On The Map

Lyrics:

I said it was impossible
But now it's highly probable
That wretched man's unstoppable
Be blown, now fancy that

He's bypassed Scandinavia
And passing through Romania
Where on earth is Romania?
(It's somewhere on the map)

That man is simply quite beyond belief
At least he's one of us, that's a relief
(Blah blah blah blah blablablah
Blah blah blah blah blablablah
Blah blah blah blah blablablah
He's somewhere on the map

He's on the map (He's on the map)
He's on the map (He's on the map)
He's on the map (He's on the map)
Somewhere on the map

They thought it inconceivable
But now it's quite believable
That man seems quite unbeatable
He's somewhere on the map

He's on the map (On the map)
He's on the map (On the map)
He's on the map (On the map)
Somewhere on the map

They say he's got a crew in tow
Oh really? Anyone I know?
Darkies, frogs[?], well I'll be blown
If so, I'll eat my hat

He's on the map (He's on the map)
He's on the map (He's on the map)
He's on the map (He's on the map)
He's somewhere on the map
