Tom Lehrer - National Brotherhood Week
Предстоящему невнятному празднику посвящается. :)))
I’d like to start out with telling you something about a very peculiar American custom. One week in every February is officially designated a National Brotherhood Week. This means that we are supposed to stop whatever we’re doing - burning, killing, whatever - and love everybody else. And it’s really quite a strain. Here is a song about National Brotherhood Week.
Oh, the white folks hate the black folks
And the black folks hate the white folks
To hate all but the right folks
Is an old established rule
But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
See Cassius Clay and *
dancing cheek to cheek!
It’s fun to eulogize
The people you despise
As long as you don’t let ’em in your school
Oh, the poor folks hate the rich folks
And the rich folks hate the poor folks
All of my folks hate all of your folks
It’s American as apple pie
But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
New Yorkers love the Puerto Ricans
’Cause it’s very chic
Step up and shake the hand
Of someone you can’t stand
You can tolerate him if you try
Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics
And the Catholics hate the Protestants
And the Hindus hate the Moslems
And everybody hates the Jews
But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
It’s National Everyone-Smile-At-
One-Another-hood Week
Be nice to people who
Are inferior to you
It’s only for a week, so have no fear
Be grateful that it doesn’t last all year!
