https://suno.com/song/854f4e82-00b8-43f7-8d8d-d1cc007187efVerse 1 Neon flickered, smoke hung low Half the room already ready to go Old man starin’ in his beer Like trouble was already here Boots on tile, quiet got tight You could feel it 'fore the fight Bartender wiped the counter slow Like he already knew the show Verse 2 Door swung wide, cold blew in Room got still like a coming sin Guitar player stopped mid-chord Everybody leaned toward the door Then somebody laughed too hard Like they’d just pulled a wild card Nobody knew just who you were… But the whole room felt the stir Chorus A political song walked in a bar Didn’t get very far One side cheered, one side swore Nobody listened anymore Truth got drowned in a whiskey jar When a political song walked in a bar Verse 3 Somebody yelled, "Pick a side!" Somebody else said, "Truth just died" Chair legs scraped, tempers sparked Freedom stumbled in the dark Guitar player packed his case Said, "Music lost its place" Bartender just shook his head "Songs used to bring folks together," he said Final Chorus A political song walked in a bar Left with a broken guitar Nobody won, nobody learned Just another bridge that burned Silence humming where voices are… Since a political song walked in a bar Nuclear last line: Now even love songs get nervous when they walk in that bar.

I like the song. Much truth here and the scenario that you couched it in works well. Regards to you and the robots  Marty
