The Smiths And The Jones
Composer(s): K. Twomey - A. Goodhart - I. Joseph
Performer(s): Flanagan & Allen



Who’s building the ships, who’s buying the planes
Who’s manning the tanks and the guns?
It’s the Smiths and the Jones
And the Kellys and Cohens
They’re all democracy’s sons

Who fights in the north, who fights in the south
Who fights in the east and the west?
It’s the Smiths and the Jones
And the Kellys and Cohens
They’re all democracy’s best

Oh they won’t be back till they attack
While there’s a job that must be done

Who’s sweethearts will yearn until they return
And who’ll be the happiest one?
But the Smiths and the Jones
And the Kellys and Cohens
They’re all democracy’s sons

We the people are working night and day
To set the whole world free
And when I say “we”, it’s easy to see
that I mean you and me

Who’s building the planes? Who’s building the tanks?
Who’s launching the ships by the ton?
It’s the Smiths and the Jones
And the Kellys and Cohens
They’re all democracy’s sons

Their aim is the same so what’s in a name
There’s just one desire to win
And the Smiths and the Jones
And the Kellys and Cohens
They’ve just begun to begin

Oh. They never stop till they’re on top
Why there’s a job that must be done

Who’s paying the tax? Who’s buying the bombs?
Who’s filling the treasury funds
It’s the Smiths and the Jones
And the Kellys and Cohens
They’re all democracy’s sons

Right is on their side, they’ll fight with pride
And bring us victory

And last but not least they’ll mop up in the east
And then the united has won
With the Smiths and the Jones
And the Kellys and Cohens
They’re all democracy’s sons
