Actually, I suggested, "and now a word from Sting & [insert politician name here]."
Naturally, I had a particular politician in mind, but the truth is I can't think of a politician who at one time or another wouldn't fit the bill.
John--being the sagacious artiste he is--clearly realized that & did it this way (which, in retrospect, I like better anyway, as it's more "open" & oddly ironic in regards to context).

Alas, I'm not terribly familiar with Sting, so I don't get the reference.

They're meaningless and all that's true
Poets, priests, and politicians
Have words to thank for their positions.
Words that scream for your submission
And no one's jamming their transmission
'Cause when their eloquence escapes you,
Their logic ties you up and rapes you

Now why was I even thinking Popeye? Well, I mentally stuck a corn cob pipe in that face, and for just a split second there...
