Lyrics State of the Union - Chicago
I
was
talking
'bout
the
state
of
the
union
How
there's
no
one
now
in
power
thinking
of
me
I
was
saying
how
we
ought
to
try
to
fix
it
Find
a
leader
who
is
not
afraid
to
be
Then
a
voice
came
out
of
the
darkness
Saying
"Tear
the
system
down"
Tear
it
down
I
was
thinking
'bout
how
that
was
very
crazy
And
I
tried
to
find
a
way
to
tell
him
so
But
when
I
did
I
used
a
word
that
was
quite
nasty
How
the
policeman
heard
me
now
I'll
never
know
Then
a
voice
came
out
of
the
darkness
Saying
"Tear
the
system
down"
Tear
it
down
- down
to
the
ground
I
was
wrestled
of
to
one
side
of
the
theatre
And
they
said
I'd
have
to
go
right
to
jail
They
don't
permit
coarse
language
in
their
city
But
they
did
accept
a
large
amount
of
bail
Then
a
voice
came
out
of
the
darkness
Saying
"Tear
the
system
down"
Tear
it
down
- down
to
the
ground
