Please come to Washington, DC

An adaption on the lyrics of a song called "Chicago" written many years ago by Graham Nash.

"So your brother's bound and gagged
And they've chained him to a chair
Won't you please come to the Senate just to sing
In a land that's known as Freedom
How can such a thing be fair?
Won't you please come to Washington for the help that we can bring

We can change the world
Rearrange the world
It's dying - to get better
Politicians get yourselves lost
We are sick of you here

Won't you please come to Washington for a ride
Don't ask them to help you'Cause they'll turn a deaf ear
Won't you please come to Washington or else join the other side

We can change the world
Rearrange the world
It's dying - if you believe in justice
It's dying - and if you believe in freedom
It's dying - let a man live his own life
It's dying - wars and occupations
Who needs them, open up the door

Somehow Iraqis must be free
I hope the day comes soon
Won't you please come to Washington, show your face
From the bottom of the ocean
To the mountains of the moon
Won't you please come to Washington, no one else can take your place

We can change the world............


Well, what we really need to change is in Washington DC. United for Peace and Justice is having a march and rally on September 24, 2005. This will be followed by a day of interfaith services and training for lobbying. And this will be followed by a day of lobbying on Capitol Hill. We need millions to show up.

Please come to Washington, no one else can take your place.
