Facts:

Reflects the distaste some had with phone companies switching to digit dialing in the '60s. (sav-man)

From Sherman's 1963 album MY SON, THE CELEBRITY. (sav-man)

To my knowledge, this is one of the few "non-parody" songs Allan Sherman recorded. (sav-man)

Song Lyrics:

It's the "The Let's All Call Up AT&T And Protest To The President March."
Can you see him smirking and smiling?
'Cause he's got us all digit dialing.
So let's all call up AT&T and protest to the president march.

So protest! Do your best!
Let us show him that we march in unity.
If he won't change the rules,
Let's take our business to another phone company.

Let's all call up AT&T and protest to the president march.
Let us wake him up in his slumber.
Get a pencil, I'll give you his number.

It's 3 1 8 5 2 7 3
0 8 7 4 2 9 dash!
5 1 1 4 9 0 6 7
4 0 8 5 2 hyphen!
1 1 4 6 2 0 5
7 9 hyphen dash 0 3.

And now that you're on the right road,
Don't forget his Area Code.
Which is 5 1 8 2 4 7 9
0 5 hyphen dash 9 4.

Where are the days of Auld Lang Syne?
Butterfield 8! Madison 9!

Let's keep those beautiful names alive.
Crestview 6! Gramercy 5!

Get ready to fight before it's too late!
Temple 2! Murray Hill 8!

Let's let them know that this means war!
Gettysburg 3! Concord 4! Hurray!

To all telephone subscribers,
We'll erect a triumphal arch,
For the let's all call up AT&T and protest to the president march.
