I pushed the Microphone Down
Tribute to an Unknown Hero
I pushed the microphone down.
He was speaking those famous words.
The Television camera could not see him.
So just in time, I put my hand in the way
And pushed the microphone down.
The words he spoke would have been the same
There would have been no change in history
There was no real importance
To my act you see
His face held such emotion
His heart was full of conviction
But you would have never seen all this
If I had not pushed the microphone down
My place in history is assured
Although no one knows my name
As long as people watch that speech on TV
You will all see my Legacy
I pushed the microphone down
You can see my Hand and my intention
I just wanted the world to see him
It was my job you see
As long as the speech is replay
As long as Dr. King’s Dream lasts
You can see me
I pushed the microphone down.
