Tom Lehrer — The Old Dope Peddler

When the shades of night are falling Comes a fellow ev'ryone knows It's the old dope peddler Spreading joy wherever he goes Ev'ry evening you will find him Around our neighborhood It's the old dope peddler Doing well by doing good He gives the kids free samples Because he knows full well That today's young innocent faces Will be tomorrow's clientele Here's a cure for all your troubles Here's an end to all distress It's the old dope peddler With his powdered ha-happiness
