Lyrics
WASTED MY VOTE AGAIN (To the tune of Margaritaville) I'm a Palm Beach voter,even though I am older I still know what to do in that voting booth But those who are younger,they stare and wonder If I have strength enough to punch all the way through CHORUS: Wasted my vote again in the election here Should 've read the instructions on the wall Some people claim that the voters are to blame But,I know,oh it couldn't be our fault Buchannan or Al Gore,who did I vote for Had to put on my glasses so I could drive home And there on the TV,when they interviewed me Looked like I didn't know what the hecks goin' on CHORUS: Wasted my vote again in the election here Should've read those instructions on the wall Some people claim that the voters are to blame I don't know,maybe it could be our fault A convoy of vote cards,this thing has gone too far How long's it take to elect a president When I cast my ballot,I should've used a mallet 'Cause now it's up to the courts to say just what I meant CHORUS: Wasted my vote again in the election here Should've read those instructions on the door Republicans complain that the voters were insane All I know is I voted for Gore
