Status Quo - Barbra Streisand[00:00:00]
Are you ready to hear your lesson for the day[00:00:11]
Yes teacher yes teacher[00:00:14]
Are you ready to learn what history has to say[00:00:16]
Yes teacher yes teacher[00:00:20]
Then take your books and follow me to 1776 ad[00:00:22]
And as the history page is turned[00:00:27]
We will see what we can learn[00:00:30]
Yes teacher yes teacher yes teacher[00:00:34]
In 1776 tom paine was writing books with a might and main[00:00:39]
The tory said now man alive[00:00:44]
Stop giving out with this here liberty jive[00:00:47]
Stop giving out with this here liberty jive[00:00:50]
Don't sing of people's rights that way[00:00:52]
They might believe in what you say[00:00:55]
So stop your song it's not polite[00:00:57]
Pipe down before you start a fight[00:01:00]
You don't say teacher is that right[00:01:03]
Aha but tom paine looked ahead[00:01:06]
And to those tories thomas said no no no no[00:01:08]
When you got to go you got to go[00:01:14]
You can't stand still on freedom's track[00:01:17]
If you don't go forward you go back[00:01:19]
You can't giddyup by saying whoa[00:01:22]
And sitting on your status quo[00:01:25]
Yes teacher[00:01:28]
Yes teacher yes[00:01:29]
Teacher[00:01:31]
To Washington at valley forge[00:01:33]
A wise guy whispered slow down george[00:01:36]
Why start up trouble for the king[00:01:39]
This freedom racket is a corny thing[00:01:41]
This freedom racket is a corny thing[00:01:44]
Your troops are ickys they can't move[00:01:47]
You'll never get them in the groove[00:01:50]
So if you're wise you'll just lay low[00:01:52]
And play with the guys that have the dough[00:01:55]
You don't say teacher is that so[00:01:58]
Aha but george just looked ahead[00:02:00]
And to that tory georgie said no[00:02:03]
When you got to go you got to go[00:02:09]
You can't stand still on freedom's track[00:02:12]
If you don't go forward you go back[00:02:14]
You can't giddyup by saying whoa[00:02:17]
And sitting on your status quo[00:02:20]
Yes teacher yes teacher[00:02:23]
Yes teacher[00:02:26]
Now paul revere saw a bellfry light[00:02:28]
And that boy rode to town one night[00:02:31]
Sang to the farmers near and far[00:02:33]
Here come the british beating eight to the bar[00:02:36]
You come the british beating eight to the bar[00:02:39]
One slippery tory said now paul[00:02:42]
You're manners aren't nice at all[00:02:44]
Turn back don't be an old hep cat[00:02:47]
The right people don't sing like that[00:02:50]
Butpaul revere turn him down flat[00:02:53]
Aha that's right he rode ahead[00:02:55]
And to that tory paul just said no no no[00:02:58]
When you got to go you got to go[00:03:03]
You can't stand still on freedom's track[00:03:06]
If you don't go forward you go back[00:03:09]
You can't giddyup by saying whoa[00:03:12]
And sitting on your status quo[00:03:14]
Yes teacher yes teacher yes teacher[00:03:18]
So students now you're hep don't stop[00:03:23]
Keep stepping to that freedom hop[00:03:26]
Although the tory's beef and blow[00:03:28]
To keep you sitting on your status quo[00:03:31]
To keep you sitting on your status quo[00:03:34]
When they say let's stand still a bit[00:03:36]
Give up some rights no harm in it[00:03:39]
Remember those are just the tricks[00:03:42]
That did not work in 76[00:03:45]
Now ain't that right[00:03:48]
The same old tricks[00:03:49]
Though torys talk don't be misled[00:03:50]
And say what all those others said[00:03:53]
No no no no[00:03:56]
When you got to go you got to go[00:03:58]
You can't stand still on freedom's track[00:04:01]
If you don't go forward you go back[00:04:04]
You can't giddyup by saying whoa[00:04:07]
And sitting on your status[00:04:09]
Sitting on yes sittin' on your status[00:04:12]
Quo[00:04:17]
