Subject: Lyr Add: MERRY MINUET (from Kingston Trio)
They're rioting in Africa
La La La La La La La
They're fighting in Spain
La La La La La La
There's hurricanes in Florida
La La La La La La La
And Texas needs rain
La La La La

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 thankful
And tranquil and proud
For man's been endowed
With a mushroom shaped cloud.
And we know for certain
That some lovely day
Someone will set the spark off
And we will all be blown away.

They're rioting in Africa
La La La La La La La
There's strife in Iran
La La La La
What nature doesn't do to us
La La La La La La La
Will be done by our fellow man.
