The Merry Minuet (Stereo Concert version)

Sheldon Harnick

[Intro]
Thank you very much
As you can probably tell from the rapidity of our return
That exit was fraudulent (Yes)
And well, yes
Now, we'd like to
Uh, we'd like to bring you a song from our new album
"The Kingston Trio plays John Foster Dulles"

(Come fly with me!)
Fly with me?
(La, la, la-la)
(Funny if you're prejudiced)

One, two, three

[Verse 1]
They're rioting in Africa *whistling*
They're starving in Spain *whistling*
There's hurricanes in Florida *whistling*
And Texas needs rain *whistling*

[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 *whistling*
There's strife in Iran *whistling*
What nature doesn't do to us *whistling*
Will be done by our fellow man

[Outro]
(Head for the border)
That's not where we're going
I can't hear your voice

We learned that at a Marine recruiting station in San Francisco
All the, uh, all the boys were singing it down there
