Bitter Progressives Cling to Democratic Reforms, United States Constitution

What do you cling to when you cling?
What stirs you up and makes you sing?
Did the Liberty Bell make freedom ring?
What do you cling to, when you cling?

What do you fight for when you fight?
What gets you in your dreams at night?
Did someone come to steal your rights?
What do you fight for when you fight?

What do you do when reason fails?
What takes the wind out of your sails?
Did your blood run cold, did you turn pale?
What do you do when reason fails?

Why Rhyme the Words When Prose Will Do?

why rhyme the words when prose will do
why seek the beat and pattern?
why not just report the skies retort
and the blustering of Saturn?

the a, b, c of 1, 2, 3
the facts laid in a row
surely this will do the trick
to let your thoughts be known
