The Merry Minuet

They're rioting in Africa,
they're starving in Spain.
There are 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 we don't like anybody very much!

But we can be thankful and tranquil and proud
that man's been endowed
with a mushroom-shaped cloud.
(Lovely!)
And we know for certain that some lovely day,
someone will set the spark off...
(Smashing!)
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.

Slight variations in the "Hungry i" LP version:

They're rioting in Africa
(whistle)
They're starving in Spain
(whistle)
There's hurricanes in Florida
(whistle)
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
The mushroom-shaped cloud

And we know for certain

That some lovely day
Someone will set the spark off ...
(pause)
.. And we will all be blown away!

They're rioting in Africa

(whistle)
There's strife in Iran
(whistle)


What nature doesn't do to us

(whistle)
Will be done by our fellow man!
