cosmic danceNice, nice, very nice
Nice, nice, very nice
So many people in the same device
NiceI wanted all things to make sense
So we'd be happy instead of tenseOh a sleeping drunkard up in central park
Or the lion hunter in the jungle dark
Or the Chinese dentist or the British Queen
They all fit together in the same machineNice, nice, very nice
Nice, nice, very nice
So many people in the same device
So many people in the same device
Nice
