The few surviving samurai survey the battlefield Count the arms, the legs and heads, and then divide by five Drenched in blood, they move across the screen Do I need to point or do you see the one I mean?

The one in back The way he acts Is he reminding you Of anyone we know? Isn't he so Like certain people I could name?

Halfway through the 30 minutes, halfway 'round the world Here's the story on the genocidal overlord In the palace with her epaulettes Watch her little gestures when she lights the cigarette

Look at her, you Must see it too Is she reminding you Of anyone we know? Isn't she so Like certain people I could name?

Certain people I could name Certain people I could name

Mr. Nature Voice describes what anyone can see As the lizard eats a helpless creature on TV Music underscores the tragedy As the camera moves to close-up on the reptile's mouth

Why don't they say What we all think? Is it reminding them of anyone we know? Isn't it so like certain people? How could anybody miss The obvious and the uncanny and the clear resemblance? (That's so like them, that's so like them) Isn't it just like certain people I could name? (That's just so like them)
