lirik lagu judy holliday - is it a crime?
[ella]
mother and dad handed down to me
a bit of their old philosophy
i’ve stuck to it like an obedient daughter
but it always lands me in hot water
i’d gladly follow out your suggestions
if you’d give me the answers to these questions
please tell me
is it a crime to start each day
with a laugh and a smile and a song?
and is it a crime to end each day
with a laugh and a smile and a song?
is it wrong?
is it a crime to call the world your valentine?
is it a crime to grab a lamp post
and then sing sweet adoline?
i ask you
is it a crime to save a wee baby bird
when it falls from its nest?
that little bird should havе a chance
to fly like all the rеst
if it’s a crime to help old ladies cross the street
then put me in jail! without bail!
bread and water from an old tin pail
if that’s
if that’s a crime!
is it a crime—
[ella, spoken]
inspector, i’m puzzled
we’re taught two things as we go through life:
one, be thy brother’s keeper
and two, mind your own business
[ella]
with a laugh and a smile and a song
[ella, spoken]
now, if i know something
and by telling it to someone in distress
i could change that person’s life and bring them
[ella]
the blue bird of happiness
[ella, spoken]
is it a crime to tell him?
or is it a crime not to?
is it that you mustn’t?
or you got to?
should you say
“hey, watch out for that banana peel, bud,”
or just remain silent, and then laugh
[ella]
as he crashes with a thud
[ella, spoken]
inspector
my job is to get messages to people on time
[ella]
if i have a job
and i see it through
and it’s just my duty
that i do do do
is that~
is that~
[ella, spoken]
inspector, let’s go back a few hundred years
if there had been answering services then
and it had been up to me
i could have changed the course of history
i could have prevented many a famous tragedy
[ella]
with a laugh and a smile and a song
[ella, spoken]
why, every night i lie in bed
and my cheeks
my cheeks grow soaking wet
when i think of what i could have done for
[ella]
romeo and juliet
[ella, spoken]
h~llo, verona phone
oh, yes, mr. romeo, juliet capulet called
the message is:
“to avoid getting married to other fellow
am playing dead
this friar lawrence gave me
a great big sleeping pill
but when i wake up, we’ll head for the border”
oh, don’t thank me
it’s all in a day’s work
[ella]
see what i could have done?
maybe i’m right!
maybe i’m wrong!
[ella, spoken]
but if i’d got that message through on time
i’m telling you
those two kids would be alive today!
[ella]
so if it’s a crime to help old ladies cross the street
then i’ll confess i’m just a mess
mother and dad, you were wrong
i guess!
[ella, spoken]
inspector, were they wrong?
thank you!
