Hungarian Goulash No. 5 |
If you like Hungarian food |
They have a goulash which is very good |
Or if you wish a dish that’s Chinese |
Somewhere down in Column B there’s lobster Cantonese |
Enchiladas, that’s what people eat in Mexico |
Shish kebab is skewered, in Armenia you know |
Then there’s blubber, the favorite of the frigid Eskimo |
Such delicious dishes, no matter where you go |
Chicken cacciatore is Italian |
Kangaroo souffle must be Australian |
Mutton chops are definitely British |
Chicken soup undoubtedly is Yiddish |
Pumpernickel comes from Lithuania |
Hassenpfeffer comes from Pennsylvania |
Wiener schnitzel’s Austrian or German |
Kindly pass the sauerbraten, Herman |
Borscht is what they’re eating in the Soviet |
Wait, I think we’ve got some on the stove yet |
See the Mau Maus underneath the jungle sky |
Jolly Mau Maus, eating missionary pie |
Frenchmen eat a lot of bouillabaisse there |
Dutchmen eat a sauce called Hollandaise there |
Smorgasbord in Swedish is the winner |
In America it’s TV dinner |
So there you have one food from each land |
Each one delicious, each one simply grand |
Mix them all up, in one big mish mash |
And what have you got? |
Hungarian goulash! |
