I’ll take Oingo Boingo

Capitalism

There’s nothing wrong with the capitalism
There’s nothing wrong with free enterprise
Don’t try to make me feel guilty
I’m so tired of hearing you cry
There’s nothing wrong with making some profit
If you ask me, I’ll say it’s just fine
There’s nothing wrong with wanting to live nice
I’m so tired of hearing you whine
About the revolution or bringin’ down the rich
When was the last time you dug a ditch, baby?!

[Verse 2]
If it ain’t one thing, then it’s the other
Any cause that crosses your path
Your heart bleeds for anyone’s brother
I’ve got to tell you you’re a pain in the ass
You criticize with plenty of vigor
You rationalize everything that you do
With catchy phrases and heavy quotations
And everybody is crazy but you

[Chorus]
You’re just a middle class socialist brat
From a suburban family and you never really had to work
And you tell me that you’ve got to get back
To the struggling masses (whoever they are)
You talk, talk, talk about the suffering and pain
Your mouth is bigger than your entire brain
What the hell do you know about suffering and pain, you dumb f___?

LOL

I was wanting him to get around to Zappa’s opinion of it all. That must be in the sequel.

Indeed. "Only a Lad" is definitely anti-leftist as well.
