Take a boat, take a plane 
Go to London, go to Spain 
Take a train from Amsterdam to Monaco 
Take a loved one if you think 
They enjoy things that stink 
Cause everything is different over there 

When you're in Belgium you can eat 
A lot of mayonnaise with your frites 
And no one will say hey that's too much mayonnaise 
Enjoy a German sausage hall 
Eat an Italian meatball 
But I hope you don't want a Twinkie 
Because they don't have Hostess Twinkies over there 

Over there you'll never feel at ease 
Cause there's not much soap and there's too much cheese 
And everyone wears clogs and rides on trains 
Over there they'll make you regret that you ever 
Saved their asses in World War II 
Don't make me go over there 

Cause I enjoy my freedom here 
And I enjoy light-colored beer 
I like to take showers 
And I like to brush my teeth every day 
Twice a day 

They say that there's a place in France 
Where the naked ladies dance 
You can find it if you ask around 
And there's a hole there in the wall 
Where the men can see it all 
But the men don't care 
Because they chew their underwear 
And the underwear they chew costs a dollar ninety-two 
And the men go around with their ding dongs hanging down 

Over there you'll never feel at ease 
Cause there's not much soap and there's too much cheese 
And everyone wears clogs and rides on trains 
Over there they'll make you regret that you ever 
Saved their asses in World War II 
Don't make me go over there 
No don't make me go over there 
Don't make me go over there
