Respectfully Yours, Dudley Malone lyrics
Respectfully Yours, Dudley Malone
Dear Mr. President,
I address you today in an open letter in the Washington Post.
For seven years I have served you with the most humble affection and unshadowed devotion,
So it is no small sacrifice for me now to sever our political relationship.
But I think it is high time that men of this generation, at some cost to ourselves,
Stood up in support of the women of the country.
For if men had been peacefully demanding our right to vote for over half a century,
If men had been repeatedly ignored or met with evasion by Congress as have the women,
You, Mr. President, as a lover of liberty,
Would be the first to understand and forgive their natural impatience.
And righteous indignation, I took a vow to defend the Constitution,
And I may not be a great man, but I am a man who upholds his vows,
So I hereby resign to take effect at once, or at your earliest convenience.
I'd also like to make known my esteem for the woman,
For the women who opened my eyes to this inequality,
Respectfully yours,
Deadly Malone.
