Declaration of Independence
(Jefferson)
C'mon and put your name on the dotted line
(Franklin)
I got to be particular what I sign
(Jefferson)
It's just a piece of paper...
(Franklin)
Just a piece of paper, that's what you say
(Jefferson)
C'mon and put your signature on the list
(Franklin)
It looks to have a very subversive twist...
(Jefferson)
So silly to assume it, won't you nom de plume it today?
You're so skittish, who possibly could care if you do?
(Franklin)
The UnBritish Activities Committee, that's who!
(Jefferson)
Let's have a little drink-o and fill the quill...
(Franklin)
It sounds a little pinko to me, but still...
(Jefferson)
Knock off the timid manner if you want a banner to wave
(Franklin)
Banner to wave
(Jefferson and Franklin)
You must take (I must take) a stand (a stand)
For this brave (for this brave) new land (new land)
For who wants (who wants) to live (to live)
So conserv- (so conserv-) ative (ative)
(Franklin and Jefferson)
I don't dis (he don't dis) agree (agree)
(Together)
But a man can't be too careful what he signs these days!
