(instrumental intro)

This A.G. goes bananas when he sees "obscene."
He'll spy on neighborhoods for those he deems "unclean."
The "crooks" that he's nabbin' weren't understood.
Dissenters just annoy Mr. Johnny No Good.
John Ashcroft thinks our Constitution burns so well,
But he serves Bush the Czar, and he's bringing us hell.

Say no!
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
Johnny's no good!

He used to carry Crisco oil by the jumbo pack.
He'd anoint himself; what a zealous quack.
He then appeared to Congress he would make the grade
As A.G., but he lied, and then he had it made.
If people ask him why his staff is forced to pray,
He'll spy, then send goons out to take them away.

Say no!
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
Johnny's no good!

(instrumental break)

John lost his re-election to Mel Carnahan.
Then Bush usurped as leader, and assumed command.
Bush's people said, "Ashcroft, don't be down.
They'll fear you when you use powers for our crown.
We're gettin' our way; your name will hit the heights."
We say, "Johnny's no good; far right."

Say no!
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
No, Johnny's no, no, no...
Johnny's no good!
