Fred

Voice in Crowd: I think I've seen you somewhere,
I remember. You were with Welles Hangen the Journalist,
the star from NBC

Fred: You got the wrong man, lady
I don't know him and I never worked on news reports,
don't even watch TV.

Another Voice in crowd: I'm sure I saw you once on
Face the Nation.
Your anti-war stand put you in command.

Fred:It wasn't me, I couldn't disgrace the nation.

Another, another voice in crowd: It sure wasn't you,
you're too red, white and blue.

What's the news

What's the news, tell me what's happening.
What's the news, tell me what's happening.
What's the news, tell me what's happening.

Hang on Welles, we're going to fight for you
Hang on Welles, we're going to fight for you
Hang on Welles, we're going to fight for you

Welles: Put away your guns, don't you know the story's over
it was nice, but now it's gone.
Why are you obsessed with fighting,
stick to reporting from now on.

Crowd: Tell me Welles, what's the news tonight ?
why didn't you keep out of sigt ?
what do you think of Prince Si-hanouck ?
don't you think you should've learned to cook ?
do you think you'll get a fair trial ?
was your news crew at all worthwhile ?
what do you think of that Air Force flier ?
do you think you'll retire ?
Tell me Welles, what's the news tonight ?

Welles: WHY DON'T YOU GO FLY A KITE !!!!

Crowd: Now we have him, now we've got him
Now we have him, now we've got him
Now we have him, now we've got him
take him to the Prince, take him to the Prince.

Betrayed

We are now gathered, plotting an ending,
we need information, to get rid of Welles.

We have the papers, we need to arrest him,
you know his movements, we have the jails.

You're help in this matter, wouldn't go unrewarded,
we'll pay you in yen, yes 10 billion of them

We just need to know where the soldiers can find him,
for your betrayal, we'll pay you in yen,in yen, in yen
12 billion of them.

For your betrayal, we'll pay you in yen,in yen, in yen
12 billion of them.

I don't know how to sell this

Hanoi Hannah: I don't know how to tell them,
what to say, how to move them.
Make them leave, yes really leave.
In these past few days, when I read the news.
Leave before you lose.

I don't know how to tell this,
I don't know how to sell this.
Johnson's mad, yes, really bad.
He's sending you men to fight a war,
in very many ways, he's just a bore.

You should leave your troops, you should shoot your sarge,
take a hand grenade, plant it on a barge.
Now you've joined the VC ranks, isn't it a charge ?

Don't you think it's rather funny,
your governments in this position.
They've been wrong, for so very long,
the Generals hot and smoking pot, running every show,
You're troops must go.

Why not join the VC ranks ?
bring along a tank.

And, if you say you'll join us, we'll put you in our contest.
Win a car, or stock your bar.
I'd join our side, and walk away,
you really better know, yur troops should go,
your troops should go, your troops should go.
your troops Must go.

Everything's Alright ???

Hanoi Hannah: Try not to get worried, why don't you turn onto
smack and some good grass or horse ?
Don't you know Everythings alright, yes Everythings fine
and I want you to freak out tonight,
let the news go without you tonight.
If we try, we'll get high, so forget all about it tonight.
Everythings alright, yes, everythings alright.

Roll up your right sleeve and pick out a nice vein,
and in just a few minutes, oh
Then you'll feel everythings alright, yes everythings fine
and it's groovy and you'll freak right out.
Yes, its such a nice and easy route.
Take a fix, take a fix and shoot up think of nothing, tonight.
Everythings alright, yes, everythings alright.

Flunky: Hannah, you not only spread propaganda,
now you are a drug pusher too.
You want us to freak out
then it'll be easy, for you to spread your cheap news.
Lies of our intentions, lies of our desires
You just want to try to confuse the facts.

Hanoi Hannah: Try not to get worried, why don't you turn onto
smack and some good grass or horse ?
Don't uou know Everythings alright, yes Everythings fine
and I want you to freak out tonight,
let the news go without you tonight.
If we try, we'll get high, so forget all about it tonight.
Everythings alright, yes, everythings alright.

Welles: Surely, you're not saying that you can see to it
the world hears nothing but the truth.
There will be lies always, so since I don't use grass,
give me a glass of vermouth.
We might as well relax, there's even no booze tax,
and if you like, even the grass is cheap.

Hanoi Hannah: Roll up your right sleeve and pick out a nice vein,
and in just a few minutes, oh
Then you'll feel everythings alright, yes everythings fine
and it's groovy and you'll freak right out.
Yes, its such a nice and easy route.
Take a fix, take a fix and shoot up think of nothing, tonight.
Everythings alright, yes, everythings alright.
