I was imagining being in the middle of a Senate session
nobody said anything to each other or me they spoke to the distance
it all bounced off the walls and of course I said what I thought
but no one would listen

no Democrat or Republican would hear my union songs

I wonder if they care what I saw in my 24 short years

If they respected my quarter century here

on this long island I was born they call New York

All my hard work

I heard late in the night the President I voted for extended the Patriot Act

can’t say I agree with that

what’s my freedom worth?

A million questions

I was imagining being in the middle of a Senate session

[[soundtrack to my thoughts]]
