The Sound of Dying
(Sung to the tune of Sound of Silence)
And the Trump'porters bowed and prayed
To the neon Duck they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words it was forming
And the sign said 'The words of the prophets are
written on the White House walls
And bunker halls'
And echoed
In the voice of the people
And in the naked light I saw
The thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People rending their hearts crying
'We can't breathe, we can't breathe'
'Don't shoot! Don't shoot!'
'No justice, no peace'
'No justice, no peace'
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of dying
