He`s your uncle not your dad, he`s the
best friend you ever had
So come on dig, dig, dig in until it hurts
Just remember Pearl Harbor

(The Alamos and nothing could be worse) 

He`s your favorite relative 
and he needs a lot to live
So just bring, bring, 
bring everything until you bleed

(And he`ll send back what he don`t need) 

If your not in form ten-forty`s your salvation
By deprivation of temptation

(Dark and blondes I hear are not deductible) 

Oh say can you see if there`s anything left for me
When he calls you as he may do
Don`t be frightened red white and blue
Just be thankful you don`t live in Leningrad
He`s your uncle, not your dad

If your honest you don`t have to shake and shiver
The food is lousy up the river

(It`s give and take and he does all the taking) 

Oh say can you see if there`s anything left for me
Life has two things you can`t subtract

(Death and taxes to be exact) 

So just pa-pa-patriotically declare
He`s your uncle, he`s your uncle, not your dad
