Election Eve

Twas the night before elections
And all through the land
Every television was stirring
With yet another political ad.

The "chads" were hanging
on the ballots with care.
In hopes this election
is won fair and square.

When out in the mailbox
there arose such a clatter.
Are those bills or letters
or just more political matter?

Now, Barack! Now, McCain!
Now, Palin! Now, Biden.
Let's get this election done
so we can stop all this fightin'.

We'll spring to the polls
and exercise our right.
Will we know our new leader
by the stroke of midnight?

So make your decision.
The time for voting nears.
Happy Election Day to all.
We'll see you in 4 years!
