There was an Amos and Andy on the radio
 And a man on a hill runnin' round don't you know
 Sayin' "ev'rybody here got to go"
 Sayin' "ev'rybody here got to go"

 There were some people out in Hollywood
 The words they had spoken it was well understood
 But three thousand miles and for ev'ryone's good
 A man stood singing his song

 Dancin' around all the tombstones he said
 "That a man if he's livin' would rather be dead"
 And he opened the eyes to the typewriter lead
 And he said, "Now it won't be too long."
 (Repeat chorus)

 The people they gathered from miles all around
 Like a Sunday in Salem they all could be found
 And the lights all went out with a deafening sound
 As the church bells rang once again

 The curtains were drawn and the prophets had cried
 When somebody screamed that the joker had lied
 But the damage was done and the saints crucified
 And the truth will be lost till the end
 (Repeat Chorus
