A Long, long time ago
We used to get our food home grown,
And toothpaste used to make you smile,

It used to be you'd shop with ease,
Never eating anti-freeze,
You'd plan to keep on living quite a while,

But now our good are all delivered,
From somewhere on the Yangtze River,
No one knows the source there,

So you might find some horse hair,
But if corporations maker a buck,
They don't give a flying ????. Peking Duck,

And with this system we get stuck today,
It makes you sigh.


Now when you buy, buy an American pie,
Your grandma didn't bake it,
It was made in Shanghai,

Where they engineered the apples to be juicy not dry,
But the crust is made of cardboard and lye,
Don't feed it to your dog he might die,

Now did you eat a Tastykake?
And did it make your stomach ache?
I could have said ?I told you so!?

And the reason you are looking wan,
Is some guy took bribes in Sichuan,
So You just bit into Little Debbie's toe,

And now the toys you bought from Fisher Price,
Have toxins deemed unsafe for mice,
And Elmo tends to wheeze,

'Cause he's laced with PCB's
But in spite of all my problems seen so far,
When I see my new cheap DVR,

I'll even brush my teeth with tar and you will see,
That I'll buy, buy from some young guy,
I drive a Chevie and it's heavy but the price is too high,

Soon twenty bucks will buy a car from Shanghai,
And honey that'll be the day we all die.
