It's A Scandal Its An Outrage Lyrics

Peddler]

Oh!

Trapped!...

Tricked! ...

Hoodwinked! ...

Ambushed! ...

[Men]

Friend,

Whut's on yer mind?

Why do you walk

Around and around,

With yer hands

Folded behind,

And yer chin scrapin' the ground?

[Peddler]

[Speaking]

O fellars I don't believe it!

[Singing]

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'm a happy man!

[Additional Verse]

I'm 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-

[Peddler]

I'm 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 gits a husband today!

[Peddler]

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 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]

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?

[Alternative Verse]

[Men]

It's a problem we must solve

We gotta start a revolution!

[Girls]

All right, boys! Revolve
