[00:00.00]Is It a Crime? (Judy Holliday) - Judy Holliday
[00:02.16]Mother and Dad handed down to me
[00:05.47]A bit of their own philosophy
[00:09.07]I've stuck to it like an obedient daughter
[00:12.82]But it always lands me in hot water
[00:16.67]I'd gladly follow out your suggestions
[00:21.00]If you'd give me the answers to these questions
[00:26.03]Please tell me
[00:31.04]Is it a crime to start each day
[00:35.22]With a laugh and a smile and a song
[00:39.21]And is it a crime to end each day
[00:43.68]With a laugh and a smile and a song
[00:46.33]Is it wrong is it a crime
[00:49.40]To call the world your valentine
[00:56.02]Is it a crime to grab a lamp-post
[01:00.10]And then sing Sweet Adeline
[01:05.07]I ask you
[01:09.17]Is it a crime to save a wee
[01:13.03]Baby bird when it falls from its nest
[01:17.37]That little bird should have a chance
[01:21.07]To fly like all the rest
[01:26.23]So if it's a crime to help old ladies cross the street
[01:31.96]Then put me in jail
[01:33.75]Without bail
[01:35.30]Bread and water from an old tin pail
[01:40.18]If that's if that's a crime
[01:48.10]Is it a crime
[01:50.73]Inspector I'm puzzled
[01:52.73]We're taught two things as we go through life
[01:55.58]One Be thy brother's keeper
[01:57.96]And two Mind your own business
[02:01.01](With a laugh and a smile and a song )
[02:03.33]Now if I know something and by telling it to someone
[02:06.23]In distress
[02:07.24]I could change that person's life and bring them the
[02:10.69]Bluebird of happiness
[02:14.25]Is it a crime to tell him or is it a crime not to
[02:18.21]Is it that you mustn't or you've got to
[02:21.13]Should you say: "Hey watch out for that banana peel
[02:23.58]Bud "
[02:24.67]Or just remain silent and then laugh as he crashes
[02:28.57]With a thud
[02:30.93]Inspector my job is to get messages to people on
[02:34.08]Time
[02:34.80]If I have a job and I see it through
[02:38.32]And it's just my duty that I do do do
[02:43.14]Is that is that --
[02:46.84]Inspector let's go back a few thousand years
[02:49.94]If there had been answering services then and if it
[02:52.88]Had been up to me
[02:53.82]I could have changed the course of history
[02:56.21]I could have prevented many a famous tragedy
[02:59.72](With a laugh and a smile and a song )
[03:01.62]Why every night I lie awake and my cheeks grow
[03:05.20]Soaking wet
[03:07.28]When I think of what I could have done for Romeo and
[03:11.11]Juliet
[03:13.99]"Hello Verona-Phone Oh yes Mr Romeo Juliet
[03:17.98]Capulet called The message is: 'To avoid getting
[03:21.14]Married to other fellow am playing dead Friar
[03:24.12]Laurence gave me a great big sleeping pill but when I
[03:27.19]Wake up we'll head for the border ' Oh don't thank
[03:30.33]Me it's all in a day's work "
[03:32.53]See what I could have done
[03:34.46]Maybe I'm right
[03:35.51]Maybe I'm wrong
[03:36.69]But if I got that message through on time I'm telling
[03:39.41]You
[03:40.23]Those two kids would be alive today
[03:44.14]So if it's a crime to help old ladies cross the
[03:47.64]Street
[03:50.18]Then I confess
[03:51.64]I'm just a mess
[03:53.24]Mother and Dad you were wrong I guess
[03:58.62]Inspector were they wrong
