Why Vote?

Here we go again
Sign after sign
Only but, for a brief time
The willful deceit
All the lies
Why should we care?
Can they carry a tune?
Will they save the earth and all man kind
By my vote, no, not just mine
Why call it a first class community
When all the rich are heart less punks
Runnin' this society, oh my, oh my, the calamity
When neighbors talk behind your back
Spreadin' rumors we sell drugs
Will they take a dealer
Give them hugs?
Let the chips fall where they may
Just for this
Election day
