Dear Margaret I beg of you
Dear Margaret gonna tell on you
Don't want to be patronized

By those lying eyes
Dear Margaret I wanted you


You're warming me up
So you can leave me cold
Kissin' up to the rich

Intending to control
All the money money money
Is that all you live for

You're a model and example
Of a greed that will destroy


Dear Margaret I beg of you
Don't you like Rock 'n' Roll
Dear Margaret gonna tell on you

I like your wiggle when you walk
Dear Margaret I trusted you
Don't you let me down

Dear Margaret I wanted you

You had me living the illusion

To be a millionaire
Investing in stocks
Look at you now stringin' other guys along

You're into swinging
Now the money is all gone


Dear Margaret I beg of you
Don't you like Rock 'n' Roll
Dear Margaret I trusted you


Your economic growth
And your cool suntan

But what have you done to your fellow man
You've betrated us all with just a
Wave of your hand

What good is prosperity
When it starves the soul in man


Dear Margaret I beg of you
Don't you like Rock 'n' Roll
Dear Margaret gonna tell on you

I like your wiggle when you walk

Don't want to be patronized

By those lying eyes
Dear Margaret I trusted you
Don't you let me down

Dear Margaret I wanted you
