Proboulos
In ancient Greece, a proboulos was a commissioner or magistrate. Classical scholar Xavier Riu writes that it was a position created during the Peloponnesian War "to cope with the difficult situation of Athens at that moment of the war, and it was formed by aged and probably very respected men."
Among the notable probouloi were the playwright Sophocles and the general Hagnon
In the comedy Lysistrata, a proboulos goes on a tirade against Lysistrata after losing a long debate.

Miss Hit And Run
by: Barry BlueAll of the guys in this town
Say get out of her way, slow down
You've never met Miss hit and run
She will break your heart in two
You don't know what she can do
Of any of the girls you meet
She's gonna lead you down a one way street
And then you're really hurting deep
You should have known better, you should have known better
You should have known better, you should have known better
I should have known better, I should have known better
You should have known better, you should have known better
She will break your heart in two
You don't know what she can do
Watch out fellas
she's gonna break your heart
She's gonna run - run
She will take you for a ride
And leave you hurtin' deep inside
And if you see her red light
And you think you should stop, you're dead right
You've never met Miss hit and run
You should have known better, you should have known better ....
She will break your heart in two
You don't know what she can do
She will take you for a ride
