The Selling Of America

Gonna take a message to mother

Tell her that I’ll be home soon

Let her know I’m still undercover

Hiding out behind the moon

The selling of America

Is going on now town by town

The selling of America

You better keep it underground

Better get a message to Martha

Tell her that our workers are doomed

Better call on General McArthur

Tell him the invasion is due

The selling of America

Is going on now town by town

The selling of America

You better keep it underground

Here come the dollar bombers

Better get the word to the boss man

A wire from the industry spy

Tell him that they’re over the border

Trying out the White House for size

The selling of America

Is going on now town by town

The selling of America

You better keep it underground

The selling of America

Is going on now town by town

The selling of America

You better keep it underground
