[Riff:] Dear kindly Sergeant Krupke You gotta understand It's just our bringing up-ke That gets us out of hand Our mothers all are junkies Our fathers all are drunks Golly Moses, naturally we're punks! [Riff & Jets:] Gee, Officer Krupke, we're very upset We never had the
love that every child oughta get We ain't no delinquents We're misunderstood Deep down inside us there is good! [Riff:] There is good! [All:] There is good, there is good There is untapped good! Like inside, the
worst of us is good! [Snowboy:] That's a
touching good story [Riff:] Lemme tell it to the
world! [Snowboy:] Just tell it to the
judge [Riff:] Dear kindly Judge, your Honor 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 Leaping lizards! That's why I'm so bad! [Diesel (as 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 [Diesel (as Judge):] Hear ye, hear ye! In the
opinion on 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 [Diesel:] So take him to a
headshrinker [Riff:] My father is a
bastard My ma's an S.O.B My grandpa's always plastered My grandma pushes tea My sister wears a
mustache My brother wears a
dress Goodness gracious, that's why I'm a
mess! [Action (as Psychiatrist):] Yes! Officer Krupke, you're really a
slob This boy don't need a
doctor, just a
good hofest job Society's played him a
terrible trick And sociologically he's sick! [Riff:] I
am sick! [All:] We are sick, we are sick We are sick, sick, sick Like we're sociologically sick! [Action:] In my opinion, this child don't need to have his head shrunk at all. Juvenile delinquency is purely a
social disease! [Riff:] Hey, I
got a
social disease! [Action:] So take him to a
social worker! [Riff:] Dear kindly social worker They say go earn some dough Like be a
soda jerker Which means like be a
schmo It's not I'm anti-social I'm only anti-work Gloryosky! That's why I'm a
jerk! [A-Rab (as Female Social Worker):] 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 him, he's no good! [Riff:] I'm no good! [All:] We're no good, we're no good! We're no earthly good Like the
best of us is no damn good! [Diesel (as Judge):] The
trouble is he's lazy [Action (as Psychiatrist):] The
trouble is he drinks [A-Rab (as Female Social Worker):] The
trouble is he's crazy [Diesel:] The
trouble is he stinks [Action:] The
trouble is he's growing [A-Rab:] The
trouble is he's grown [All:] Krupke, we got troubles of our own! Gee, Officer Krupke We're down on our knees 'Cause no one wants a
fellow with a
social disease Gee, Officer Krupke What are we to do? Gee, Officer Krupke Krup you!
