SUFJAN STEVENS
"Adlai Stevenson"

Righteous men of the earth
Oh, have you been patients
I suppose our thoughts about United Nations

Adlai, Adlai
What did you say
And what is the answer?

Adlai, Adlai
What did he say
And what is the answer?

1952, the heart was not your master
The accident you threw
Would carry with your laughter

Evidence, evidence
I've heard of it
And what is the answer?

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 you say
And what is the answer?
