Dave: Thank ya. Thank ya very much.
Kevin: Thank you very much.
Dave: This next song is about Senator Joe McCarthy.
Kevin: Goes a little something like this.
[Dave begins playing guitar.]
Both: [singing] Root 'em out Joe / Root 'em out Joe-ho / Send them all back to icy Moscow-ho / Root 'em out Joe / Root 'em out Joe-ho / Let 'em all dance to the commie-a-go-go. . .
It's an insidious spread like lichens and mosses / Send them all back to their Soviet bosses / Tell them to go / Tell 'em to get lost / Get all their names form Nehemiah Persoff. . .
Kevin: Ooo. . .
Dave: What's that I see--
Kevin: Ahh. . .
Dave: --On the horizon?
Kevin: Ooo. . .
Dave: I see an eagle, and--
Kevin: Ahh. . .
Dave: I see some bison. These things are America to me. . .
Kevin: [trying to harmonize, but slightly out of tune] America to me.
Dave: Whoo! Root 'em out-- [repeated 15 more times as Kevin sings the following.]
Kevin: [over Dave:] Better dead than red. Better dead than re-ed. Better dead then re-e-ed. . .
Dave: --Joe. . .
[song ends.]
Dave: Thank you.
Kevin: Thank ya.
[Cut to audience--blank/shocked faces. Cut back to Kevin and Dave. Kevin is waving two U.S. flags. Both look suprised and a bit uncomfortable.]
Dave: [voice over] Regrets?
[Cut to present, in color. Caption: Leslie De Gaulle Trio 1991]
Dave: Oh sure. Tons.
Kevin: Our day's pretty much filled with regrets.
Dave: Yep. First thing we do in the morning is regret somethin'.
[Both laugh.]
Kevin: Yep.
