They're rioting in Africa They're starving in Spain There's hurricanes in Florida And Texas needs rain. The Whole world is festering, W hat 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 tranquil and thankful and proud For man's been endowed with a mushroom-shaped cloud And we know for certain that some lucky day Someone 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 us Will be done by our fellow Man Sheldon Harnick @1958
