I'm Against It

Horse Feathers (1/9) Movie CLIP - I'm Against It (1932) HD

[WAGSTAFF]
I don't know what they have to say
It makes no difference anyway
Whatever it is, I'm against it
No matter what it is or who commenced it
I'm against it

Your proposition may be good
But let's have one thing understood:
Whatever it is, I'm against it
And even when you've changed it or condensed it
I'm against it

I'm opposed to it
On general principles, I'm opposed to it

[STUDENTS]
He's opposed to it
In fact, indeed, he's opposed to it

[WAGSTAFF]
For months before my son was born
I used to yell from night till morn
"Whatever it is, I'm against it."
And I've been yelling since I first commenced it
I'm against it

[FRANK]
Knowing Dad as I do
I'd not advise you
To displease him
Or tease him
No, no!
Don't double-cross him
Or toss him
Around
When dear old Dad
Once gets mad
He's a hound

(Chorus)
[WAGSTAFF]
My son is right
I'm quick to fight
I'm from a fighting clan
When I'm abused
Or badly used
I always get my man
No matter if he's in Peru, Paducah, or Japan
I go ahead
Alive or dead
I always get my man
I soon disposed
Of all of those
Who put me on the pan
Like Shakespeare said to Nathan Hale
"I always get my man."
(dance break)

[STUDENTS AND PROFESSORS]
He always gets his man

[WAGSTAFF]
That's what I said

[STUDENTS AND PROFESSORS]
He always gets his man

[WAGSTAFF]
That's what I mean

[STUDENTS AND PROFESSORS]
He always gets his man

[WAGSTAFF]
You're telling me

[STUDENTS AND PROFESSORS]
He always gets his man

[WAGSTAFF]
Oh, are you listening?
[STUDENTS AND PROFESSORS]
He gets his man
He gets his man

[WAGSTAFF]
I always get
I always get
I always get
I always get
I always get
I always get
I always get my man!
