Lyrics Siberia - Cole Porter

Siberia

When we’re sent to dear Siberia
To Siberi-eri-a
When it’s cocktail time 'twill be so nice
Just to know you’ll not have to phone for ice
When we meet in sweet Siberia
Far from Bolshevik hysteria
We’ll go on a tear
For our buddies all are there
In cheery Siberi-a
When we’re sent to dear Siberia
To Siberi-eri-a
Where they say all day the sun shines bright
And they also say that it shines all night
The aurora borealis is
Not as heated as a palace is
If on heat you dote
You can shoot a sable coat
In cheery Siberi-a
When we’re sent to dear Siberia
To Siberi-eri-a
Where the labor laws are all so fair
That you never have unemployment there
When we meet in sweet Siberia
To protect us from diphtheria
We can toast our toes
On the lady Eskimos
In cheery Siberi-a
When we’re sent to dear Siberia
To Siberi-eri-a
Since the big salt mines will be so near
We can all have salt to put in our beer
When we meet in sweet Siberia
Where the snow is so 'superia'
You can bet, all right
That your Christmas will be white
In cheery Siberi-a
When we’re sent to dear Siberia
To Siberi-eri-a
There’s a most delicious bill of fare
You must try our filet of polar bear
When we meet in sweet Siberia
To protect us from diphtheria
We can toast our toes
On the lady Eskimos
In cheery Siberi-a
When we’re sent to dear Siberia
To Siberi-eri-a
When the salt air makes us feel so fine
In the fresh salt air from our own salt mine
When we meet in sweet Siberia
Where the snow is so 'superia'
You can bet, all right
That your Christmas will be white
In cheery Siberi-a
