Surely someone out there in Mudcatland can help with this query: Back in the 1960's I heard a song called "The Twelve Days of >Peacetime." I am trying to find the lyrics to it. It was sung to >the tune of The Twelve Days of Christmas. It Began, "On the first >day of peacetime, my leader said to me, There'll be no world war >three." Other lines were "Bigger better bombs", "Don't sign the >test ban", and at the point where you'd hear "Five Gold Rings" it >was "Rearm Germany!" It was a satirical political hoot sung at the >National Music Camp at Interlochen, Michigan by one of the >Counselors there named Ira Kaufman. > Thanks in advance Hootenanny Guy www.sfhootenanny.com
