Election Year

The election year, it's upon us again,
We must decide once again who will win. 

The media is misleading, and often quite crude,
The candidates themselves are liars, and lewd. 

The rally's are exciting, and full of good fun,
But things do get ugly, before it's all done.

It's become a real circus, with villains and clowns,
But a decision must be made in our cities and towns. 

Do you vote for the corrupt nominee wearing blue,
Or go for the red, in his political debut?
