I could also see him getting weepy listening to “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down”.
My favorite part in the FBI report on Louie Louie is this line:
Mr. GRACE and [REDACTED] advised that they were not able to discern any of the
obscene language and found the record played on both speeds as being quite
unintelligible.
Well, I mixed him up with the character in the Spiderman comics, which may say more about me than I like…
I signed an antiwar petition back in the Vietnam War era, so there could be a microscopic F.B.I. file on me.
It’s not worth the cost of filing a lawsuit to see. But I still get slightly apprehensive when I see strange vehicles parked or idling near my house. 
You can tell if it’s the Feds or not, if “FBI Surveillance Van” shows up on your list of nearby wifi networks. 
Flowers By Isabel. It’s just a delivery truck.
I applied and was rejected twice to become an FBI agent. I also have had a clearance. I wonder what my file looks like.
It seems obvious to me. Everyone knew that Rock 'N Roll was both unholy, subversive, and Communist, right up there with Dr. King. And don’t forget that most closeted Communist of all, Senator Joseph McCarthy.
Senator McCarthy had so much crap in his closet, I’m sure he couldn’t close the door.
He always looked so rumpled, I just know his clothes were wadded up on the floor, because his closet was so full.

I was similarly confused.
The old joke was that the attempt to find out if the FBI had a file on you was enough reason for them to start a file on you.
That wasn’t a joke. During the Cold War, Soviet agents would file FOIA requests to see what the government knew about them. So the FBI would generate a new file on people who filed requests.
I studied Russian in college, and someone said that automatically meant an FBI file was opened on me.
I read something today that one of the FBI’s concerns was Last Train to Clarksville because of its reference to going off to (the Vietnam?) war and perhaps never coming home.
I always thought there was something deeply subversive and Commie about Danny Boy
Sumer Is Acumen In is all about hormones, and contains the lyrics, “the billy goat is farting”.
As did I, and while I’m pretty sure there is no FBI file on me (I’m in Canada), I know that there is an RCMP file on me. Let’s face it, when the Mounties come knocking on my professors’ and neighbours’ doors asking about you, they’re going to build a file on you.
Forty years later, I would hope that it has been destroyed. But who knows?
It would be interesting to read the FBI file on Elvis.
He served in the Military and did his job well. He didn’t spend his hitch entertaining.
He received honorary police badges for his support of LE.
There was all the drug use and people around him may have been sketchy. Elvis liked teen girls.
Would the FBI file be positive or negative?
Nitpick 1: “Icumen”, not “Acumen”
Nitpick 2: It’s a buck/stag that’s farting, not a billy goat, at least in most translations*.
Things like this are important.
- the original is “bucke”, but Wikipedia actually does render this as “billy goat”. They’re the only one I know who does. There’s also a debate about whether “verteth” means “farts” or maybe “cavorts”, but most people opt for “farts”
