"These are the laws of my administration No ones allowed to smoke Or tell a dirty joke And whistling is forbidden... If chewing gum is chewed The chewer is pursued. And in the hoosegow hidden... If any form of pleasure is exhibited Report to me and it will be prohibited. Ill put my foot down, so shall it be. This is the land of the free. The last man nearly ruined this place He didnt know what to do with it If you think this countrys bad off now Just wait til I get through with it The countrys taxes must be fixed And I know what to do with it If you think youre paying too much now Just wait til I get through with it... I will not stand for anything thats crooked or unfair Im strictly on the up and up So everyone beware If anyones caught taking graft And I dont get my share We stand em up against the wall And pop goes the weasel. If any man should come between her husband and his bride We find out which one she prefers By letting her decide If she prefers the other man The husband steps outside We stand em up against the wall And pop goes the weasel."

"Id be unworthy of the high trust thats been placed in me if I didnt do everything in my power to keep our beloved Freedonia at peace with the world. Id be only too happy to meet with Ambassador Trentino and offer him on behalf of my country the right hand of good fellowship. And I feel sure he will accept this gesture in the spirit of which it is offered. But suppose he doesnt? A fine thing thatll be. I hold out my hand and he refuses to accept. Thatll add a lot to my prestige, wont it? Me, the head of a country, snubbed by a foreign ambassador. Who does he think he is, that he can come here, and make a sap of me in front of all my people? Think of it! I hold out my hand and that hyena refuses to accept! Why, the cheap four-flushing swine! Hell never get away with it, I tell you! Hell never get away with it!"
