Well, I don’t know how to go west tonight
My neighbors are in such a plight
We’re so scared to venture out on the street
And we’re wondering what traffic we’ll meet
Highway to the left of us
Hill Street to the right
Here we are, stuck in the middle with you
Yes, we’re stuck in the middle with you
And we’re wondering what it is we should do
It’s so hard to go out for an errand
If we need to go between 5 and 7
Highway to the left of us
Hill Street to the right
Here we are, stuck in the middle with you
Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can see, it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to let the highway flow
’Cause all else will move so slow
Highway to the left of us
Hill Street to the right
Here we are, stuck in the middle with you

Bad for SouthamptonGordon Herr needs to step down as Southampton Town Democratic Committee chairman. To say this man has a bad attitude toward people is an understatement and threatens to do overwhelming harm to the Democratic Party here in the Hamptons. Mr....
It's a HavenRecently, the Village of North Haven hired a company to assess how to improve better cellphone coverage for our just over 900 residents [“North Haven To Explore Cellular Options,” 27east.com, April 15]. I want to thank the trustees for their...
UndemocraticThe Southampton Press editorial board recently criticized the lack of real democratic (lowercase d) choice in our local elections [“Under Attack,” Editorial, April 17]. They were right to do so. This year, Southampton Town voters will have no say in...
Beware of GrudgesAs the presumptive “henchwoman” of the Southampton Democratic Committee (thanks for the laugh!) [“House of Cards,” Letters, April 10], I want Southampton Democrats to understand that they are being fed a steady diet of misinformation, half-truths and outright lies by...
A Case StudyA note of thanks to The Southampton Press editorial board for alerting the public to the quid pro quo game playing out in Southampton politics [“Under Attack,” Editorial, April 17]. Southampton Town has become a case study in fusion voting...
The RealityThe Southampton Press’s April 17 editorial, “Under Attack,” rightly laments congressional Republican attempts to disenfranchise millions of citizens from voting via the SAVE Act. Unfortunately, that same editorial relies on misinformed perceptions to cast aspersions on the Southampton Town Democratic...
