Senator from Wisconsin,
Nobody knew 'til he begins,
To play upon the fears of the nation,
The Cold War in full effect,
Everyone's scared that Soviets,
And communists are hiding in our midst,
He'll say your name's on his list,
Even though it don't exist,
If you're the least suspicious,
McCarthyism has got you now,
He, he's gonna scream that you're a communist, a communist,
You're, you're gonna land on a black-list, on a black-list,
Joseph McCarthy craves power at the cost of your liberty,
You'll, you'll be accused of Un-American Activity,
So you better give him a name,
Give him someone else he can blame,
Or you're never working again, make a false claim, or accept the shame,
This is the Second Red Scare,
Seeing communists everywhere,
So you better go on and swear, that you hate Red Square, or say your prayers
McCarthy is a demagogue,
In reality, he's a drunken fraud,
But even Ike is wary to take him on,
He'll say your name's on his list,
Even though it don't exist,
If you're the least suspicious,
McCarthyism has got you now,
He, he's gonna scream that you're a communist, a communist
You're, you're gonna land on a black-list, on a black-list,
Joseph McCarthy craves power at the cost of your liberty,
You'll, you'll be accused of Un-American Activity,
But then he attacked the Army,
The public watched on TV,
Saw he had no decency, no decency, no decency,
McCarthyism would go on,
Long after Ol' Joe was gone,
'Cause the US gave into fear instead of ideas it was founded on
