[00:20.90] Dear kindly Sergeant Krupke,
[00:22.95] You gotta understand,
[00:24.68] It's just our bringin' up-ke
[00:26.46] That gets us out of hand.
[00:28.29] Our mothers all are junkies,
[00:30.15] Our fathers all are drunks.
[00:32.04] Golly Moses, natcherly we're punks!
[00:35.38]
[00:35.71] Gee, Officer Krupke, we're very upset;
[00:38.85] We never had the love that ev'ry child oughta get.
[00:42.42] We ain't no delinquents,
[00:44.38] We're misunderstood.
[00:46.37] Deep down inside us there is good!
[00:48.84] There is good!
[00:49.75] There is good, there is good,
[00:51.73] There is untapped good!
[00:53.63] Like inside, the worst of us is good!
[00:56.30]
[01:03.13] That's a touchin' good story.
[01:06.27] Lemme tell it to the world!
[01:07.72] Just tell it to the judge.
[01:10.01]
[01:14.02] Dear kindly Judge, your Honor,
[01:18.48] My parents treat me rough.
[01:20.35] With all their marijuana,
[01:22.13] They won't give me a puff.
[01:23.86] They didn't wanna have me,
[01:25.62] But somehow I was had.
[01:27.63] Leapin' lizards! That's why I'm so bad!
[01:31.08]
[01:31.37] Right!
[01:31.57] Officer Krupke, you're really a square;
[01:34.72] This boy don't need a judge, he needs an analyst's care!
[01:38.25] It's just his neurosis that oughta be curbed.
[01:42.23] He's psychologic'ly disturbed!
[01:44.63]
[01:44.81] I'm disturbed!
[01:45.70] We're disturbed, we're disturbed,
[01:47.41] We're the most disturbed,
[01:49.75] Like we're psychologic'ly disturbed.
[01:54.48]
[01:58.87] In the opinion on this court, this child is depraved on account he ain't had a normal home.
[02:05.05] Hey, I'm depraved on account I'm deprived.
[02:07.87] So take him to a headshrinker.
[02:09.52]
[02:17.06] My father is a bastard,
[02:18.43] My ma's an S.O.B.
[02:20.24] My grandpa's always plastered,
[02:22.04] My grandma pushes tea.
[02:24.05] My sister wears a mustache,
[02:25.77] My brother wears a dress.
[02:27.74] Goodness gracious, that's why I'm a mess!
[02:31.23]
[02:31.56] Yes! Officer Krupke, you're really a slob.
[02:34.90] This boy don't need a doctor, just a good honest job.
[02:38.76] Society's played him a terrible trick,
[02:42.77] And sociologic'ly he's sick!
[02:44.98]
[02:45.17] I am sick!
[02:46.02] We are sick, we are sick,
[02:47.99] We are sick, sick, sick,
[02:49.64] Like we're sociologically sick!
[02:53.60]
[02:58.97] In my opinion, this child does not need to have his head shrunk at all. Juvenile delinquency is purely a social disease!
[03:06.75] Hey, I got a social disease!
[03:09.44] So take him to a social worker!
[03:10.34]
[03:17.89] Dear kindly social worker,
[03:20.06] They say go earn a buck.
[03:21.78] Like be a soda jerker,
[03:27.70] Which means like be a schumck.
[03:25.57] It's not I'm anti-social,
[03:29.67] I'm only anti-work.
[03:30.02] Gloryosky! That's why I'm a jerk!
[03:32.87]
[03:33.18] Eek! Officer Krupke, you've done it again.
[03:36.58] This boy don't need a job, he needs a year in the pen.
[03:40.29] It ain't just a question of misunderstood;
[03:44.26] Deep down inside him, he's no good!
[03:46.65]
[03:46.94] I'm no good!
[03:47.74] We're no good, we're no good!
[03:49.77] We're no earthly good,
[03:51.61] Like the best of us is no damn good!
[03:54.57]
[03:57.92] The trouble is he's crazy.
[03:59.12] The trouble is he drinks.
[04:00.94] The trouble is he's lazy.
[04:02.83] The trouble is he stinks.
[04:04.49] The trouble is he's growing.
[04:06.47] The trouble is he's grown.
[04:08.40]
[04:08.78] Krupke, we got troubles of our own!
[04:12.18]
[04:12.61] Gee, Officer Krupke,
[04:14.85] We're down on our knees,
[04:16.88] 'Cause no one wants a fellow with a social disease.
[04:20.85] Gee, Officer Krupke,
[04:23.01] What are we to do?
[04:26.02] Gee, Officer Krupke,
[04:28.79] Krup you!
