Talking Un-American Blues

[struggle4progress]

Early one morning
got an invitation
To help Congress out
in an investigation
Man came around
a-knocking at the door
Give me a paper
that said what for
Subpoena
looking for Un-Americans
Look in the mirror

Now if you want an invite
here's what to do
You got to talk with peace
sing it too
Visit your neighbors
hear what they say
Before you know it
you're on your way
Fare paid
Ride in style
First class

Well you brush your hair
and you dress real pretty
You got a date
with the Un-American Committee ...

"Are you now, or have ever been
Were you ever sympathetic or interested in...
When did you start
how long did it last
Tell us all about
your interesting past
Answer yes or no" ...
