Mr Preston Damsky Has Threatened My Life
Preston Damsky speaks what he considers ‘his truth’ to power
That’s how he attained his ‘shining hour’
A law student at the University of Florida
He called to ‘abolish the Jews, by any means necessary’
A judge found Preston innocent, citing the First Amendment
as if it were one of the Ten Commandments
Though decent folks always thought that every man’s freedom stops
where another man’s begins...
Well, here I am tonight to speak my truth to Mr. Damsky:
Your ‘freedom’ is unearned, for you have threatened my life
And you will be a lawyer, perhaps a judge too, later in life
So, what will you do, you bigot, when I argue my case against you
