The Lyrics

They tried to squelch that Jew--
They levied fines.
He told the FCC, "Screw you!"
And took flight,
Flight to satellite.

They had tried to ban him,
Now he ain't around
FM's big daddies.
He will grandstand, but he won't bow down.

They tried to squelch that Jew--
They levied fines.
Big fines.

"So, screw you!
So, screw you!
So, screw you!
So, screw you!" That he vowed
He's on the air,
Beyond FCC--
Signals beam down.

You hear him.
They tried to squelch that Jew. . .
Tame his airtime.

[fade on Howard Stern rant]
