Twelve Selves

[Intro]
Okay, okay, so this is a song about the problems in the Pacific — well, the French have given it up now, haven't they? They've stopped doing that stuff in the Pacific and they've moved down to just below South Africa where they're doin' the same thing
[Chorus]
Away, away, wa-hu wa-hu way
Away so wa-hu, he blow away
Away, away, wa-hu wa-hu way
Away so wa-hu, he blow away
Whee!
Why a kicky caca chez moi, hey?
Why a kicky kava, blow away?
Roto ruina, no okay
She goin' to blow away
Why a kicky caca chez moi, hey?
Why a kicky kava, blow away?
Roto ruina, no okay
She goin' to blow away
[Post-Chorus]
Away, away
[Verse 1]
Away, away, far across the sea
There is an island of luminous coral
It's radioactive, this land that you will never see
Forever poisoned, and here's the moral
[Verse 2]
With a bang and a crash and a what about the creatures?
What about the creatures of the sea?
With a bang and a crash and a what about the people
Livin' in paradise peacefully?
[Bridge]
If you wanna go for nuclear way
Why don't you drop it on the Champs-Élysées?
French person, think about the future
Think about you and me
If you wanna go for nuclear power
Why don't you drop it on the Eiffel Tower?
French person, think about the future
Think about you and me
'Bout you and me
'Bout you and me
[Chorus]
Away, away, wa-hu wa-hu way
Away so wa-hu, he blow away
Away, away, wa-hu wa-hu way
Away so wa-hu, he blow away
Whee!
Why a kicky caca chez moi, hey?
Why a kicky kava, blow away?
Roto ruina, no okay
She goin' to blow away
Why a kicky caca chez moi, hey?
Why a kicky kava, blow away?
Roto ruina, no okay
She goin' to blow away
[Post-Chorus]
Away, away
Away, away
Away, away
[Outro]
Wah dih diddy do dee diddy do do
