They said it couldn’t happen
Don’t give in to your fears
But now nobody’s laughing
There’s far too many tears
As everything unraveled
The options disappeared
They said it couldn’t happen
Did it really happen here?
I put it on the record
I need to get this down
For if it happens someday
I might not be around
And as that day approaches
The scene becomes so clear
We’ll wring our hands and wonder
How did we let it happen here?
Now we stand around and wonder
Did it really happen here?
