It’s a Scandal! It’s a Outrage! Lyrics
[PEDDLER]
Oh!
Trapped!
Tricked!
Hoodblinked!
Ambushed!
[MEN]
Friend, what's on yer mind?
Why do you walk around and around?
With your hands folded behind
And your chin scrapin' the ground?
[PEDDLER]
Twenty minutes ago I am free like the breeze
Free like a bird in the woodland wild
Free like a gypsy, free like a child
I am unattached
Twenty minutes ago I can do what I please
Flick my cigar ashes on a rug
Dunk with a donut, drink from a jug
I am a happy man
I am minding my own business like I oughter
Ain't meanin' no harm to anyone
I'm talking to a certain farmer's daughter—
Then I'm looking into the muzzle of a gun
[MEN]
It's getting so you cain't have any fun
Every daughter has a father with a gun
It's a scandal, it's an outrage
How a gal gets a husband today
[PEDDLER]
If you make one mistake when the moon is bright
Then they tie you to a contract
So you'll make it ev'ry night
[MEN]
It's a scandal, it's an outrage
When her fambly surround you and say
"You gotta take and make an honest womern outta Nell!"
[PEDDLER]
To make you make her honest, she will lie like hell
[MEN]
It's a scandal, it's an outrage
On our manhood, it's a blot
Where is the leader who will save us?
And be the first man to be shot?
[PEDDLER]
Me?
[MEN]
Yes you
It's a scandal, it's an outrage
Jist a wink and a kiss and you're through
[PEDDLER]
You're in a mess, and in less than a year, by heck
There's a baby on your shoulder making bubbles on your neck
[MEN]
It's a scandal, it's an outrage
Any farmer will tell you it's true
[PEDDLER]
A rooster in a chickencoop is better off'n men
He ain't the special property of just one hen
[MEN]
It's a scandal, it's an outrage
When it's gonna be the day
We're gonna lead the liberation
And we will lead the way?
It's problem we must solve
We gotta start a revolution!
[GIRLS]
All right, boys! Revolve!
Oh!
Trapped!
Tricked!
Hoodblinked!
Ambushed!
