Moonwalker

The young man read from the constitution

His jittered voice seeking retribution

He raised his head up in desperation

His piercing eyes pleading for salvation

May he seize the day

Justice will be made

May he live to fight another day

Climbing up the wall

Passionate head-strong

Could he get it wrong

The old man laughed with condescension

Waived his finger with sordid tension

Didn't care for any of the allegations

And slammed the hefty folder in frustration

He can take it all away

With a single sway

Put it all behind and never think again

Or will he choose to see

All that lies beneath

And keep the oath he took

You weigh it out and you get the picture

There is nothing holding up the fixture

It's all about interpretation

Shiny shoes and silky presentation

Tuck me in tonight

Hug me hold me tight

Stroke my hair and say it'll be alright

Walk with me tonight

The Moon is full and bright

Look into my eyes and see through me

May he seize the day

Justice will be made

May he live to fight another day

Climbing up the wall

Passionate head-strong

Could he get it wrong
