Barbra Streisand - Not Cricket to Picket
Oh no, it's just not coming for to picket
You haven't any right, you know
You're acting in great haste
Just think of the predicament
In which your boss is placed
And, entre nous, I think
It's in exceedingly bad taste
Not cricket to picket, not cricket
It's not cricket to picket, not cricket
Atrocious and gauche, you know, to picket
Go home and starve like gentlemen
Not like a noisy brood
Real ladies never make a fuss
Though they lack clothes and food
And money's never talked about
For that would be quite rude
Not cricket to picket, not cricket
It's not picket to cricket, not picket
Uncultured and unmannerly to picket
You know you're misbehaving now
You mustn't lose your mind
You're being so inelegant
And frankly quite unkind
Excuse my indiscretion
But you're ardent unrefined
Not picket to cricket, not picket
It ain't ticket to stick it not picket
Now officer, get each man there a cricket
Oh, dear, where is your decency
No Vanderbilts or Asters
Would ask in such a vulgar way
Befitting only dastards
I beg you get the hell away
You lousy bunch of-
What do you mean "disturbing the peace"?
Come with you?
Offi - Officer, you're bruising my mink
Get your hands off, kid!
You don't seem to know who I am
Or whom I know
Listen, I'm an intimate friend of Jimmy Walker
You won't get me in that black wagon!

Biography
By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.
Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US chart-toppers: “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
For the rest of the 80s and into the 90s, Streisand continued adding to her already diverse collection of releases including pop songs, Broadway standards and successful films like Yentyl, The Prince of Tides and The Mirror Has Two Faces – the latter featuring the 1996 duet “I Finally Found Someone” with Bryan Adams that remains her last top 10 US hit (and appearance on the Hot 100).
Streisand has had continued success on the albums chart in the 2000s with three more chart-toppers, despite their lack of mainstream hits. At over 60 million albums sold in the US, she remains one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time. Streisand also continues to sell out concert halls with her performances, receive various awards for her contributions to music and film, and be recognized for her support of various social and humanitarian causes.
