lyrics

This is the president, Lyndon B. Johnson
How is the accused assassin?
Would you take a message to
The chief operating surgeon?
There’s a man in the room, tell him now what I tell you
To take a deathbed confession
With that the phone went off, the doctor was left
With a lasting impression
For the rest of his life, and when he spoke was criticized
But the switchboard operator remembered

You’re in the news today, sweetheart
With your chin up and your chest out
In the New York Daily News, Caroline and John-John too
All three of you there look wonderful
You look so pretty there, so gorgeous in fact
It is right here on my desk
I got things I’m signing too, but I just called to flirt with you
Jacqueline replied, “How sweet”
Jacqueline replied, “How sweet”

I’ll tell you another thing about these pants I need
With the crotch down where ya nuts hang
It is always too tight, try to make these new ones right
And give me another inch I can let out there
It’s like I’m riding on a fence of wire
And these pants, they always cut me
Just add another inch, starting from where
The zipper ends, out to my bunghole

You ever hear about the man who’s bent down
With his wrists tied to his ankles?
The fellow that captured him, walked into the room
Sized him up and began unzipping
The man said no, mister please, won’t you have mercy on me
He said I’m sorry this just ain’t your day
Boys, that’s just like me today
Not a thing has gone my way
Not a thing has gone my way
