[00:03.00] |
Oh I am just a student,sir |
[00:04.80] |
And only want to learn |
[00:07.20] |
But it's hard to read through the risein' smoke |
[00:09.90] |
Of the books that you like to burn |
[00:12.20] |
So I'd like to make promise |
[00:14.80] |
And I'd like to make a vow |
[00:16.10] |
That when I've got something to say,sir |
[00:18.90] |
I'm gonna say it now |
[00:22.20] |
Oh you've given me a number |
[00:24.70] |
And you've taken off my name |
[00:27.40] |
To get around this campus |
[00:28.90] |
Why, you almost need a plane |
[00:31.30] |
And you're supporting Chang Kai-Shek |
[00:34.00] |
While I'm supporting Mao |
[00:35.90] |
So when I've got something to say, sir |
[00:38.40] |
I'm gonna say it now |
[00:42.70] |
I wish that you'd make up your mind |
[00:44.70] |
I wish that you'd decide |
[00:46.50] |
That I should live as freely |
[00:49.40] |
As those who live outside |
[00:51.85] |
Cause we also are entitled |
[00:54.00] |
To the rights to be endowed |
[00:56.10] |
And when I've got something to say,sir |
[00:58.20] |
I'm gonna say it now |
[01:03.00] |
Ooh,you'd like to be my father |
[01:04.95] |
You'd like to be my dad |
[01:07.05] |
And give me kisses when I'm good |
[01:09.20] |
And spank me when I'm bad |
[01:12.45] |
But since I've left my parents |
[01:15.00] |
I've forgotten how to bow |
[01:17.15] |
So when I've got something to say,sir |
[01:19.45] |
I'm gonna say it now |
[01:25.75] |
And things they might be different |
[01:27.85] |
If I was here alone |
[01:30.45] |
But I've got a friend or two |
[01:33.10] |
Who no longer live at home |
[01:35.00] |
And we'll respect our elders |
[01:37.50] |
Just as long as they allow |
[01:39.55] |
That when I've got something to say,sir |
[01:41.75] |
I'm gonna say it now |
[01:46.45] |
I've read of other countries |
[01:48.25] |
Where the students take a stand |
[01:50.76] |
Maybe even help to overthrow |
[01:53.50] |
The leaders of the land |
[01:56.40] |
Now I wouldn't go so far to say |
[01:59.00] |
We're also learning how |
[02:00.50] |
But when I've got something to say,sir |
[02:03.00] |
I'm gonna say it now |
[02:06.35] |
So keep right on a-talkin' |
[02:08.15] |
And tall us what to do |
[02:11.00] |
If nobody listens |
[02:12.68] |
My apologies to you |
[02:16.01] |
And I know that you were younger once |
[02:18.75] |
Cause you sure are older now |
[02:21.00] |
And when I've got something to say,sir |
[02:22.85] |
I'm gonna say it now |
[02:26.00] |
So I am just a student, sir |
[02:28.45] |
And only want to learn,sir |
[02:31.39] |
But it's hard to read through the risein' smoke |
[02:34.45] |
Of the books that you like to burn |
[02:36.80] |
So I'd like to make a promise |
[02:39.55] |
And I'd like to make a vow |
[02:42.00] |
That when I've got something to say,sir |
[02:43.50] |
I'm gonna say it now |
