Cast Your Vote
Whatever issue’s got your goat,
Today’s the day to hustle
To where you get to cast your vote
And flex your civic muscle.
Debates are over, ads are done;
You’ve come to a conclusion,
So mark your ballot. Everyone
Is under the illusion
That who we want will likely win
But half of us, in choosing,
Will pick the one, to our chagrin,
Who’ll end up badly losing.
Better, though, to take a stand
And have our choice recorded,
Since some of us throughout the land
Will have our hopes rewarded.
