To the tune of "Bridge over Troubled Water" They're the power Feeling tall Pulling politicians strings Lords over all Having their way Oh, for years on end Climbers getting in line Then they ran into Thomas Massie Well, I will be damned Yes, they ran into Thomas Massie Well, I will be damned Such cocks of the walk Just see how they strut And how big they do talk Looking down on us Selling us out While lining up votes With "yes" men all around Then they ran into Thomas Massie Well, I will be damned Yes, they ran into Thomas Massie Well, I will be damned Sail on AIPAC crew, sail on by Your time has come and gone Along with those in your pay It won't be long Oh, let them try their tricks Strong-arming everyone But with more men like Thomas Massie Freedom is in sight Yes, with more men like Thomas Massie Freedom is in sight. David Martin
Dave Martin is always brilliant; but one of the most original and important pieces of writing I have ever seen is his song lyrics; “Then They Ran Into Thomas Massie.” I wish I could claim to have once met Dave Martin (and Thomas Massie).
