It's NOT racist! It isn't stereotyping the Chinese, it's parodying the person that Eric Idle portrays singing the song - a certain type of parochial, ignorant northern Englishman who thinks he's being socially inclusive but is actually being spectacularly rude! Hence the remarks like 'you'd better learn to like them' and 'a 14, a 7, a 9 and lychees'. Bonsai trees aren't even Chinese, emphasising the portrayal of ignorance! The singer is the subject of the parody, not the Chinese! Comedy Genius!

I do not believe this was intended to have any racist overtones. The only people who could take offence at this are those ready and waiting and just itching to take offence at anything their politically correct bile. Remember, this was written in the 1970s, before the scourge of political correctness infected the planet.

Awesome. The second syllable of "goodbye" in Chinese is "jian", not "jien" - "zaijian."

Great lyrics with apt slides to match. The bit in Mandarin is also spot on. Many thanks to those who took the time and effort to complie it. Take a bow !

thank ya bunches tim. and really i'm the only one who did it, hence the lack of animation and use of slides, but my best friends over at broken smiles club inspired me to not drop it like most of my half-finished projects
