G                      D
Hey Ronnie Reagan, I'm black and I'm pagan,
    A                        D
I'm gay and I'm left and I'm free.
      G                  D
I'm a non-fundamentalist environmentalist,
A                   D
Please don't bother me.


[Verse]
          D
You're so cool, playing poker with death as the joker,
       A                        D
You've nerve, but you don't reassure us.
           D
With those paranoid vistas of mad Sandanistas,
        A                    D
Are you really defending Honduras?
       G                            D
We can dig shelter holes when we've bartered our souls,
     A                   D
For security then we can shovel.
          G                           D
While the myth of our dreams turns to nightmares, it seems,
         A                                D
From the White House straight back to the hovel.


[Chorus]

G                      D
Hey Ronnie Reagan, I'm black and I'm pagan,
    A                        D
I'm gay and I'm left and I'm free.
      G                  D
I'm a non-fundamentalist environmentalist,
A                   D
Please don't bother me.


[Verse]
          D
You'll be wearing the green down at Ballyporeen,
    A                  D
The town of the little potato.
         D
Put your arms around Garret and dangle your carrot,
           A                    D
But you'll never get me to join NATO .
     G                         D
Your dollars may beckon, but I think we should reckon,
    A                      D
The cost of accepting your gold.
      G                        D
If we join your alliance, what price our defiance,
       A                      D
What's left if our freedom is sold?

[Chorus]

G                      D
Hey Ronnie Reagan, I'm black and I'm pagan,
    A                        D
I'm gay and I'm left and I'm free.
      G                  D
I'm a non-fundamentalist environmentalist,
A                   D
Please don't bother me.
