Ballad of Charles Whitman
作詞:Richard Friedman
He was sitting up there for more than an hour Way up there on the Texas Tower Shooting from the twenty-seventh floor, yahoo
He didn't choke or slash or slit them Not our Charles Joseph Whitman He won't be an architect no more
Got up that morning calm and cool He picked up his guns and walked to school All the while he smiled so sweetly And it blew their minds completely They'd never seen an Eagle Scout so cruel
Now won't you think for the shame and degradation For the school's administration?
He put on such a bold and brassy show The Chancellor cried, 'It's adolescent And of course it's most unpleasant But I got to admit it was a lovely way to go'
There was a rumor about a tumor Nestled at the base of his brain He was sitting up there with his .36 Magnum Laughing wildly as he bagged 'em Who are we to say the boy's insane?
Now Charlie was awful disappointed Else he thought he was anointed To do a deed so lowdown and so mean

Now Charlie made the honor roll with ease Most all of his grades was A's and B's A real rip snorting, trigger squeezer Charlie proved a big crowd pleaser Though he had been known to make a couple C's
Some were dying, some were weeping Some were studying, some were sleeping Some were shouting, ‽Texas number one†Some were running, some were falling Some were screaming, some were bawling Some thought the revolution had begun
The doctors tore his poor brain down But not a snitch of illness could be found Most folks couldn't figure just-a why he did it And them that could would not admit it There's still a lot of Eagle Scouts around
There was a rumor about a tumor Nestled at the base of his brain He was sitting up there with his .36 Magnum Laughing wildly as he bagged 'em
Who are we to say the boy's in? Who are we to say the boy's in? Who are we to say the boy's insane?
