Now look her Joe quit acting smart   Stop being that old brazen sort   Don’t you go sellin’ this country short?   No, no, Joe      Just because you think you’ve found   The system that we know ain’t sound   Don’t you go throwin’ your weight around?   No, no Joe      Coz the Kaiser tried and Hitler tried it   Mussolini tried it too   Now they’re all suttin’ around a fire and did you know   They’re saving place for you      Now Joe you ought to get it clear   You can’t push folks around with fear   Coz we don’t scare easy over here   No, no Joe      What makes you do the things you do?   You getting’ folks mad at you   Don’t bite off more than you can chew?   No, no Joe      Coz you want a scrap that you can’t win   You don’t know what you’re getting in   Don’t you go around leading with your chin?   No, no Joe      Now you got tanks some fair size tanks   But you’re acting like a clown   Don’t go Yanks a mess of Yanks   And you might get caught with your tanks down      Don’t go throwin’ out your chest   You’ll pop the buttons off you vest   You’re playing with a hornet’s nest   No, no Joe      You know you think you’re somebody we should dread   Just because you’re seeing red   You better get that foolishness out of your head   No, no Joe      And you might be itching for a fight   Quit braggin’ about how your bear can bite   Coz you’re sitting on a keg of dynamite   No, no Joe
