I‘m inst a, student sir......_ 
     
    
   
   
    
     . . . And I only want to learn 
     
    

    
     But it’s hard to read through the rising smoke 
     
     ’Of the books you’d like to burn. 
     
    

    
     So I‘d like to make a promise 
     
    

    
     And I‘d like to make a vow 
     
    

    
     And when I've got something to say 
     
    

    
     I’m going to say it now. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Well you've given me a number 
     
    

    
     And you've taken off my name 
     
    

    
     And to get around this campus 
     
    

    
     Well you almost need a plane 
     
    

    
     And you’re supporting Chiang Kai Chek 
     
     , .And I’m supporting Mao 
     
    

    
     And when I’ve got something to say, sir 
     
    

    
     I’m going to say it now. 
     
    
   
   
    
     I wish that you’d make your mind up 
     
     lwish'that you’d decide 
     
    

    
     That I should live as freely 
     
    

    
     As those who live outside. 
     
    

    
     ’Cause we also are entitled 
     
    

    
     To the rights to be endowed. 
     
    

    
     When I’ve got something to say. sir 
     
     I'm going to say it now. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Well I’ve read of other countries 
     
    

    
     Where the students take a stand 
     
    

    
     They’ve even helped to overthrow 
     
    

    
     The leaders of the land. ’ 
     
    

    
     Now I wouldn’t go so far to say 
     
    

    
     We're also learning how 
     
    

    
     But when we’ve got something to say, sir 
     
     We’re going to say it now. 
     
    
   
   
    
     And things, they might be different 
     
    

    
     If I were here alone 
     
    

    
     But I’Ve got a friend or two 
     
    

    
     Who no longer lives at home 
     
    

    
     And we’ll respect our elders 
     
    

    
     Just as long as they allow 
     
    

    
     That when I’ve got something to say. sir 
     
     I'm going to say it now. 
     
    
   
   
    
     So keep right on a talking 
     
    

    
     And tell us what to do, 
     
    

    
     And if nobody listens 
     
    

    
     My apologies to you. 
     
    

    
     And I know that you were younger once 
     
     But sure are older now 
     
    

    
     And when I've got something to say. sir 
     
     I'm going to say it now. ‘
