The Rebel
作詞:Allan Sherman
He stood four foot eight and wore a beatnik beard He had big thick glasses that looked real weird He weighed ninety-eight pounds But a whole nation feared the Rebel
He had a chick named Rhonda, a college prize Her long hair hung down over her eyes Kinda half Barbra Streisand and half Joan Baez She dug the Rebel
Well, they met one day at a pop art bash Between a painting of a can of succotash And a high camp sculpture of a pile of trash It was groovy
Rhonda dug the Rebel and the Rebel dug Rhonda So she grabbed her guitar and roared off on his Honda To a discotheque called the Anaconda With the Rebel
When the frugging was over at the discotheque The Rebel was a-tryin' to pay his check But his pockets they were empty so he yelled, 'Oh, heck!' 'Heck,' said the Rebel
Well, the Dean walked by just as that occurred He said, 'You can get expelled for what I just heard Don't you realize 'Heck' is a four-letter word You Rebel?'
But the Rebel said to his old adversary 'Just as long as that word's in the slang dictionary I swear by Peter, Paul and Mary I'll use it'
'Furthermore,' said the Rebel, 'I won't let the issue pass The whole student body's gonna sit down en masse Besides, that way we don't have to go to class We're gonna clew it'
Well, the sit-in started 'bout 7:15 The whole thing was covered by Time Magazine They even took Batman off the TV screen もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com To show the Rebel
Out came the captain of the state police Arresting lots of students for disturbing the peace Including his own son, his daughter and his niece And the Rebel
Someone called the governor to see what he could do The governor said, 'Sorry but I cannot talk to you 'Cause I'm a-sittin' in at the state house too Just like the Rebel'
Soon the secondary schools began to rebel Kindergarten kids were sitting during show and tell Then the older generation started sitting down as well Man, what a protest
Doctors sat, firemen sat, teachers wouldn't teach People sat at home and on the street and on the beach Just a-sittin' and a-waitin' for freedom of speech Nobody was talkin' to anybody
The nation was in trouble, there wasn't any doubt The President went on TV to try to pull us out And the President shouted, 'What the heck's it all about?' 'Heck,' said the President
Soon everyone was saying 'Heck', they said it everywhere And the Rebel said to Rhonda, 'This is terribly unfair Being hip is getting middle class, let's you and I be square' And they did, they squared it up
Rhonda got a haircut, the Rebel shaved his beard They were married and had children Which they subsequently reared They moved out to the suburbs and they really disappeared Wow, did they conform
Folks built a statue of the Rebel Just to prove the people's love but the public soon forgot it Just the pigeons up above seem to know the right location They've all found that statue of the Rebel
