Tune of If You're Happy And You Know It (D major; starts on A)
If you're socialist and
know it, clap your hands!
If you're socialist and
know it, clap your hands!
If you're socialist and
know it, and you're not afraid to show it,
If you're socialist and
know it, clap your hands!
If you're for the public
schools, raise your hand.
If you're for the public
schools, raise your hand.
If you're for the public
schools, and support
the golden rule,
You're for socialistic
schools--raise your hand.
If you're for your fire
department, stamp your feet!
If you're for your fire
department, stamp your feet!
If you call your fire
department, when there's smoke in your
apartment,
You're a socialist-on-fire,
so stamp your feet!
If you love your kids and
grannies, shout "hurray"!
If you love your kids and
grannies, shout "hurray"!
If security is social, about medicare be
vocal,
If you want a public
option--shout "hurray"!
If you want your public
broadcast ... gimme five!
If you want your public library
… gimme five!
If you think we ought to
keep 'em, and the country really needs 'em,
You're a socialist like me
then--gimme five!
If you're commie and you
know it, just keep still!
If you're capitalist and
know it, just keep still!
If you just want health and
freedom, social programs when you need 'em
Then don't let the labels
stop you — DON'T KEEP
STILL!
