Oh, bring me my usual, Charles, what a day this has been Citizens' groups are camped out on my doorstep again They're yelling they want all pollution cleaned up yesterday Lord, I many have to call out the army to chase 'em away How I wish they'd go away or shut up or die Now ITT wants me to put down some labor dispute Perhaps I should just send the troops out with orders to shoot Can't the fools see it's their jobs if that company fails? Now your average slob just can't understand business details How I wish they'd go away or shut up or die Yeah, bring me another, those critics are driving me mad They say we've got too many laws, the whole system's gone bad They bitch of excessive policing then whine about crime Hell, why'd they elect me then, come around wasting my time? How I wish they'd go away or shut up or die Ah, make that a double; I swear I am fed up to here Hell, if citizens ran it, the world would go broke in a year They claim we're controlling too much and we're doing it wrong Do they think that the country could run by itself very long? How I wish they'd go away or shut up or die Anybody else here ever come from Chicago, ever live in Chicago? Then you'll understand I'm probably still voting there, yep Since they're giving me ulcers it's fair I should see them all hanged Yeah, declare some emergency, draft 'em for forced labor gangs If those nattering mobs can't see reason Well they'll understand force Pbhat- what's in this drink, Charles? It tastes like it came from a horse Yuck! Uhuh How we wish you'd go away or shut up or die, shut up or die We wish you'd go away, shut up, or die
