The Rebel - Allan Sherman[00:00:00]
He stood four foot eight and wore a beatnik beard[00:00:05]
He had big thick glasses that looked real weird[00:00:08]
He weighed ninety eight pounds[00:00:11]
But a whole nation feared the rebel[00:00:13]
He had a chick named rhonda a college prize[00:00:17]
Her long hair hung down over her eyes[00:00:20]
Kinda half barbra streisand and half joan baez[00:00:23]
She dug the rebel[00:00:26]
Well they met one day at a pop art bash[00:00:29]
Between a painting of a can of succotash[00:00:31]
And a high camp sculpture of a pile of trash[00:00:34]
It was groovy[00:00:37]
Rhonda dug the rebel and the rebel dug rhonda[00:00:41]
So she grabbed her guitar and roared off on his honda[00:00:43]
To a discotheque called the anaconda[00:00:46]
With the rebel[00:00:49]
When the frugging was over at the discotheque[00:00:52]
The rebel was a tryin' to pay his check[00:00:55]
But his pockets they were empty so he yelled oh heck[00:00:58]
Heck said the rebel[00:01:01]
Well the dean walked by just as that occurred[00:01:04]
He said you can get expelled for what i just heard[00:01:06]
Don't you realize heck is a four letter word[00:01:09]
You rebel[00:01:12]
But the rebel said to his old adversary[00:01:15]
Just as long as that word's in the slang dictionary[00:01:18]
I swear by peter paul and mary[00:01:21]
I'll use it[00:01:24]
Furthermore said the rebel I won't let the issue pass[00:01:27]
The whole student body's gonna sit down en masse[00:01:30]
Besides that way we don't have to go to class[00:01:33]
We're gonna clew it[00:01:35]
Well the sit in started 'bout 7:15[00:01:38]
The whole thing was covered by time magazine[00:01:42]
They even took batman off the tv screen[00:01:44]
To show the rebel[00:01:47]
Out came the captain of the state police[00:01:51]
Arresting lots of students for disturbing the peace[00:01:53]
Including his own son his daughter and his niece[00:01:56]
And the rebel[00:01:59]
Someone called the governor to see what he could do[00:02:02]
The governor said sorry but i cannot talk to you[00:02:05]
Cause i'm a sittin' in at the state house too[00:02:08]
Just like the rebel[00:02:10]
Soon the secondary schools began to rebel[00:02:13]
Kindergarten kids were sitting during show and tell[00:02:17]
Then the older generation started sitting down as well[00:02:19]
Man what a protest[00:02:22]
Doctors sat firemen sat teachers wouldn't teach[00:02:26]
People sat at home and on the street and on the beach[00:02:28]
Just a sittin' and a waitin' for freedom of speech[00:02:31]
Nobody was talkin' to anybody[00:02:34]
The nation was in trouble there wasn't any doubt[00:02:37]
The president went on tv to try to pull us out[00:02:40]
And the president shouted what the heck's it all about[00:02:43]
Heck said the president[00:02:46]
Soon everyone was saying heck' they said it everywhere[00:02:49]
And the rebel said to rhonda this is terribly unfair[00:02:52]
Being hip is getting middle class let's you and i be square[00:02:55]
And they did they squared it up[00:02:58]
Rhonda got a haircut the rebel shaved his beard[00:03:01]
They were married and had children[00:03:03]
Which they subsequently reared[00:03:05]
They moved out to the suburbs and they really disappeared[00:03:06]
Wow did they conform[00:03:09]
Folks built a statue of the rebel[00:03:13]
Just to prove the people's love but the public soon forgot it[00:03:15]
Just the pigeons up above seem to know the right location[00:03:20]
They've all found that statue of the rebel[00:03:25]
