Sing Me A Song With Social Significance - Harold Rome[00:00:00]
Written by:Jun/Rose Marie[00:00:04]
I'm tired of moon songs of star and of June songs[00:00:07]
They simply make me nap[00:00:11]
And ditties romantic drive me nearly frantic[00:00:14]
I think they're all full of pap[00:00:18]
History's making nations are quaking[00:00:22]
Why sing of stars above[00:00:25]
For while we are waiting father time's creating[00:00:28]
New things to be singing of[00:00:33]
Sing me a song with social significance[00:00:40]
All other tunes are taboo[00:00:44]
I want a ditty with heat in it[00:00:47]
Appealing with feeling and meat in it[00:00:51]
Sing me a song with social significance[00:00:54]
Or you can sing 'til you're blue[00:00:58]
Let meaning shine from ev'ry line[00:01:02]
Or I won't love you[00:01:05]
Sing me of wars and sing me of breadlines[00:01:09]
Tell me of front page news[00:01:13]
Sing me of strikes and last minute headlines[00:01:17]
Dress your observation in syncopation[00:01:21]
Sing me a song with social significance[00:01:24]
There's nothing else that will do[00:01:28]
It must get hot with what is what[00:01:31]
Or I won't love you[00:01:35]
I want a song that's satirical[00:01:46]
And putting the mere into miracle[00:01:50]
It must be packed with social fact[00:02:01]
Or I won't love you[00:02:05]
Sing me of kings and conf'rences martial[00:02:09]
Tell me of mills and mines[00:02:12]
Sing me of courts that aren't impartial[00:02:16]
What's to be done with 'em tell me in rhythm[00:02:20]
Sing me a song with social significance[00:02:24]
There's nothing else that will do[00:02:27]
It must be tense with common sense[00:02:30]
Or I won't love you[00:02:34]
