Watch out cause he's waking up the nation,
|
You'd better lock your sons and daughters up,
|
His airwaves hit your brain from all directions,
|
The thought police have pushed him far enough.
|
The FCC can't shut him down, he wears that fifth amendment like a crown.
|
Up he steps the King of all the media, he doesn't run, he would never hide.
|
He's got the guts to come on out and say what, from any other mouth is suicide.
|
He hears innuendo in all you say, he'll crawl under your skin like DNA.
|
|
Talking bout a name that everyone knows - he's gonna tie you up, he's gonna put you down.
|
Eloquent and brutal with the truth - he's no coward.
|
Step into his mind and anything goes - if you can't relate, why you hangin round?
|
The cure for repression - I got good news - here's Howard!
|
|
There was a time when I would tremble, control freaks getting bolder every day,
|
And talking governmental inquisitions what I'd be thinking I could never say.
|
Free Speech was doomed to be, an ancient relic of society.
|
|
Talking bout a name that everyone knows - he's gonna tie you up, he's gonna put you down.
|
Eloquent and brutal with the truth - he's no coward.
|
Step into his mind and anything goes - if you can't relate, why you hangin round?
|
The cure for repression - I got good news - Howard!
