TALKIN MAIL-IN BALLOT BLUES

I’m gonna let you know how I feel
I’m going to let you know exactly how I feel
Don’t tell me I don’t count ’cause I dropped it in the mail

Let me add to the tally of those opposed
Let me add to the tally of those who stand opposed
Don’t tell me I don’t count ’cause I dropped it in the mail

I say watch me sign in blood instead of ink
Watch me sign in blood instead of ink
Don’t tell me I don’t count ’cause I dropped it in the mail

I sealed your fate & even got my postmark
I did I sealed your fate & I even got a postmark
Don’t tell me I don’t count ’cause I dropped it in the mail

My ballot was delivered now it's time you go
I know my ballot was delivered so now it's time for you to go
Don’t tell me I don’t count ’cause I dropped it in the mail
