Luyện nghe bài hát The Ballad of Charles Whitman

He was sitting up there for than an hour
Way up on the Texas Tower
Shooting from the twenty-seventh floor,

He choke or slash or slit them
Not our Charles Whitman
He wont be an architect no

Got up that calm and cool
He picked up his and walked to school
All the he smiled so sweetly
And it their minds completely
Theyd never seen an Eagle Scout so

Now wont you think for the shame and
For the schools

He put on a bold and brassy show
The Chancellor cried, "Its
And of course its unpleasant
But I got to admit it was a way to go"

was a rumor about a tumor
Nestled at the of his brain
He was sitting up there with his .36
Laughing wildly as he em
Who are we to say the insane?

Now Charlie was awful
he thought he was anointed
To do a deed so and so mean

The students looked up from their
Had to stop and rub glasses
Whod believe hed once been a

Now Charlie made the roll with ease
Most all of his was As and Bs
A rip snorting, trigger squeezer
Charlie proved a big pleaser
he had been known to make a couple Cs

Some were dying, were weeping
Some studying, some were sleeping
Some shouting, Texas number one
Some running, some were falling
Some were screaming, some were
Some thought the had begun

The doctors tore his poor brain
But not a snitch of could be found
Most folks couldnt just-a why he did it
And them could would not admit it
Theres still a lot of Eagle Scouts

There was a about a tumor
Nestled at the base of his
He was up there with his .36 Magnum
Laughing as he bagged em

Who are we to say the in?
Who are we to say the in?
Who are we to say the boys
