Barry's Boys

de Chad Mitchell Trio

We're the bright young men, who want to go back to Nineteen-Ten, we're Barry's boys
We're the kids with a cause, yes a government like grandmama's, we're Barry's boys
We're the new kind of youth at your alma mater
Back to silver standards and solid Goldwater
Back to when the poor were poor and rich were rich
And you felt so damn secure just knowing which were which
We're the kids who agree to be social without security, we're Barry's boys
'Cause his hat's in the ring where Westbrook Pegler once was king, now he's too left wing
So if you don't recognize any old Red China, or Canada, or Britain, or South Carolina
You too can join the crew, Tippecanoe and Nixon too
Back with Barry, back to cash and carry, back with Barry's boys

Why did the chicken cross the road? To get from the left to the right. Right
Roses are red, violets are blue, Walter Lippmann's a pinko, too. You got it, Joe
A-la-ka-nee, ka-nah, ka-nay, let's investigate the PTA
Barry, Barry, make your bid, I love John Birch, but oh you kid
Mother, mother, wear a grin, and don't complain, or we'll turn you in
Hold the presses, stop the mail, the Pentagon's having a one-cent sale
What's the latest news statistic? Hootenannies are socialist
Shut the door and lock and latch it, here comes Lizzie with a brand new hatchet

We're the kids full of nerve as long as it's conservative, we're Barry's boys
And we can't comprehend why our parents aren't friendlier to Barry's boys
Why Dad once crusaded for Sacco/Vanzetti
Now all we're doing is doing the same for John Paul Getty
Our parents emulated Roosevelt and Farley
But we just want to grow up to be like Ev and Charlie
No college days with Socrates or Plato, when you're Barry's boys
Just organize parades for the abolishment of NATO
And the rest, the entire West
So let's go back to the days when men were men, and start the First World War all over again
That's right you tell 'em son: 'Isolationism can be fun!
Back with Barry, back to cash and carry, back with Barry's

And remember, 'I'm an American first, and a politician second
Spoken like a true American politician

Back with Barry, not with Lyndon, Ike or Harry, back with Barry's boys
