PERSISTENCE

 

Hey Mitch, what is that you’re saying
While Liz Warren speaks her thing?
An old letter she’s reciting
Written by Loretta King

Stating facts about Jeff Sessions
On this point she didn’t budge
Telling why, in her opinion
He’s unfit to be a judge

Warren’s point in letter reading:
Session’s steeped in bigotry
Voting records are revealing
He’s unfit to be AG

Mitch McConnell couldn’t bear it
That a woman strongly speaks
Wouldn’t let the Senate hear it
Forced Sen. Warren to her seat

Mitch then publicly declared
She was warned but she persisted
Reading more and more she dared
Couldn’t stand that she resisted

Four more Senators responded
Reading from Loretta’s letter
Not a word from Mitch McConnell
Men are free to speak unfettered

In the end Jeff was confirmed
Attorney General, but RESISTANCE
Gathered strength, events that turned
To rally ’round the word, PERSISTENCE
