Van Dyke Parks
The Beehive State
[Verse 1]
Since you're the delegate from Kansas
Will you kindly take the floor
And tell us what is Kansas thinking
And what is Kansas for?

[Verse 2]
Well, Kansas is for the farmer
We stand behind the little man
And we need a firehouse in Topeka
So help us if you can

[Chorus]
Ah da da, da da, da da da
Ah da da, da da, da da
Ah da da da, da da, da da da

[Verse 4]
I see the gentleman from Utah
Our friendly Beehive state
How can we help you, Utah?
How can we make you great?

[Verse 5]
Well, we got to irrigate our deserts
We've got to get some things to grow
And we got to tell this country about Utah
'Cause nobody seems to know
[Chorus]
Ah da da, da da, da da da
Ah da da, da da, da da
Ah da da da, da da, da da da
