An American legend,
A company that helped to end World War II.
With its B-17’s and B-29’s,
And at last the B-52 that sustained the front against communism,
The US government purchased airplanes by Boeing, more than a few
And was featured in such epics as Fail Safe and Dr. Strangelove.
The company that produced then 707,717,737,727,747,757,767,777, and 787
And Above,
-all else,
Where would Steve Miller be if he didn’t get on jet airliner?
Now Boeing is thinking about moving its headquarters to China.
A Communist country, what is this a joke?
Boeing now features TV ads that promote the nation’s defense.
The nation security is at stake,
Boeing thinks that the American public must be dense,
I suppose that the ads must be fake.
Taiwan is considered a rogue province by Beijing,
Beijing will take control over it in some way.
I was there, I know.
China will take over the economic world one day.
Mao Tse-Tung’s legacy
-- will continue on through the help American Ingenuity.
Wal-Marts, Cumby Auctions, you name it, China will have it.
