Sing Me A Song With Social Significance
Barbra Streisand Song Lyrics
I'm tired of moon-songs of star and of June songs, They simply make me nap And ditties romantic drive me nearly frantic I think they're all full of pap History's making, nations are quaking Why sing of stars above For while we are waiting father time's creating New things to be singing of Sing me a song with social significance All other tunes are taboo I want a ditty with heat in it, Appealing with feeling and meat in it! Sing me a song with social significance Or you can sing 'til you're blue Let meaning shine from ev'ry line Or I won't love you Sing me of wars and sing me of breadlines Tell me of front page news Sing me of strikes and last minute headlines Dress your observation in syncopation! Sing me a song with social significance There's nothing else that will do It must get hot with what is what Or I won't love you. I want a song that's satirical And putting the mere into miracle It must be packed with social fact or I won't love you Sing me of kings and conf'rences martial Tell me of mills and mines Sing me of courts that aren't impartial What's to be done with 'em tell me in rhythm Sing me a song with social significance there's nothing else that will do It must be tense with common sense or I won't love you. |
