We`d Like To Thank You Lyrics

We`d Like To Thank You lyrics

ALL 



Today we're living in a shanty

Today we're scrounding for a meal 



SOPHIE



Today I'm stealing coal for fires

Who knew i could steal? 



MEN



I used to winter in the tropics 



WOMEN



I spent my summers at the shore 



FRED



I used to throw away the paper-- 



ALL



We'd like to thank you: Herber Hoover

For really showing us the way 

We'd like to thank you: Herbert Hoover 

You made us what we are today 



Prosperity was 'round the corner 

The cozy cottage built for two

In this blue heaven 

That you

Gave us 

Yes! 



We're turning blue! 

They offered us Al Smith and Hoover

We paid attention and we chose

Not only did we pay attention 

We paid through the nose. 



In ev'ry pt he said "a chicken" 

But Herbert Hoover he forgot 

Not only don't we have the chicken 

We ain't got the pot! 

Hey Herbie 



WOMEN



You left behind a greatful nation



ALL



So, Herb, our hats are off to you

We're up to here with admiration 



SOPHIE



Come down and have a little stew 



ALL



Come down and share some Christmas dinner

Be sure to bring the missus too

We got no turkey for our stuffing

We'd like to thank you, Herbert Hoover 

For really showing us the way 

You dirty rat, you Bureaucrat, you

Made us what we are today

Come and get it, Herb!
