paroles de chanson It's a Scandal! It's a Outrage! - Oklahoma! - 1998 Royal National Theatre Cast

Oh!
Trapped!
Tricked!
Hoodblinked!
Ambushed!

Friend
Whut's on yer mind?
Why do you walk
Around and around
With yer hands
Folded behind
And yer chin scrapin' the ground?

O fellars I don't believe it!
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!
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

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!

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!

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!

It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
When her fambly surround you and say
"You gotta make an honest womern outta Nell!"

To make you make her honest, she will lie like hell!

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?

Me?

It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
Jist a wink and a kiss and you're through!

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!

It's a scandal, it's an outrage!
Any farmer will tell you it's true

A rooster in a chickencoop is better off'n men
He ain't the special property of just one hen!

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!

All right, boys! Revolve!
