A Lot More Shirley Chisholms
Thoughts skewed by algorithms
caught in thought complacency
dumbstruck and stuck in schisms
of moral rot and latency
We’re lost in planes and prisms
we’re distracted by our screens
we need a lot more Shirley Chisholms
in the land of the obscene
A greedy bigot runs the show
we all get painted by his brush
America’s lost that special glow
and the world’s been stunned
into a hush
[Chorus]
We’ve gone from taking huddled masses
yearning to be free
to terrorizing humans
trying to earn their currency
We’ve tamped the lamp of freedom
we closed the golden door
that shining city on the hill
is just a giant Walmart store
We choose a news that won’t refute us
we set up camps, we pick a side
we seek a truth that won’t dispute us
we all refuse to swallow pride
Lady Liberty has vanished
in a MAGA world of hate
she’s a dead idea in bronze and stone
we can’t resuscitate
We’ve become constant politickers
never doubting what we see
walking talking bumper stickers
with no humanity
[Chorus]
We’ve gone from taking huddled masses
yearning to be free
to terrorizing humans
trying to earn their currency
We’ve tamped the lamp of freedom
we closed the golden door
that shining city on the hill
is just a giant Walmart store
