Tom Lehrer - The Folk Song Army слова песни




One type of song that has come into increasing prominence in recent months is the folk-song of protest. you have to admire people who sing these songs. it takes a certain amount of courage to geIn a coffee-house or a college auditorium and come out in favor of the things that everybody else in the audience is against like peace and justice and brotherhood and so on. the nicest thing abProtest song is that it makes you feel so good. I have a song here which I realise should be accompanied on a folk instrument in which category the piano does not alas qualify so imagine if youThat I am playing an 88 string guitar.We are the folk song army.Everyone of us cares.We all hate poverty, war, and injustice,Unlike the rest of you squares.There are innocuous folk songs.Yeah, but we regard em with scorn.The folks who sing em have no social conscience.Why they dont even care if jimmy crack corn.If you feel dissatisfaction,Strum your frustrations away.Some people may prefer action,But give me a folk song any old day.The tune dont have to be clever,And it dont matter if you put a coupla extra syllables into a line.It sounds more ethnic if it aint good english,And it dont even gotta rhyme--excuse me--rhyne.Remember the war against franco? Thats the kind where each of us belongs.Though he may have won all the battles,We had all the good songs.So join in the folk song army,Guitars are the weapons we bringTo the fight against poverty, war, and injustice.Ready! aim! sing!
