Lyrics
Miniver Cheevy, child of scorn,
Grew lean as he assailed the seasons.
He wept that he was ever born
And he had reasons.

Miniver mourned the right renowned
That makes so many a name so fragrant.
He mourned romance now on the town
And art a vagrant.

Miniver scorned the gold he sought
But sore annoyed was he without it,
Miniver thought and thought and thought
And thought about it.

Miniver loved the Medici
Albiet he had never seen one.
He would have sinned incessantly
Could he have been one.

Miniver cursed the common place
And eyed a khaki suit with loathing
He missed the medieval grace
Of iron clothing.

Miniver Cheevy born too late
Scratched his head and kept on thinking.
Miniver coughed and called it fate
And kept on drinking.
