GOD & THE FBI
(Janis Ian)
MAMA'S MAKING MIMEOS
PETE'S ON THE STEREO
SINGING 'BOUT FREEDOM
BUGS IN THE BEDROOM
BIG INVESTIGATION
BE PATIENT
BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW
YOU WERE A DANGER TO THE NATION
SEARCH AND SEIZURE
BUY YOURSELF A LAWYER
WE KNOW YOU'RE A MEMBER
SAW YOU UNDER COVER
ARE YOU HIDING EVIDENCE
NONE OF THIS MAKES ANY SENSE
(chorus)
THEY CALLED THE FBI
I HAD TO DISAPPEAR
CALLED THE G-MEN, T-MEN, SEE YOU AT THE SCENE MEN
TOLD 'EM I WAS HIDING HERE
THEY COULD FINGERPRINT MY HEART
THEY'D TEAR MY WORLD APART
'CAUSE AIN'T NO PLACE FOR A FACE TO HIDE
FROM GOD AND THE FBI
COMMIES, PINKOS
REDS AT THE WINDOWS
FOREIGN AGITATORS
RUNNING ELEVATORS
J. EDGAR HOOVER IN A PINK TUTU
INVESTIGATING ANYONE WHO THINKS LIKE YOU
WELCOME TO THE FIFTIES
YOU LOOK A LITTLE SHIFTY
THEY CALLED THE FBI
I HAD TO DISAPPEAR
CALLED THE G-MEN, T-MEN, SEE YOU AT THE SCENE MEN
TOLD 'EM I WAS HIDING HERE
THEY COULD FINGERPRINT MY HEART
TEAR MY WORLD APART
AIN'T NO HOLE FOR A SOUL TO HIDE
FROM GOD AND THE FBI
STAY FLAT, DON'T RAT
WHAT'S A PROLETARIAT
STALIN WAS A DEMOCRAT
WASHINGTON IS WHERE IT'S AT
EVERY POLITICIAN
IS A SEWER OF AMBITION
HIDE ME, HIDE YOU
BETTER HIDE THE BABY TOO
WE DEMAND AN INTERVIEW
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A JEW
WE CAN MAKE YOU TESTIFY
FREEDOM IS NO ALIBI
THEY CALLED THE FBI
I HAD TO DISAPPEAR
CALLED THE G-MEN, T-MEN, SEE YOU AT THE SCENE MEN
TOLD 'EM I WAS HIDING HERE
FINGERPIRNT MY HEART
TEAR MY WORLD APART
'CAUSE AIN'T NO PLACE FOR A FACE TO HIDE
FROM GOD AND THE FBI
