“Could you see the aisles of women?
Could you see them screaming and weeping?
Could you see the storm rising?
Could you see the guy who was driving?
Could you climb higher and higher?
Could you climb right over the top?”

Looking over the edge,
You could see them coming.”

In their big, black car,
To be a threat to the men in power.
