Danger Danger |
| You got Ma Rainey talkin' 'bout a jelly roll |
| Chuck Berry workin' on a mojo |
| Bessie Smith singin' Bull Dagger Blues |
| Elvis twiching on the evening news |
| Danger, danger, can’t you see |
| That sex should stay a mystery |
| So ban that music, yessirree |
| That’s what America means to me |
| We gonna ban Walt Whitman, and Jean Cocteau |
| All the queers will have to go |
| Mr. Tennessee Williams, Plato too |
| You got to give J. Edgar Hoover his due |
| Danger, danger, can’t you see |
| They’re in your local library |
| So ban those authors, yessirree |
| That’s what America means to me, yeah |
| We gonna ban all the dagos, the wops and the kikes |
| Gonna ban all the chinks and the towelhead types |
| Ban all the wetbacks, ban all the fags |
| Wrap it up tight in the American flag |
| Danger, danger, can’t you see |
| It’s dangerous when they are free |
| So ban those lazy refugees |
| That’s what America means to me |
| I watched the news last night at nine |
| Saw a head blown off somebody’s spine |
| The women moaned and the children screamed |
| Doesn’t anybody else think that’s obscene? |
| It ought to be a felony |
| To practice such stupidity |
| But it’s my right, as you can see |
| That’s what America means to me, yeah |
