brobdingnagian bards - i will not sing along lyrics

i will not sing along
keep your stupid song
we’re the audience
it’s you we came to see
you’re not supposed to train us
you’re supposed to entertain us
so get to work and leave me be

when you go out to a play
do the actors turn and say
“alright, everyone together say my line”
but folk singers get away
with this practice every day
because they think you people’ve got no spines

well it’s time to stand and fight
and defend your basic right
to be quiet, any time you choose
when the k+mbayahs begin
it’s not crime and it’s no sin
to stand up and holler, “i refuse!”

does a trucker pass the buck
and say, “let’s all drive me truck”
does a surgeon holler, “everybody cut!”
but folk singers all expect
for you to drop your self+respect
and howl like some demented nut
it’s a big folk singer thing
to say, “everybody sing!”
it’s supposed to show our camaraderie
well, the odds are pretty strong
that i’m paid to do this song
so why should you do my job for free (i just ask you)
