Lyrics
Live version
Sell us a president, agency man
Smiling Big Brother, stern father perhaps
Sell us a president, agency man
A gay smiling nothing we know never craps
Let's try California,
(Pay us first before we do it!)
We'll get a smilin' nazi
And march him right on through
Rent a baby
Kiss a baby
Ladies in for tea
And here's a bunch of speeches
We'll toss 'em in for free
Sell us a president, agency man
Smiling Big Brother, stern father perhaps
Sell us a president, agency man
A gay smiling nothing we know never craps
We'll sell him in the movies
On the tube throughout the year
We'll sell him by the buckets
To the Okies drinking beer
We'll teach him how to walk and talk
We'll putty up his chin
We'll print his picture everywhere
Of course the SCHMUCK will win
From the heart of old Death Valley
To the ruling of our land
A simple trick, you simple pigs
Just the way we planned
