Now look here Joe
Quit acting smart
Stop being that old brazen sort
Don't you go selling 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 throwing your weight around
No, no Joe
Cause the Kaiser tried it
And Hitler tried it
Mussolini tried it too
Now they're all sitting around a fire
And did you know something?
They're saving a place for you
Now Joe you ought to get it clear
You can't push folks around with fear
Cause 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
Cause you want a scrap that you can't win
You don't know what you're getting in
Don't go around leading with your chin
No, no Joe
Now you got tanks
Some fair size tanks
But you're acting like a clown
Cause man we've got Yanks
A mess of Yanks
And you might get caught
With your tanks down
Don't go throwing out your chest
You'll pop the buttons off your vest
You're playing with a hornets' 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 bragging about how your bear can bite
Cause you're sitting on a keg of dynamite
No, no Joe
