O gather round you bully boys
and hear just what I say
We have a Great Society
in the good old U.S.A.
So listen, nations of the earth
We give our promise true
If you don't obey your Uncle Sam
his troops will visit you
And we'll honor our commitment
honor our commitment
Even if the world goes up
in a smoke of a mushroom cloud
And we'll honor our commitment
honor our commitment
Get buried with our brothers
in one great communal shroud
Nor, widows like candy canes
and orphans all like jam
And bandaids come in handy
for the wounded in Vietnam
So send your package out today
to the homeless kids and wives,
We're sure the ones we haven't killed
will love us all their lives
And we'll honor our commitment
honor our committment
Even if the world goes up
in a smoke of a mushroom cloud
And we'll honor our commitment
honor our committment
Get buried with our brothers
in one great communal shroud
We're shocked to death at India,
enraged at Pakistan
So we're told Arthur Goldberg
to denounce them, man to man
There in the UN's sacred hells
we've rained a mighty fuss
Cease Fire, we tell all nations
that means everyone but us.
And we'll honor our commitment
honor our committment
Even if the world goes up
in a smoke of a mushroom cloud
And we'll honor our commitment
honor our commitment
Get buried with our brothers
in one great communal shroud
These Latin revolutions, now,
we watch 'em like a bask
And when we try to lend a hand
we can't an why they squawk
If only those Dominicans
would follow in our trade
Then soldiers wouldn't feel obliged
to shoot them in the back
And we'll honor our commitment
honor our commitment
Even if the world goes up
in a smoke of a mushroom cloud
And we'll honor our commitment
honor our commitment
Get buried with our brothers
in one great communal shroud
and hear just what I say
We have a Great Society
in the good old U.S.A.
