it’s a scandal! it’s an outrage! - 1979 broadway cast of oklahoma! lyrics
[peddler]
trapped
tricked
hoodblinked
ambushed
[men]
friend, what’s on yer mind?
why do you walk around and around?
with your hands folded behind
and your chin scr*pin’ the ground?
[peddler]
oh fellas i don’t believe it
twenty minutes ago i am free like the breeze
free like a bird in the woodland wild
free like a gypsy, free like a child
i’m a happy man
i am minding my own business like i oughter
ain’t meanin’ any harm to anyone
i’m talking to a certain farmer’s daughter—
and then i’m looking into the muzzle of a gun
[men]
it’s getting so you cain’t have any fun
every daughter has a father with a gun
it’s a scandal, it’s an outrage
how a gal gets a husband today
[peddler]
if you make one mistakе when the moon is bright
then thеy tie you to a contract
so you’ll make it ev’ry night
[peddler & men]
it’s a scandal, it’s an outrage
when her family surround you and say
[men]
“you gotta take and make an honest womern outta nell!”
[peddler]
to make you make her honest, she will lie like h*ll
[peddler & men]
it’s a scandal, it’s an outrage
on our manhood, it’s a blot
where is the leader who will save us?
and be the first man to be shot?
[peddler, spoken]
me?
[men, spoken]
yes you
[men]
it’s a scandal, it’s an outrage
jist a wink and a kiss and you’re through
[peddler]
you’re in a mess, and in less than a year, by heck
there’s a baby on your shoulder making bubbles on your neck
[men]
it’s a scandal, it’s an outrage
any farmer will tell you it’s true
[peddler]
a rooster in a chickencoop is better off’n men
he ain’t the special property of just one hen
[men]
it’s a scandal, it’s an outrage
but there’s going to be a day
we’re gonna win our liberation
and you
[peddler, spoken]
me?
[men]
will lead the way
