Both parties align on either side of the bridge Now they inch to the center to meet face to face If they fall, there's a tall, 200 foot ridge Once they reach the middle, they gain back their haste They're now yelling, not pleading--like a clown Wanting what they want, "All else is a waste" People on the edge yell, "shoot 'em down" "This is 'Merica! We don't want em" "Burn this bridge down and let them drown" A couple screams--Ken and Karen And one from the crowd steps on Few will let him be condemned He says he has a vision "It's a new kind of bridge" Holds knife there upon Not looking, unhinged Not looking, bows Rights are infringed It is now going down

Both parties align on either side of the bridge Now they inch to the center to meet face to face If they fall, there's a tall, 200 foot ridge Once they reach the middle, they gain back their haste They're now yelling, not pleading--like a clown Wanting what they want, "All else is a waste" People on the edge yell, "shoot 'em down" "This is 'Merica! We don't want em" "Burn this bridge down and let them drown" A couple screams--Ken and Karen And one from the crowd steps on Few will let him be condemned He says he has a vision "It's a new kind of bridge" Holds knife there upon Not looking, unhinged Not looking, bows Rights are infringed It is now going down
