Lyrics
The Merry Minuet
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.
They're rioting in africa. they're starving in spain. there's
Hurricanes in florida and texas needs rain.
The whole world is festering with 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 lovely 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.
