What are the Jets saying about juvenile delinquents throughout the song, Gee Officer Krupke?
The song “Gee, Officer Krupke” from West Side Story has lyrics that include: Gee, Officer Krupke, we’re very upset;We never had the love that ev’ry child oughta get.We ain’t no delinquents,We’re misunderstood.Deep down inside us there is good!There is good, there is good,There is untapped good!Like inside, the worst of us is good!This boy don’t need a doctor, just a good honest job.Society’s played him a terrible trick,And sociologic’ly he’s sick!
