Verse 1
Many of the (G major) Foreman's songs
were topical in nature,
and for external use only.
Now the problem with topical songs
is that they go out of date so fast.
Remember the McKinley assassination (D major) rag,
for instance?
I didn't think (G major) so.
Well, in 1994, (D major) President Bill Clinton
fired his Surgeon (G major) General,
Joycelyn Elders,
for suggesting that sex education
(D major) should include individual (G major) study.
The foremen got right on it,
and when they were done,
they performed this seminal (D major) song. (G major) (C major)
(D major) You (G major) can't come in,
I (D major) hear you knockin'
You can (G major) 't come in,
(D major) I hear you knockin'
(G major) You can't come in,
cause I'm (C major) firing the
(D major) Surgeon Gen (G major) eral (C major)
(D major) You can't (G major) come in, (D major) I hear you knockin'
You (G major) can't come in, (D major) I hear you knockin'
But you can't (G major) come in,
cause I'm (C major) firing the (D major) Surgeon Gen (G major) eral
I used to (C major) flog the dolphin,
used to choke the chicken,
used to spank the monkey,
used to (G major) pull with the tool
I used to (C major) whip the bishop,
used to wax the weasel
But (A major) now I learned one
they nev (D major) er taught in school
You (G major) can't come in, I (D major) hear you knocking
But you (G major) can't come in,
(D major) I hear you knocking
But you (G major) can't come in,
cause I'm (C major) firing the (D major) Surgeon Gen (G major) eral
I used to (C major) whack the bobbit,
used to knead the noodle,
used to charm the cobra,
used to (G major) ponder pointillism,
I used to (C major) free the willy,
used to pat the Robertson,
but (A major) now I got me a new (D major) euphemism.
You (G major) can't come in, (D major) I hear you knocking,
but you (G major) can't come in,
cause (D major) (G major) a (C major) fire in the
(D major) Surgeon Gen (G major) eral.
(G minor) (G major) (C major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) I used (G major) to (F major)
(C major) (D major) (G major) (B flat major) think I'd need analysis
Get phalluses full of calluses
Go (A flat major) blind, lose my (E flat major) mind
Be romantic (A flat major) ally dis (E flat major) inclined
I used to (B flat major) think I'd never be mollified
Or qualified at all if I'd go to (A flat major) work
As a (E flat major) clerk
Try to (A flat major) be anything but a (E flat major) jerk
But (F major) now I'm on a dancing show
I'm jumping like a trout
Because I (G major) found a way to bat it,
and make a living at it.
Yeah, (C major) I got into politics
and I'm (D major) never coming, never coming,
I'm never coming out.
You (G major) can't come in, (D major)
I hear you knocking,
but you (G major) can't come in. (D major)
I check the lock and (A major) say you
(G major) can't come in,
because I'm (C major) firing the
(D major) Surgeon General. (G major)
Be (C major) cause I'm firing the
(D major) Surgeon General. (G major)
Because I'm (C major) firing the (D major) (G major)
Because I'm (C major) firing the (D major) Surgeon Gener (G major) al.
