WHAT’S IN A NAME?

The Yanks all call us Limeys,
The Aussies call us Poms.
We call the Ruskies Commies,
Some shorten it to Coms.

We call a Frenchman Froggie,
We call a German Kraut.
We call the Arabs Ragheads,
That’s not what it’s about.

We call the Irish Paddy.
Use Pollack for the Poles.
And Eyety for Italians.
Just to save our souls?

Aborigines are Abbos,
And Chinamen are Chinks.
If there are any chinks ariound,
It’s in the way one thinks!

We all live on this planet,
And we need to get along.
To call each other silly names
Just seems to me all wrong.

We used to call a Spade a Spade,
But even that’s not right.
By calling everyone a name,
It gives us cause to fight.

We all come from a common source.
So everyone’s the same.
We need to get together,
And learn to play the game.

There should be no more wars to fight.
No fighting over land.
Let’s stop this crazyy name calling,
And love our fellow man.
