Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Grocer (Ewan MacColl)
MacColl DID have at least one 'fun' political song ! Had a pop at Jim Callaghan's lot AND the Red Guard as well with his 'China Rag'
Or IF you want the FULL Title - DEEP breath !!

'The Democratic Peace Loving Peoples of the West Will Not be Overtaken By the Revolutionary Hordes of the Peoples republic of China Rag '

The Chorus is :-

Cnina my old Chine you've led your kids astray
But send them over here to us and we'll show them the way
We'll help them to get with it , we'll stop them being square
With LSD thats almost free we'll banish every care
