Lyrics
Forty Odd Years Ago
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mussolini was a fascist pig.
Hitler was no better.
Tojo was an imperialistic nip.
But stalin managed to go one better.
(Chorus)
Forty odd years ago (2x)
Before you and I were born.
Chamberlain was our man of peace.
But was fooled by a piece of paper.
Churchill warned him long ago.
He vowed to halt Hitler's caper.
