Insulting, offensive, sothronophobic, sure. But Bob Denver's in a suit and tie, and the lyrics are clever.

And basically, the KKK is gone woke and changed its name to Antifa, but not its game, pushing bigotry, hatred and violence. So therefore, I say the song is prescient.

Insulting? It insults liberals and the KKK.

Do you understand obvious satire?

All of the folk singer from the 1960s were closet communists (except the ones who admitted it).

Not sure if John Denver was on this recording. If you were active in the conservative movement in the early 1960s, you'll get a kick out of this.

Barry's Boys--The Chad Mitchell Trio (1964)

We're the bright young men who want to go back to 1910
We're Barry Boys.
We're the kids with a cause, a government like Grandma's was,
We're Barry's Boys.
We're the new kind of youth at your alma mater,
Back to silver standards and solid Goldwater.
Back to when the poor were poor and rich were rich
And you felt so damn secure just knowing which were which.

We're the kids who agree to be social without security,
We're Barry's boys.
Now his hat's in the ring, where Westbrook Pegler once was king, now he's too left-wing.
So if you don't want to recognize that old Red China,
Or Canada, or Britain, or South Carolina,
You, too can join the crew.
Tippecanoe and Nixon, too.
Back with Barry, back to cash and carry,
Back with Barry's Boys.

We're the kids full of nerve, as long as it's conservative,
We're Barry's Boys.
And we can't comprehend why our parents aren't friendlier to Barry's Boys.
Why, Dad once crusaded for Sacco and Vanzetti,
And now, we're doing the same for John Paul Getty.
Our parents emulated Roosevelt and Farley,
While we just want to grow up like Ev and Charlie.Mbr> There are no college days for Socrates and Plato when you're Barry's Boys.
Just organize parades for the abolishment of NATO and the rest, the entire West
So let's go back to the days when men were men and start the First World War all over again.
That's right, you tell 'em, son,
Isolationism can be fun.
Back with Barry, back to cash & carry,
Back with Barry's Boys!
