[Intro: Les Murray]
Antognoni, he had time to control it but he
Tried to knock it inside for Monelli
He was tightly marked
And it's Oriali now... Bertoni
Could be a one-two, yes it is! Good move, oh!
What a chance

[Verse 1: Humphrey B. Flaubert & Les Murray]
(Good looking cross, what a goal!)
The world is full of questions
They fill me with fear
What of our beginnings?
Why are we here?
(And he's got it this time, yes!)
Is there a purpose?
Is there a God?
But one question troubles me
Far more than this lot
(Almost comical, almost comical)

[Chorus: Humphrey B. Flaubert]
What nationality is Les Murray?
Wherefore hails his ancestry?
Whom does he call the mother country
When he phones home through OTC?
[Verse 2: Humphrey B. Flaubert & Les Murray]
(And he's as happy as Larry)
Everyone is searching
For the meaning of life
Religion and politics
Black versus white
(He's got it this time, yes!)
Karl Marx played on the left
And Ayn Rand played on the right
But there's a much bigger problem
It stops me sleeping at night
(Back across for Zaccarelli, oh!)

[Chorus: Humphrey B. Flaubert]
Oh, what nationality is Les Murray?
And wherefore hails his ancestry?
Whom does he call the mother country
When he phones home through OTC?

[Refrain: Humphrey B. Flaubert & Les Murray]
Les is more, more or less
Les is more, lest we forget
Les is more, but one regret
What is the origin of his descent?
(Roberto Galbiati, Roberto Galbiati
Roberto Galbiati, Roberto Galbiati
Roberto Galbiati, Roberto Galbiati
Ah, will he hit it?)
[Verse 3: Humphrey B. Flaubert & Les Murray]
Sweden? (No) Portugal? (No) Poland? (No) Iceland? (No)
New Zealand? (No) Canada? (No) Bolivia? (No) Israel? (No)
Yemen? (No) Ukraine? (No) Spain? (No) Monaco? (No)
France? (No)
(And he's got it this time, yes!
What a beauty!)

[Verse 4: Humphrey B. Flaubert]
Is he from Austria? Algeria? Bahrain?
Bangladesh or Barbados? Bulgaria? Cameroon?
Is he from Chad? Chile? China?
Germany? Greece? Great Britain?
Is he from Guatemala? Guam and Guyana?

[Verse 5: Humphrey B. Flaubert]
Les is more
Haiti? Burundi? Zimbabwe?
Les is more
Kampuchea? North Korea? Tanzania?
Les is more
Senegal? Paraguay? Trinidad? Tuvalu? Ecuador? Uruguay?
Les is more
Azerbaijan? Madagascar? Swaziland? Guadeloupe?

[Refrain: Humphrey B. Flaubert]
Les is more, more or less
Les is more, lest we forget
Les is more, my one regret
What is the origin of his descent?
[Outro: Humphrey B. Flaubert & Les Murray]
{speaking Hungarian}
And now a chance, oh!
And now a chance, oh!
And now a chance, oh!
Well, can you blame him?
Éljen Magyarország!
