[00:00.107]In every American community,
[00:01.430]you have varying shades of political opinion.
[00:04.190]One of the shadiest of these is the liberals.
[00:14.633]An outspoken group on many subjects.
[00:18.117]Ten degrees to the left of center in good times,
[00:21.482]ten degrees to the right of center
[00:22.824]if it affects them personally.
[00:30.756]So here, then, is a lesson in safe logic.
[00:33.774]
[00:36.193]I cried when they shot Medgar Evers
[00:40.835]Tears ran down my spine
[00:44.263]And I cried when they shot Mr. Kennedy
[00:48.276]As though I'd lost a father of mine
[00:52.460]But Malcolm X got what was coming
[00:56.463]He got what he asked for this time
[01:00.086]So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
[01:05.113]
[01:07.650]Get it?
[01:15.702]I go to civil rights rallies
[01:19.274]And I put down the old D.A.R.
[01:22.694](D.A.R., that's the Dykes of the American Revolution)
[01:27.414]I love Harry and Sidney and Sammy
[01:30.810]I hope every colored boy becomes a star
[01:34.541]But don't talk about revolution
[01:38.350]That's going a little bit too far
[01:42.074]So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
[01:47.662]
[01:49.709]I cheered when Humphrey was chosen
[01:53.700]My faith in the system restored
[01:57.274]I'm glad that the Commies were thrown out
[02:00.825]Of the A.F.L. C.I.O. board
[02:04.575]And I love Puerto Ricans and Negros
[02:08.369]As long as they don't move next door
[02:12.466]So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
[02:17.074]
[02:19.791]Ah, the people of old Mississippi
[02:23.809]Should all hang their heads in shame
[02:27.384]Now, I can't understand how their minds work
[02:31.030]What's the matter don't they watch Les Crane?
[02:34.966]But if you ask me to bus my children
[02:38.964]I hope the cops take down your name
[02:42.725]So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
[02:47.630]
[02:50.033]Yes, I read New Republic and Nation
[02:53.929]I've learned to take every view
[02:57.391]You know, I've memorized Lerner and Golden
[03:00.978]I feel like I'm almost a Jew
[03:04.714]But when it comes to times like Korea
[03:08.600]There's no one more red, white and blue
[03:12.511]So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
[03:17.416]
[03:20.037]I vote for the Democratic party
[03:23.724]They want the U.N. to be strong
[03:27.116]I attend all the Pete Seeger concerts
[03:30.761]He sure gets me singing those songs
[03:34.309]And I'll send all the money you ask for
[03:38.100]But don't ask me to come on along
[03:41.973]So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
[03:46.698]
[03:50.234]Sure, once I was young and impulsive
[03:54.307]I wore every conceivable pin
[03:57.886]Even went to socialist meetings
[04:01.547]Learned all the old union hymns
[04:05.362]Ah, but I've grown older and wiser
[04:09.593]And that's why I'm turning you in
[04:13.689]So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
