| @KMIDI KARAOKE FILE@Lby Tom Lehrer@TMLF Lullaby 1964 Tom Lehrer@TDr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 19 Nov 2002
Sleep, baby sleep,
in peace may you slumber,
no danger lurks,
your sleep to encumber,
we've got the missiles,
peace to determine,
and one of the fingers
on the button will be German.
Why shouldn't they have nuclear warheads?
England says no,
but they are all sore-heads,
I say a bygone should be a bygone,
let's make peace the way we did
in Stanleyville and Saigon.
Once all the Germans
were war-like and mean,
but that couldn't happen again.
We taught them a lesson
in nineteen-eighteen,
and they've hardly bothered us since then.
So sleep well, my darling,
the sandman can linger,
we know our buddies won't give us the finger,
Heil, hail the Wehrmacht,
I mean the Bundeswehr.
Hail to our loyal ally!
M.L.F. will scare Brezhnev,
I hope he is half as scared as I. |
