History

As a comet seemed set to strike Springfield, the townspeople crowded into Ned Flanders' bomb shelter. When it became too full, Homer singled out Ned and forced him out. Ned accepted it calmly and went outside, singing “Que Sera, Sera” as he waited for the end. Later, moved by his calm acceptance, the others left the shelter and joined Ned in singing together while the comet approached.

Lyrics

Ned:

When I was just a little girl

I asked my mother, "What will I be?"

"Will I be pretty? Will I be rich?"

Here's what she said to me

All:

"Que será, será

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será, será"
