These are the laws of my administration ...
No one's allowed to smoke
Or tell a dirty joke
And whistling is forbidden.
If chewing gun is chewed
The chewer is pursued
And in the hoosegow hidden.
If any form of pleasure is exhibited,
Report to me and it will be prohibited.
I'll put my foot down.
So shall it be.
This is the land of the free.
