Spoken:
You know took me a long time to get around to writin' a Watergate song. I think because...mainly because
in the beginning of Watergate it was pretty funny you know? So I said "oh! I'm gonna write one of them
funny Watergate..." you know:
C   F#dim  F
Watergate Watergate but
it sorta got past the point of bein' funny you know and went on to new bigger and better things.
And then I though "oh I better write one of those satyrical ballads." You know like:
(Played satyrically like a ballad)
but got past that point. So I never wrote a Watergate song. Until one day a little while ago
I was sitting around and I forgot all about Watergate. And I was sittin' around playin' the piano and
all of a sudden this song jumped out and wrote itself down. The next day Spiro resigned.
So I been writing a lot since!
[Intro]
You said you didn't know
That the cats with the bugs were there
And you'd never go along with that kind of stuff nowhere
But that just isn't the point man
That's the wrong wrong way to go
If you didn't know about that one well then what else don't you know?
You said that you were lied to
Well that ain't hard too see
But you must have been fooled again by your friends across the sea
And maybe you were fooled again by your people here at home
'Cause nobody could talk like you
And know what's going on
Nobody elected your family
And we didn't elect your friends
No one voted for your advisors
And nobody wants amends
You're the one we voted for so you must take the blame
For handing out authority to men who are insane
You say it's all fixed up now; you've got new guys on the line
But you had better remember this while you still got the time
Mothers still are weeping for their boys that went to war
and fathers are still asking what the whole damn thing was for
And people still are hungry and people still are poor
And an honest week of work these days don't feed the kids no more
Schools are still like prisons
Cuz we don't learn how to live
And everybody wants to take nobody wants to give
Yes you'll be remembered be remembered very well
And if I live a long life oh the stories I could tell!
Of men and wars and poverty. Of sickness and of greed
Hell yes
You'll be remembered be remembered very well
You said you didn't know
That the cats with the bugs were there
And you'd never go along with that kind of stuff nowhere
But that just isn't the point man
That's the wrong wrong way to go
If you didn't know about that one
Well then what else don't you know?
