JOE MCCARTHY'S BAND (Joe Glazer) Oh, my name is Joe McCarthy I'm the leader of the hand I don't play in the concert hall but on the witness stand. I have the finest orchestra in Washington, D.C. And night and day I love to play McCarthy's Symphony. Oh, Jenner howls and Bill D. yowis and Mundt says "Pour it on!" The drums go bang, the cymbals clang from Maine to Oregon. And Hickenlooper tootles the flute as victims take the stand The sweetest music ever heard is Joe McCarthy's Band! Toodle-de-do, try to sue Toodle-de-do, Just try to sue Toodle-de-do, I'll tell you more But I'll never never never say it off the Senate floor! Now I'm the best investigator in the Senate hall Who cares about the evidence, I use a crystal ball. I taught J. Edgar Hoover and his Boy Scout FBI That proof is not required when you're out to catch a spy. When I started chasing Communists I claimed two hundred five And then I swore 'twas eighty one to keep the thing alive Then fifty-seven varieties of reds and pinks galore They're climbin' on the ceiling and they're creepin' ou the floor. Well, I'm the biggest headline chaser in the U.S.A. I'd rather chase a headline than a Commie any day. I've called 'em red, I've called 'em pink and everything between But the fact is that I'm colorblind, I can't tell red from green! from Songs for Political Action, Bear Family Records @political @music filename[ MCCBAND JRO Feb07 ![]() 8note Sheet> |
