Current song lyrics
Oh I am just a student, sir<br />And only want to learn<br />But it's hard to read through the risin' smoke<br />Of the books that you like to burn<br />So I'd like to make a promise<br />And I'd like to make a vow<br />That when I've got something to say, sir<br />I'm gonna say it now<br />Oh you've given me a number<br />And you've taken off my name<br />To get around this campus<br />Why, you almost need a plane<br />And you're supporting Chang Kai-Shek<br />While I'm supporting Mao<br />So when I've got something to say, sir<br />I'm gonna say it now<br />I wish that you'd make up your mind<br />I wish that you'd decide<br />That I should live as freely<br />As those who live outside<br />Cause we also are entitled<br />To the rights to be endowed<br />And when I've got something to say, sir<br />I'm gonna say it now<br />Ooh, you'd like to be my father<br />You'd like to be my Dad<br />And give me kisses when I'm good<br />And spank me when I'm bad<br />But since I've left my parents<br />I've forgotten how to bow<br />So when I've got something to say, sir<br />I'm gonna say it now<br />And things they might be different<br />If I was here alone<br />But I've got a friend or two<br />Who no longer live at home<br />And we'll respect our elders<br />Just as long as they allow<br />That when I've got something to say, sir<br />I'm gonna say it now<br />I've read of other countries<br />Where the students take a stand<br />Maybe even help to overthrow<br />The leaders of the land<br />Now I wouldn't go so far to say<br />We're also learnin' how<br />But when I've got something to say, sir<br />I'm gonna say it now<br />So keep right on a-talkin'<br />And tell us what to do<br />If nobody listens<br />My apologies to you<br />And I know that you were younger once<br />'cause you sure are older now<br />And when I've got something to say, sir<br />I'm gonna say it now<br />So I am just a student sir<br />And only want to learn<br />But it's hard to read through the risin' smoke<br />From the books that you like to burn<br />So I'd like to make a promise<br />And I'd like to make a vow<br />That when I've got something to say, sir<br />I'm gonna say it now
