When The Big, Bad Books Go 'Boo!'

 

When The Big, Bad Books Go 'Boo!'

(альбом: All New - 2022)


I have a book, a dangerous book
That no one ought to read
It's full of sex and murder and death
Omnipotence and greed
Some people want to ban my book
And rip it from the shelves
Though they've been known to read this book
Out loud among themselves

When the big, bad books go 'Boo!'
God knows what they might do
You'll know your kids
Have hit the skids
When they quote Huck Finn to you
When Toni Morrison writes
Good people lie awake for nights
Oh, the worst will happen to you
When the big, bad books go 'Boo!'

They've read it to their children
They've read it to their kin
They've never thought that reading it
Could ever be thought a sin
Of course, the Bible tells us
We should love our neighbors well
While in real life we often tell them
They can go to Hell

When the big, bad books go 'Boo!'
God knows what they might do
You'll know your kids
Have hit the skids
When they quote Huck Finn to you
When Toni Morrison writes
Good people lie awake for nights
Oh, the worst will happen to you
When the big, bad books go 'Boo!'

The more fine books you ban
The more your kids would scan
The messengers you shoot
Will be forbidden fruit
And the children will find out
What the books you ban are about
And wonder, why the rage
Over words upon a page?

When the big, bad books go 'Boo!'
God knows what they might do
You'll know your kids
Have hit the skids
When they quote Huck Finn to you
When Toni Morrison writes
Good people lie awake for nights
Oh, the worst will happen to you
When the big, bad books go 'Boo!'
Oh, the worst will happen to you
When the big, bad books go 'Boo!'
