Текст песни Randy Newman - Great Nations of Europe
Randy Newman - Great Nations of Europe слова песни
I read a book by Alfred Crosby called European Ecological Imperialism.
It sounds awful, but it was great. It was about how everywhere
Europeans went in the world, their diseases came along with them
and killed the native peoples. "They got TB and typhoid and athlete`s
foot/ Diphtheria and the flu." They got all of them. Except for
athlete`s foot - I had to contribute something other than what
was in the book.
I`ll admit to a certain anti-imperialism. I`ve got stock
and yet I root against the stock market every day. I just can`t
help myself. I`m constitutionally a Cubs fan. I`ve always rooted
for the underdogs, and usually they lose. You know why? `Cause
they`re the underdog.
