Yakko:
You and me*
We had a bag of fun
Down by the East Riverside
The United Nations there
Drives away a fellow's cares
One hundred-eighty three countries meet
Down by the East Riverside
New York, off 42nd Street
Wakko:
See foreign states
With a grudge
Down by the East Riverside
United Nations tries to fix
Wars, famine, and oil slicks
Boutros Boutros-Ghali-gee
Down by the East Riverside
Leads the General Assembly
Dot:
The gift shop will traveler's checks
Down by the East Riverside
German tourists were not rare
Buying T-shirts and flatware
Ate pastries from Liberia
Down by the East Riverside
At the U.N. cafeteria
Y,W+D:
Took a tour with some Dutch
Down by the East Riverside
We had a guide from Japan
Who had a decent pension plan
Some costly artwork from Brazil
Down by the East Riverside
On which my soda I did spill
You and me, we had a bag of fun
Down by the East Riverside
Saw flags on shiny poles
From lands with lofty goals
We'll beat our swords into liverwurst
Down by the East Riverside
But no one wants to be the first
Y,W+D: But then, I guess it could be worse
Wakko: We could still sing one more verse
Y,W+D: You and me!
*Note: Just so the context is clear, this song is a pun and an alternate version of a song entitled "You and Me" with the tune "Down By The Riverside". It's a pun because the song is about the United Nations, or the U.N., which is located by the East River in New York City
