I'm tired of moon-songs, of star- and of June-songs
they simply make me nap
and ditties romantic
drive me nearly frantic
I think they're full of pap

History's making, nations are quaking
why sing of stars above
for while we are waiting
father time's creating
new things to be singing of

Sing me a song with social significance
or you can sing 'til you're blue
let meaning shine from ev'ry line
or I won't love you.
(Barbara Streisand)
