I Like Chinese

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"I Like Chinese" is a song written and performed by Eric Idle of Monty Python. It was originally on Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album, and later included on the CD, Monty Python Sings. It is about a man who is not very happy with the rest of the world, except that he likes the Chinese. The 4th verse of the song is sung in Chinese.

In Australia the song is used by electrical retailer Bing Lee (as "I like Bing Lee").^[1]

I like Chinese, I like Chinese
They only come up to your knees
Yet they're always friendly and they're ready to please
