《Is it a Crime?》歌词

[00:00:00] Is it a Crime? - Judy Holiday

[00:00:02] Mother and Dad handed down to me

[00:00:05] A bit of their own philosophy

[00:00:09] I've stuck to it like an obedient daughter

[00:00:12] But it always lands me in hot water

[00:00:16] I'd gladly follow out your suggestions

[00:00:21] If you'd give me the answers to these questions

[00:00:26] Please tell me

[00:00:31] Is it a crime to start each day

[00:00:35] With a laugh and a smile and a song

[00:00:39] And is it a crime to end each day

[00:00:43] With a laugh and a smile and a song

[00:00:46] Is it wrong is it a crime

[00:00:49] To call the world your valentine

[00:00:56] Is it a crime to grab a lamp-post

[00:01:00] And then sing Sweet Adeline

[00:01:05] I ask you

[00:01:09] Is it a crime to save a wee

[00:01:13] Baby bird when it falls from its nest

[00:01:17] That little bird should have a chance

[00:01:21] To fly like all the rest

[00:01:26] So if it's a crime to help old ladies cross the street

[00:01:32] Then put me in jail

[00:01:33] Without bail

[00:01:35] Bread and water from an old tin pail

[00:01:40] If that's if that's a crime

[00:01:48] Is it a crime

[00:01:50] Inspector I'm puzzled

[00:01:52] We're taught two things as we go through life

[00:01:55] One Be thy brother's keeper

[00:01:58] And two Mind your own business

[00:02:01] (With a laugh and a smile and a song )

[00:02:03] Now if I know something and by telling it to someone

[00:02:06] In distress

[00:02:07] I could change that person's life and bring them the

[00:02:10] Bluebird of happiness

[00:02:14] Is it a crime to tell him or is it a crime not to

[00:02:18] Is it that you mustn't or you've got to

[00:02:21] Should you say: "Hey watch out for that banana peel

[00:02:23] Bud "

[00:02:24] Or just remain silent and then laugh as he crashes

[00:02:28] With a thud

[00:02:31] Inspector my job is to get messages to people on

[00:02:34] Time

[00:02:34] If I have a job and I see it through

[00:02:38] And it's just my duty that I do do do

[00:02:43] Is that is that --

[00:02:46] Inspector let's go back a few thousand years

[00:02:50] If there had been answering services then and if it

[00:02:53] Had been up to me

[00:02:53] I could have changed the course of history

[00:02:56] I could have prevented many a famous tragedy

[00:02:59] (With a laugh and a smile and a song )

[00:03:01] Why every night I lie awake and my cheeks grow

[00:03:05] Soaking wet

[00:03:07] When I think of what I could have done for Romeo and

[00:03:11] Juliet

[00:03:14] "Hello Verona-Phone Oh yes Mr Romeo Juliet

[00:03:18] Capulet called The message is: 'To avoid getting

[00:03:21] Married to other fellow am playing dead Friar

[00:03:24] Laurence gave me a great big sleeping pill but when I

[00:03:27] Wake up we'll head for the border ' Oh don't thank

[00:03:30] Me it's all in a day's work "

[00:03:32] See what I could have done

[00:03:34] Maybe I'm right

[00:03:35] Maybe I'm wrong

[00:03:36] But if I got that message through on time I'm telling

[00:03:39] You

[00:03:40] Those two kids would be alive today

[00:03:44] So if it's a crime to help old ladies cross the

[00:03:47] Street

[00:03:50] Then I confess

[00:03:51] I'm just a mess

[00:03:53] Mother and Dad you were wrong I guess

[00:03:58] Inspector were they wrong
