The Sejm [sɛjm] ( listen) is the lower house of the Polish parliament. The Sejm is made up of 460 deputies, or Poseł in Polish (literally 'Envoy'). It is elected by universal ballot and is presided over by a speaker called the Marshal of the Sejm (Marszałek Sejmu).
In the Kingdom of Poland Sejm referred to the entire three-chamber parliament of Poland, comprising the lower house (Chamber of Envoys; Polish: Izba Poselska), the upper house (Senate; Polish: Senat) and the King. It was thus a three-estate parliament. Since the Second Polish Republic (1918–1939) Sejm has referred only to the lower house of the parliament; the upper house is called the Senat.
"Sejm" stems from an Old Slavic word meaning 'gathering'. Its origin were the King's Councils ('wiece'), which gained power during the time of Poland's fragmentation (1146–1295). The Sejm in 1182 in Łęczyca was the most notable of these councils, in that for the first time in Poland's history it established laws constraining the power of the ruler. It forbade arbitrary sequestration of supplies in the countryside and takeover of bishopric lands after the death of a bishop. However, these early Sejms were not a regular event and were formed only at the King's behest.
True Story
Everything That I Wanted, I Found It In You
Everything That I Dreamed of, You Made It Came True
Knew That There Were No Limits To What You Would Do for Me
But I Messed That Up Now
For a Night of Fun
What the Hell Was I Thinking?
Damn I Was Dumb, Had Too Much To Drink and
Now I'm Stuck With the Look On My Face of Disgrace
And I'm Feeling Like a Fool.
My Momma Told Me Everything That Glitters Ain't Gold
And If You Find a Good Woman Then
Baby Boy You Better Hold On
But I'm Weak Like Adam To Eve
I'm Down On My Knees
And Baby I Know
I Know That Sorry Doesn't Cut It
(I Refuse) To Let You Take Away Yo Loving
(I Refuse) Without You Babygirl I'm Nothing
(I Refuse) Tell Me What I Gotta Do
To Make Things Back Right With You
Because Sorry Is Not Enuff
I Know That Sorry Doesn't Cut It
