Michael Merenda: Listen
Election Day
(from the album "Election Day")
Man, whatever. This song comes across as dark and cynical I guess. How would yr song about the 2000 presidential campaign go?
ELECTION DAY
© 2003 m j m j r ∞
Point yr antenna straight at the sky
Hear the priviledged white people broadcast last minute lies
On Election Day
In the USA
And the harder I listen the more I tune out
But it aint my reception it’s what they’re talkin about
On Election Day
In the USA
If the political hum-drum’s been gettin’ you down
While we’re dumbed by our TVs and we don’t make a sound
And you follow the leader to a place where it’s safe
But now an Ice Age is comin’ and this is really happenin they say
Point yr antenna straight at the sky
Hear the priviledged white people broadcast last minute lies
On Election Day
In the USA
