The Man

Smile! There’s The Man!

Bow and scrape to The Man.
Cater to The Man.
Sing pretty for The Man.
Please The Man.

Make The Man think you think like him!

Don’t let him know you.
Don’t let him see you.
Don’t let yourself get into a jam.
Please The Man.

Get busy! Here comes The Man!

You have nowhere to go.
You have nothing to do.
You have no one to be.
Please The Man.

Say “Good morning, your lordship!”

Keep mama fed.
Keep baby quiet.
Keep the money rolling.
Please The Man.

Look out! Here he comes again!

Keep America strong.
Keep the progress moving.
Keep everybody happy—
Keep almost everybody happy—
Keep The Man happy.

Praise The Man!
