Sufjan Stevens Adlai Stevenson song lyrics

Righteous men of the earth

Oh, have you been patient

I suppose our thoughts about United Nations

Adlai, Adlai

What did he say

And what is the answer?

1952, the heart was not your master

The accident you threw

Would carry through your laughter

Evidence, evidence

I've heard of it

And what is the answer?

Adlai, Adlai

Your holiday

The greatest of men, sir

Adlai, Adlai

What did he say

And what is the answer?
