In life's brief game to be a winner
A man must have...oh yes, above
All else, of course, someone to love.
The Golden Gate (1986)
Ten hostages is terrorism;
A million, and it's strategy.
To ban books is fanaticism;
To threaten in totality
All culture and all civilization,
All humankind and all creation,
This is a task of decorous skill
And needs high statesmanship and will.
The Golden Gate (1986)
Catholic and Episcopalian,
Lutheran, Baptist, Methodist,
Jew, Muslim, Buddhist, atheist,
We are all here; no one is alien
Now radiation's common laws
Impel us into common cause.
The Golden Gate (1986)
