(RADIO ANNOUNCER) That was President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, ladies and gentlemen, speaking to a crowd of supporters here in Miami's beautiful Bayfront Park. A group of notables are pressing in around the President-elect's car. There's Mayor Anton Cermak of Chicago, and- There's been a shot! I can't see-wait! Mr. Roosevelt is waving! He's all right! But Mayor Cermak has been hit! The police have somebody in custody. An immigrant. Giuseppe Zangara. We take you now to a group of eyewitnesses who will tell us what they saw! (BYSTANDER #1) We're crowded up close, And I see this guy, He's squeezing by, I catch his eye, I say to him, "Where do you Think you are trying to go, boy? Whoa, boy!" I say, "Listen, you runt, You're not pulling that stunt, No gentleman pushes his way to the front." I say, "Move to the back!", which he does with a grunt- Which is how I saved Roosevelt! (BYSTANDER #2) Then- Well, I'm in my seat, I get up to clap, I feel this tap, I turn-this sap, He says he can't see, I say, "Find a lap And go sit on it!" Which is how I saved- (BYSTANDER #3) Then- He started to swear And he climbed on a chair, He was aiming a gun-I was standing right there- So I pushed it as hard as I could in the air, Which is how I saved Roosevelt! (ALL THREE) Lucky I was there- (BYSTANDER #1) That's why he was standing back so far-! (BYSTANDER #3) That's why when he aimed, He missed the car-! (ALL THREE) Just lucky I was there, Or we'd have been left Bereft of F.D.R.! (ZANGARA) You think that I scare? No scare. You think that I care? No care. I look at the world- No good. No fair. Nowhere. When I am boy, No school. I work in a ditch, No chance. The smart and the rich Ride by, Don't give no glance. Ever since then, because of them, I have the sickness in the stomach, Which is the way I make my idea To go out and kill Roosevelt. First I was figure I kill Hoover, I get even for the Stomach. Only Hoover up in Washington. Is wintertime in Washington, Too cold for the stomach in Washington- I go down to Miami Kill Roosevelt. No laugh! No funny! Men with the money, they control everything. Roosevelt, Hoover- No make no difference. You think I care who I kill? I no care who I kill, Long as it's King!
