Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
The Merry MinuetKingston TrioThey're rioting in Africa,They're starving in Spain.There's hurricanes in Florida,And Texas needs rainThe whole world is festeringWith unhappy souls.The French hate the Germans,The Germans hate the Poles;Italians hate Yugoslavs,South Africans hate the Dutch,And I don't like anybody very much!But we can be tranquilAnd "thankfill" and proud,For man's been endowedWith a mushroom-shaped cloud.And we know for certainThat some lovely daySomeone will set the spark off,And we will all be blown away!They're rioting in Africa,There's strife in Iran.What nature doesn't do to usWill be done by our fellow man!
