Gee Officer Krumke lyrics

TIGER, IMITATING KRUPKE Hey you! RIFF Who me, Officer Krupke? TIGER, IMITATING
KRUPKE Yeah you, gimme one good reason for not draggin' ya down the station
house, ya punk! RIFF Dear kindly Sergeant Krupke You gotta understand It's just
our bringin' upke That gets us out of hand Our mothers all are junkies Our
fathers all are drunks Golly Moses, natcherly we're punks JETS Gee, Officer
Krupke We're very upset We never had the love That every child oughta get We
ain't no deliquents We're misunderstood Deep down inside us there is good RIFF
There is good! JETS There is good, there is good There is untapped good Like
inside, the worst of us is good TIGER, IMITATING KRUPKE That's a touching good
story RIFF Lemme tell it to the world! TIGER, IMITATING KRUPKE Just tell it to
the judge RIFF Dear kindly Judge, your Honour My parents treat me rough With
all their marijuana They won't give me a puff They didn't wanna have me But
somehow I was had Leapin' lizards, that's why I'm so bad SNOWBOY IMITATING
JUDGE Right! Officer Krupke You're really a square This boy don't need a judge
He needs an analyst's care It's just his neurosis That oughta be curbed He's
psychologically disturbed RIFF I'm disturbed JETS We're disturbed, we're
disturbed We're the most disturbed Like we're psychologically disturbed SNOWBOY
IMITATING JUDGE Hear ye, hear ye. In the opinion of this court, this child is
depraved on account he ain't had a normal home. RIFF Hey, I'm depraved on
account I'm deprived! SNOWBOY IMITATING JUDGE So take him to a headshrinker.
You! ACTION Who me? RIFF My daddy beats my mommy My mommy clubbers me My
grand'pa is a commie My grand'ma pushes tea My sisters wears a moustache My
brother wears a dress Goodness gracious, that's why I'm a mess ACTION IMITATING
HEADSHRINKER Yes, Officer Krupke He shouldn't be here This boy don't need a
couch He needs a usefully career Society's played him a terrible trick And
sociologically he's sick RIFF I am sick! JETS We are sick, we are sick We are
sick sick sick Like we're sociologically sick ACTION IMITATING HEADSHRINKER In
my opinion, this child does not need to have his head shrunk at all. Juvenile
delinquency is purely a social disease. RIFF Hey, I got a social disease!
ACTION IMITATING HEADSHRINKER So take him to a social worker RIFF Dear kindly
social worker They tell me get a job Like be a soda jerker Which means I'd be a
slob It's not I'm antisocial I'm only anti-work Glory Osky, that's why I'm a
jerk A-RAB Eek, Officer Krupke You've done it again This boy don't need a job
He needs a year in the pen It ain't just a question of misunderstood Deep down
inside he's no good RIFF I'm no good JETS We're no good, we're no good We're no
earthly good Like the best of us is no damn good The trouble is he's lazy The
trouble is he drinks The trouble is he's crazy The trouble is he stinks The
trouble is he's growing The trouble is he's grown Krupke, we've got troubles of
our own Officer Krupke We're down on our knees RIFF 'Cause no one wants a fella
With a social disease JETS Dear Officer Krupke What are we to do? Gee, Officer
Krupke Krup you!
