Janis Ian - God & the FBI lyrics

[Janis Ian - God & the FBI lyrics]

Mamma's makin' mimeos, Pete's on the stereo
Singing 'bout freedom, bugs in the bedroom
Big investigation danger to the nation
Search and seizure, better buy a lawyer
"We know you're a member saw you under cover
Are you hiding evidence?"
None of this makes any sense

They called the FBI (FBI) i had to disappear
Called the T-men, G-men
See you-at-the-scene men
Told 'em I was hiding here
They could fingerprint my heart
I knew it from the start
Ain't no place for a face to hide
From God and the FBI

Commies, pinkos, reds at the windows
Foreign agitators running elevators
J edgar Hoover in a pink tutu
Investigating anyone who thinks like a you
Welcome to the fifties
You look a little shifty

They called the FBI (FBI) i had to disappear
They called the T-men, G-men
DNA-the-scene men told 'em I was hiding here
They could fingerprint my heart
I knew it from the start
Ain't no hole for a soul to hide
From God and the FBI

(Ha, ha, ha)

Stay flat, don't rat, what's a proletariat?
Stalin was a Democrat Washington
Is where it's at
Every politician is a sewer of ambition
Hide me, hide you better hide the baby too
"We demand an interview
How long have you been a Jew?
We can make you testify freedom is no alibi"

They called the FBI (FBI) i had to disappear
They called the T-men, G-men
See you-at-the-scene men
Told 'em I was hiding here
They could fingerprint my heart
I knew it from the start
Ain't no place for a face to hide
From God and the FBI
