And everywhere theyd go, theyd shout
~#**************#~
And though I covered my eyes I knew
~#**************#~
Theyd go away
~#**************#~
But fears the only thing I saw
~#**************#~
And three days later was clear to all
~#**************#~
That nothing is as scary as Election Day
~#**************#~
But the day after is darker
~#**************#~
And darker and darker it goes
~#**************#~
Who knows? Maybe the plans will change
~#**************#~
Who knows? Maybe hes not deranged
~#**************#~
The newsmen know what they know, but they
~#**************#~
Know even less than what they say
~#**************#~
And I dont know who I can trust
~#**************#~
For they come what may
~#**************#~
‘Cause we believed in our candidate
~#**************#~
But even more, its the one we hate
~#**************#~
I needed someone I could shake
~#**************#~
On Election Day
~#**************#~
But the day after is darker
~#**************#~
And deeper and deeper we go
~#**************#~
Who knows? Maybe its all a dream
~#**************#~
Who knows if Ill wake up and scream
~#**************#~
I love the things that youve given me
~#**************#~
I cherish you, my dear country
~#**************#~
But sometimes I dont understand
~#**************#~
The way we play
~#**************#~
I love the things that youve given me
~#**************#~
And most of all that I am free
~#**************#~
To have a song that I can sing
~#**************#~
On Election Day
