House Un-American Blues - Mimi[00:00:00]
I was standing on the sidewalk had a noise in my head [00:00:09]
There were loudspeakers babbling but nothing was said [00:00:13]
There were twenty-seven companies of female Marines [00:00:17]
There were presidential candidates in new Levis jeans [00:00:21]
It was the red white and blue planning how to endure [00:00:26]
The fife drum and bugle marching down on the poor [00:00:30]
God bless America without any doubt [00:00:34]
And I figured it was time to get out [00:00:38]
Well I have to b'lieve that in between scenes good people [00:00:43]
Went and got em done in the sun good people [00:00:47]
Tourist information said to get on the stick [00:00:51]
You ain't moving 'til you're grooving with a Cubana chick [00:00:54]
So I hopped on a plane I took a pill for my brain [00:00:59]
And I discovered I was feeling all right [00:01:03]
When I strolled down the Prado people looked at me weird [00:01:07]
Who's that hippy hoppy character without any beard [00:01:11]
Drinking juice from papayas singing songs to the trees [00:01:15]
Dancing mambo on the beaches spreading social disease [00:01:20]
Now the Castro convertible was changing the style [00:01:24]
A whole lot of action on a blockaded isle [00:01:28]
When along come a summons in the middle of night [00:01:33]
Saying "Buddy we're about to indict "[00:01:36]
When I went up on the stand with my hand good people [00:02:05]
You've got to tell the truth in the booth good people [00:02:10]
I started out with information kind of remote [00:02:14]
When a patriotic mother dragged me down by the throat [00:02:18]
"If they ask you a question they expect a reply "[00:02:22]
Doesn't matter if you're fixin' to die [00:02:26]
Well I was lying there unconscious feeling kind of exempt [00:02:30]
When the judge said that silence was a sign of contempt [00:02:34]
He took out his gavel banged me hard on the head [00:02:38]
He fined me ten years in prison and a whole lot of bread [00:02:42]
It was the red white and blue making war on the poor [00:02:47]
Blind mother justice on a pile of manure [00:02:51]
Say your prayers and the Pledge of Allegiance every night [00:02:55]
And tomorrow you'll be feeling all right[00:02:59]
