BAMBOO by Tom Rogers and Ellen Fuller

You take some auto workers
|
|
You take some auto workers
|
|
You take some auto workers
|
|
And don't allow a union
|
|
|
|
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh Honda
|
|
|
|
My owner's cross the water
|
|
My owner's cross the water
|
|
My owner's cross the water
|
|
And buying up Hawaii
|
|
|
|
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh Honda
|
|
|
|
Iacocca, Iacocca. He fell down.
|
|
Iacocca, Iacocca. He fell down.
|
|
|
|
We make your Ford Escort
|
|
We make your Chevy Geo
|
|
We make your Dodge Shadow
|
|
It's just a Mitsubishi

THIS LAND WAS MADE BY JAPANESE (by Karyn
|
|
Klausner, Bob Hirschfeld, Kate
|
|
McCaffrey, Jane Rein'l)
|
|
(to the tune of This Land is Your Land)
|
|
|
|
This land is your land, this land is my land
|
|
As long this land, is made in Thailand
|
|
We don't need quotas, for more Toyotas
|
|
This land was made by Japanese.
|
|
|
|
As I was driving that superhighway
|
|
Ten thousand imports were going my way
|
|
Paid for enjoyment, with unemployment
|
|
This land was made by Japanese.
|
|
|
|
Since Hiroshima and Nagasaki
|
|
Our relations have been less rocky
|
|
They don't remember Seven December
|
|
This land was made by Japanese.
|
|
|
|
They learned our methods, but something's
|
|
rotten
|
|
They practiced virtues we have forgotten
|
|
They call our workers, illit'rate shirkers
|
|
This land was made by Japanese.
|
|
|
|
We bought their cameras, transistor radios
|
|
And then their TV's, cars and stereos,
|
|
But they won't buy goods made in the U.S.
|
|
This land was made by Japanese.
|
|
|
|
They never looked for the union label
|
|
They claimed their workers were all more able
|
|
Negotiations? They own the table.
|
|
This land was made by Japanese.
|
|
|
|
But in their haste to buy our country
|
|
They bought cholest'rol, and shortened life
|
|
spans
|
|
They bought heart failure, and increased
|
|
cancer
|
|
We're paying back the Japanese
|
|
|
|
This land is your land, this land is my land
|
|
As long this land, is made in Thailand
|
|
We don't need quotas, for more Toyotas
|
|
This land was made by Japanese.
