"From the wars against disorder,
from the sirens night and day,
from the fires of the homeless,
from the ashes of the gay:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A....
From the wells of disappointment
where the women kneel to pray...
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A....
It's here they got the range
And the machinery for change..."
From Leonard Cohen, "Democracy"
