Merry Little Minuet Hungry i version by The Kingston Trio Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1959

[Intro]
Time limits us right now
And this actual number that we're going to play right now
Will be featured on our next album:
"The Kingston Trio plays John Foster Dulles"

Fly with me!

[Verse 1]
They're rioting in Africa; they're starving in Spain
There's hurricanes in Florida, and Texas needs rain

[Verse 2]
The whole world is festering with unhappy souls
The French hate the Germans; the Germans hate the Poles

[Verse 3]
Italians hate Yugoslavs; South Africans hate the Dutch
And I don't like anybody very much

[Verse 4]
But we can be tranquil, and thankful and proud
For man's been endowed with a mushroom-shaped cloud
[Verse 5]
And we know for certain that some lovely day
Someone will set the spark off, and we will all be blown away

[Verse 6]
They're rioting in Africa; there's strife in Iran
What nature doesn't do to us will be done by our fellow man
