Lyrics
Your flight was smooth, I hope?
Oh, yes
Smoother than usual, I guess
Yes, it was very pleasant
We stopped in Hawaii for a day
And Guam to catch up on the time
It's easier that way
The Prime Minister knows about that
He is such a traveler
No, not I
But as a traveler come home for good to China
One for whom all travel is a penance now
I am most proud to welcome you
I am most proud to welcome you
