Did You Know?

Did You Know?

Did you know, did you know,
That the whole round world
Is going to have to live
The American way,
As interpreted by Bundy
And L.B.J.,
Did you know, did you know, did you know?

Did you know, did you know,
That the whole round world,
Four billion people
Of every shade and hue,
Is going to have to do
As the Americans do,
Did you know, did you know, did you know?

Did you know, did you know,
That the whole world round
Is going to have democracy
Rammed down it's neck
On the model of Trujillo
And Chiang Kai Shek
Did you know, did you know, did you know?

Did you know that Americans
Who can't find jobs
Are going into training
Controlling mobs--
People on the march
Who are trying to say
That they don't want to live
The American way
As interpreted by Bundy
And the C.I.A.
Did you know, did you know, did you know?

Did you know that Americans
Fight and die For Texaco oil
The whole world round
And a Madison Avenue
In every town
Did you know, did you know, did you know?

Did you know, did you know
We've a beautiful role
America the Virtuous
To save the world's soul
The little Bobbie Bakers
The hucksters and the fakers
The gangster empire that nobody stops
General Electric
And the New York cops
Did you know, did you know, did you know?
