To the tune of, It's a Grand Old Flag - if i'm not mistaken, original melody & lyrics by George M Cohan.
This parody is courtesy of Mad Magazine -
"It's that grand old smog, it's that low-lying smog,
U can tell from the smell & the pall -
Tho it burns the skies & stings the eyes,It means there's employment for all!
For it comes, U see, from some great factory
where there's never an idle cog...
So let's all be grateful for what we've got,And give thanks to that grand old smog!"
That was published, i think, in the 1960s, & if the current POTUS has his way, our skies will be smoky again very soon - from oxymoronic "clean" coal, burned to power our economic engine. Some folks never learn.
