“Does injustice matter?
Does it matter? Losing your case?
For (higher) law will always be kind
To those hunting for justice.
And you need not show that you mind
When power comes in to gobble their splendid work
As you sit on the isle remembering
And turning your heart to the light.
Does it matter? That they threw your dreams to the pits?
Forget those dreams and be glad
And people won’t say that you’re mad
For they’ll know that you fought for a fad,
The principles!
And no one will scold you a bit.”
