George Murphy

歌詞

During the last election we had a good deal Of fun back east following your senatorial Contest out here. I'm from Massachusetts, And I feel that we have a certain right to Gloat over the other states because Massachusetts Is after all the only state with three senators. Anyway, here's a salute to your new junior senator: Hollywood's often tried to mix Show business with politics From Helen Gahagan To Ronald Reagan? But Mr. Murphy is the star Who's done the best by far Oh, gee, it's great! At last we've got a senator who can really sing and dance We can't expect America to win against its foes With no one in the Senate who can really tap his toes The movies that you've seen On your television screen Show his legislative talents at a glance. Should Americans pick crops? George says: "No!" 'Cause no one but a Mexican would stoop so low And after all, even in Egypt, the pharaohs Had to import Hebrew braceros Think of all the musicals we have in store Imagine: Broadway Melody of Nineteen Eighty-Four Yes, now that he's a Senator, he's really got the chanc To give the public a song and dance!
