Lyrics[]
Funny, you're a stranger who's come here
Come from another town
Funny, I'm a stranger myself here
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, you're a man who goes traveling
Rather than settling down
Funny, 'cause I'd love to go traveling
Small world, isn't it?
We have so much in common
It's a phenomenon
We could pool our resources
By joining forces from now on
Lucky, you're a man who likes children
That's an important sign
Lucky, I'm a woman with children
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, isn't it small and funny and fine?
We have so much in common
It's a phenomenon
We could pool our resources
By joining forces from now on
Lucky, you're a man who likes children
That's an important sign
Lucky, you're a woman with children
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, isn't it?
Isn't it?
Small, and funny
And fine
