Lyrics

Rainbow Stew

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.

There's a big brown cloud in the city,

And the country side a scene.

The price of life is to high to give up

It's rather come down again.

When world wide war's is over and done

And the dream of peace comes true.

We'll all be drinking that free bubble up

And eat that rainbow stew.

When they'll found out how to burn water

And the gasoline car is gone

When an airplane flies without any fuel

And the sunlight heats our home

One of these days when the air clears up

And the sun comes shining through

We'll all be drinking that free bubble up

And eat that rainbow stew.

Eat that rainbow stew in a silver spoon

Underneath that sky are blue

We'll all be drinking that free bubble up

And eat that rainbow stew.

You don't have to get high to get happy

Just think about what's in store

When people start doing what they odd to be doing

And they wont be booing no more

When a president goes through the white house door

Does what he says he'll do

We'll all be drinking that free bubble up

And eat that rainbow stew

Eat that rainbow stew in a silver spoon

Underneath that sky are blue

We'll all be drinking that free bubble up

And eat that rainbow stew
