Lyrics - The John Birch Society by Chad Mitchell Trio

by
Michael
Brown
Oh, we're meetin' at the courthouse at eight o'clock tonight
You just walk in the door and take the first turn to the right
Be careful when you get there, we hate to be bereft
But we're taking down the names of everybody turning left
Oh, we're the
John
Birch
Society, the
John
Birch
Society
Here to save our country from a communistic plot
Join the
John
Birch
Society, help us fill the ranks
To get this movement started we need lots of tools and cranks
Now there's no one that we're certain the
Kremlin doesn't touch
We think that
Westbrook
Pegler doth protest a bit too much
We only hail the hero from whom we got our name
We're not sure what he did but he's our hero just the same
Oh, we're the
John
Birch
Society, the
John
Birch
Society
Socialism is the ism dismalest of all
Join the
John
Birch
Society, there's so much to do
Have you heard they're serving vodka at the
WCTU?
Well you've heard about the agents that we've already named
Well
MPA has agents that are flauntedly unashamed
We're after
Rosie
Clooney, we've gotten
Pinkie
Lee
And the day we get
Red
Skelton won't that be a victory
Oh we're the
John
Birch
Society, the
John
Birch
Society
Norman
Vincent
Peale may think he's kidding us along
But the
John
Birch
Society knows he spilled the beans
He keeps on preaching brotherhood, but we know what he means
We'll teach you how to spot 'em in the cities or the sticks
For even
Jasper
Junction is just full of
Bolsheviks
The
CIA's subversive and so's the
FCCThere's no one left but thee and we, and we're not sure of thee
Oh, we're the
John
Birch
Society, the
John
Birch
Society
Here to save our country from a communistic plot
Join the
John
Birch
Society holding off the
Reds
We'll use our hand and hearts and if we must we'll use our heads
Do you want
Justice
Warren for your
Commissar?
Do you want
Mrs.
Krushchev in there with the
DAR?
You cannot trust your neighbor or even next of kin
If mommie is a commie then you gotta turn her in
Oh, we're the
John
Birch
Society, the
John
Birch
Society
Fighting for the right to fight the right fight for the
Right
Join the
John
Birch
Society as we're marching on
And we'll all be glad to see you when we're meeting in the
John
The
John, the
John
Birch
So- ci- i- teee.
