Tariffs on roses and imported kittens
French Copper kettles and Icelandic mittens
Tariffs on packages sent from Beijing
Tariffs on all of my favorite things
Fridges from China and sportscars from Europe
Mexican veggies, Canadian syrup,
African coffee, Dutch tulips in spring;
Tariffs on all of my favorite things
With the tax hike
There’s a price spike;
Then I’m feeling poor;
High tariffs on all of my favorite things
That I can’t enjoy no more.
Tariffs on dresses made by Bangladeshis
Makeup to spread on your nose and eyelashes
Phones and computers and nice diamond rings
Tariffs on all of my favorite things.
Green avocados and Irish potatoes,
Peruvian berries, Italian tomatoes
Japanese ramen that’s fit for a King
Tariffs on all of my favorite things.
Raise the duties
On those booties
Make the people mad
Tariffs that change on the president’s whim
That’s why I feel so sad.
