President Lyricsby . From Ragtime President by YOUNGER BROTHER The Republican vice-presidential candidate was to be in the city that evening to attend a rally. The Secret Service was at the ready. The recent assassination of President McKinley had been a lesson well learned. Guns were going off everywhere. (The Vice Presidential campaign enters. Posters, banners, a marching band, the incumbent candidate waving. He poses for photographs with J.P. MORGAN on the back of a train. But it's all slightly surreal, as filtered through SARAH's consciousness.) SARAH I'll tell him... President, I am coming to you On behalf of Coalhouse Walker He don't know I'm here... He's much too proud! And I ain't much of a talker But President, he needs your help, sir You're the only one 'Cause Coalhouse, he won't marry me Till this thing is done And President, we got a son! (The march music is suddenly very loud, very real. SARAH breaks through the police barricade and rushes towards him, her arm outstretched to him.) SARAH President! President!! MORGAN She's got a gun! (The police officers club SARAH with their nightsticks. She falls to the ground.) [Thanks to Yehuda Alexander for lyrics]
