The Bridge of Freedom
Citizens sing hymns the bridge of freedom
Be it may this fragile structure
Built above liberal waters
That all may drive conservative
Be it may this fragile structure
That has caused quite a collision
Endless traffic and division
Which has led to superstition
Be it may this fragile structure
Seems to keep the people driving
And the poor content with walking
Those that do a lot of talking
Wake up drowning not from diving
Fearful of it's mighty power
Mindless of it's fragile structure
Yet in hymns the bridge of freedom
Yet forced hands to mold it's muscle
Yet was just a priceless puzzle
