A simple child's poem about diversity in the US.
A bit of this, a bit of that
Two Irish eyes, a Jewish hat
A spot of spaghetti on a French silk blouse
All in a Dutch Colonial house
On a Russian block in a German town
They make London Fog coats from Canadian down
While they drink British Blend out of real China cups
And the Siamese cats and the Pekinese pups
Make such a racket while trying to say . . .
"Don't you just love the American way?"
