Status Quo - Barbra Streisand
Are you ready to hear your lesson for the day
Yes teacher yes teacher
Are you ready to learn what history has to say
Yes teacher yes teacher
Then take your books and follow me to 1776 ad
And as the history page is turned
We will see what we can learn
Yes teacher yes teacher yes teacher
In 1776 tom paine was writing books with a might and main
The tory said now man alive
Stop giving out with this here liberty jive
Stop giving out with this here liberty jive
Don't sing of people's rights that way
They might believe in what you say
So stop your song it's not polite
Pipe down before you start a fight
You don't say teacher is that right
Aha but tom paine looked ahead
And to those tories thomas said no no no no
When you got to go you got to go
You can't stand still on freedom's track
If you don't go forward you go back
You can't giddyup by saying whoa
And sitting on your status quo
Yes teacher
Yes teacher yes
Teacher
To Washington at valley forge
A wise guy whispered slow down george
Why start up trouble for the king
This freedom racket is a corny thing
This freedom racket is a corny thing
Your troops are ickys they can't move
You'll never get them in the groove
So if you're wise you'll just lay low
And play with the guys that have the dough
You don't say teacher is that so
Aha but george just looked ahead
And to that tory georgie said no
When you got to go you got to go
You can't stand still on freedom's track
If you don't go forward you go back
You can't giddyup by saying whoa
And sitting on your status quo
Yes teacher yes teacher
Yes teacher
Now paul revere saw a bellfry light
And that boy rode to town one night
Sang to the farmers near and far
Here come the british beating eight to the bar
You come the british beating eight to the bar
One slippery tory said now paul
You're manners aren't nice at all
Turn back don't be an old hep cat
The right people don't sing like that
Butpaul revere turn him down flat
Aha that's right he rode ahead
And to that tory paul just said no no no
When you got to go you got to go
You can't stand still on freedom's track
If you don't go forward you go back
You can't giddyup by saying whoa
And sitting on your status quo
Yes teacher yes teacher yes teacher
So students now you're hep don't stop
Keep stepping to that freedom hop
Although the tory's beef and blow
To keep you sitting on your status quo
To keep you sitting on your status quo
When they say let's stand still a bit
Give up some rights no harm in it
Remember those are just the tricks
That did not work in 76
Now ain't that right
The same old tricks
Though torys talk don't be misled
And say what all those others said
No no no no
When you got to go you got to go
You can't stand still on freedom's track
If you don't go forward you go back
You can't giddyup by saying whoa
And sitting on your status
Sitting on yes sittin' on your status
Quo
Oh
