Verve Pipe - Spoonful Of Sugar Lyrics
I adore a confrontation, and I should be ashamedA carnival of complication, everyones to blameWe can see the rockets red glarePipe bomb bursting in the airAs we proudly hail our taxis out of the fightSinging born of this nation of white bread foundationWere taping a king, beaten of his crownMy country tis of thee, sweet land of ironySpoonful of sugar to wash it downI have seen the hungry faces, and I have been removedEvidence in welfare cases, never being provedWeve written books on educationSummoned federal regulationSkeleton hid deeply til its bones turn to dustI know an old lady who swallowed a flyI dont know why exactly, I guess shell dieMy country tis of thee, sweet land of ironySpoonful of sugar to wash it downAnd God save the queen, oh, and pardon the kingAnd our ballots well stuff, then drink till we drownMy country tis of thee, sweet land of ironySpoonful of sugar to wash it down
