                                        Verve Pipe, The -  spoonful of sugar слова песни 
                                    
                                    
                             
                            
                            
                                
     
 
                                                                     
I adore a confrontation, and I should be ashamed 
a carnival of complication, everyone`s to blame 
we can see the rocket`s red glare 
pipe bomb bursting in the air 
as we proudly hail our taxis out of the fight 
 
singing born of this nation of white bread foundation 
we`re taping a king, beaten of his crown 
my country `tis of thee, sweet land of irony 
spoonful of sugar to wash it down 
 
i have seen the hungry faces, and i have been removed 
evidence in welfare cases, never being proved 
we`ve written books on education 
summoned federal regulation 
skeleton hid deeply `til its bones turn to dust 
 
i know an old lady who swallowed a fly 
i don`t know why exactly, i guess she`ll die 
my country `tis of thee, sweet land of irony 
spoonful of sugar to wash it down 
 
and god save the queen, oh, and pardon the king 
and our ballots we`ll stuff, then drink `till we drown 
my country `tis of thee, sweet land of irony 
spoonful of sugar to wash it down
