Introduction/What This Country Really Needs Is Another Movie Star lyrics

[Intro]
Negro
(Neh-gruh)
Negro
('Swot I sed, neh-gruh)
No, negro
(Nee-gruh)
Negro, oh
(Nee-gro)
Negro
(Nee-gro)
One more time, negro
(Negro)
That's fine
(Dr. King, you can come in now
The president will see you)

[Verse 1]
Do you worry about Vietnam? Do you fear the NATO split?
Do you dream about the national debt? That doesn't help a bit! Don't fear Red China's bomb threat, don't cry for the old UN
Just remember that the republicans are comin' back again

[Verse 2]
They know that what this country really needs is another movie star
No one else can steal those leads like another movie star
Ron Reagan is the governor, George Murphy in DC
Now, to complete the picture all we need is Sandra Dee
'Cause bonny Ronny Reagan knows experience pays
So California, better get set for "Death Valley Days"
[Verse 3]
Won't it be great when we can say, "All the senate is a stage"?
Put politics where it belongs - on the amusement page
And though our next president may not have scored in the senate Or supreme court or the cabinet, my Lord
Hey, won't it be fun to know he won an Academy Award?
Because the country needs another movie star

[Bridge]
Margaret Smith, you better Chase
'Cause Patty Duke is gettin' in the race
And over in France, won't it be groovy
Bardot as Premier and DeGaulle in a movie?
Tuesday Weld, you'll make it, too
When Justice Douglas marries you, whoa-ho
Even England's makin' the scene
Ringo's next in line for Queen

[Verse 4]
Oh, gee, it's nice to see the GOP with such a grand old plan
They may not have a leader anymore, but they've got a leading man
And now we'll be safe, for if someone slips
And the finger on that little old red button was tripped
Why, it simply wouldn't matter, folks, it wasn't in the script
That's why the country needs another movie star, yeth sir

[Verse 5]
Now, Lyndon is smarter, and Hubert's more clever
But the GOP knows movies are better than ever
So everybody sing, "The Stars and Stars Forever"
(Well, after all George Murphy danced his way into the congress And Ronald Reagan acted his way into a governorship
Yeah, and George Hamilton - well, he's doin' the best he can)
'Cause we need a movie
A groovy, groovy movie
Hey, don't you love a pretty movie star?
