Now look here Joe, quit acting smart |
|
Stop being that old brazen sort |
|
Don't you go sellin' this country short |
|
No, no Joe |
|
Just because you think you've found |
|
The system that we know ain't sound |
|
Don't you go throwin' your weight around |
|
No, no Joe |
|
'Cause the Kaiser tried it and Hitler tried it |
|
Mussolini tried it too |
|
Now they're all sittin' around a fire and did you know something? |
|
They're saving a place for you |
|
Now Joe you ought to get it clear |
|
You can't push folks around with fear |
|
'Cause we don't scare easy over here |
|
No, no Joe |
|
What makes you do the things you do? |
|
You gettin' folks mad at you |
|
Don't bite off more'n you can chew |
|
No, no Joe |
|
'Cause you want a scrap that you can't win |
|
You don't know what you're getting in |
|
Don't go around leading with your chin |
|
No, no Joe |
|
Now you got tanks, some fair size tanks |
|
But you're acting like a clown |
|
'Cause man we've got Yanks, a mess of Yanks |
|
And you might get caught with your tanks down |
|
Don't go throwin' out your chest |
|
You'll pop the buttons off your vest |
|
You're playing with a hornets' nest |
|
No, no Joe |
|
You know, you think you're somebody we should dread |
|
Just because you're seein' red |
|
You better get that foolishness out of your head |
|
No, no Joe |
|
And you might be itchin' for a fight |
|
Quit braggin' about how your bear can bite |
|
'Cause you're sitting on a keg of dynamite |
|
No, no Joe |
