Rainbow Stew (1981)
There's a big, brown cloud in the city
And the countryside's a sin
The price of life is too high to give up
It's gotta come down again

The world wide war is over and done
And the dream of peace comes thru
We'll all be drinking that free Bubble-Up
And eating that rainbow stew

When they find out how to burn water
And the gasoline car is gone
When an airplane flies without any fuel
And the sunlight heats our home

One of these days when the air clears up
And the sun comes shining thru
We'll all be drinking that free Bubble-Up
And eating that rainbow stew


Eating rainbow stew in a silver spoon
Underneath that sky of blue
We'll all be drinking that free Bubble-Up
And eating that rainbow stew

You don't have to get high to get happy
Just think about what's in store
When people start doing what they ought to be doing
Then they won't be booing no more

When a President goes through the White House doors
And does what he says he'll do
We'll all be drinking that free Bubble-Up
And eating that rainbow stew

Eating rainbow stew in a silver spoon
Underneath that sky of blue
We'll all be drinking that free Bubble-Up
And eating that rainbow stew
