“Where Has All the Talent Gone?”
(Sung to “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?,” of course)

By GRA

Where has all the talent gone?
Long time, passing.
Where has all the talent gone?
Far, far, away.
Where has all the talent gone—
Not replaced by anyone.
What of this, should we learn?
What of this, should we learn?

Where have all the great stars gone?
Long time, passing.
Where have the musicians gone?
Far, far, away.
Where have all the comics gone—
Not replaced by anyone.
What of this, should we learn?
What of this, should we learn?

Where have all the White folks gone?
On my TV.
Where have all the White folks gone?
On my TV.
Where have all the White folks gone?
blacks replaced them—every one.
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

Where has all the talent gone?
Long time passing.
Where has all the talent gone?
Far, far, away.
Where has all the talent gone—
Gone with White folks, every one.
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

N.S.: Usually, your songs are funny, GRA, but this one broke my heart.
