[COUPLE]
Today we’re living in a shanty
[TWO MEN]
Today we’re scrounging for a meal
[SOPHIE]
Today I’m stealing coal for fires
Who knew I could steal?!
[MAN]
I spent my winter in the tropics
[TWO WOMEN]
I spent my summers at the shore
[FRED]
I used to throw away the papers
[ALL]
We don’t anymore
We'd like to thank you, Herbert 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
[MAN]
They offered us Al Smith
[WOMAN]
And Hoover
Ha!
[BOTH]
We paid attention and we chose
[ALL]
Not only did we pay attention
We paid through the nose!
[WOMAN]
“In every pot,” he said, “a chicken”
[ALL]
But Herbert Hoover, he forgot
Not only don’t we have the chicken
[ANNIE]
You ain’t got the pot!
[ALL]
Hey Herbey
[WOMEN]
You left behind a grateful nation
[MEN]
Grateful nation
So Herb, our hats are off to you
[WOMEN]
Herb, our hats are off
[ALL]
We’re up to here!- with admiration
[ANNIE]
We think you’d like a little stew
[MEN]
Come down and share some Christmas dinner
[WOMEN]
Oh, oh, oh
Make sure to bring the Mrs. too
[MEN]
Bring the Mrs. too
[ALL]
We got no turkey for our stuffing
Why don’t we stuff you?!
We’d like to thank you Herbert Hoover
(Thank you Herbey)
For really showing us the way
You dirty rat, you!
You’re a brat! You
Made us what we are today
(spoken)
Come and get it Herb!
