Here it is, comin' at ya, guys and gals. From AM radio, before it became the last bastion of the permanently demented,
"These booths are made for votin'"
(Sing to the tune of "These boots are made for walkin'." With apologies to Nancy Sinatra.)
Bumb-Bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb!
Ba-da. Bumb-Bumb, Ba-da, Bumb-bumb, Ba-da, Bumb-Bumb, ba-da. Bumb.
You keep saying
you got something for us,
Something you call “breaks,â€
but confess.
Down at the bottom,
we ain’t getting nothing,
‘Cause your rich friends
is getting all the rest.
These booths are made for voting’
That’s what we’re gonna do.
Come election day,
we’re going in,
And cast a vote ‘ganst you.
Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb!
Ba-da. Bumb-Bumb, Ba-da, Bumb-bumb, Ba-da, Bumb-Bumb, ba-da. Bumb.
Afgan warlords,
running out the doctors,
North Korea,
keeps on building Nukes.
“No Child Left Behindâ€
is goin’ hungry
Can’t win the peace
‘cause we ain’t got the “boots.â€
These booths are made for voting,
That’s what we’re gonna do.
Come election day, we’re going in,
And cast a vote ‘ganst you.
Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb!
Ba-da. Bumb-Bumb, Ba-da, Bumb-bumb, Ba-da, Bumb-Bumb, ba-da. Bumb.
You keep lying
when you oughta be truthin'
You keep thinking
that you’ll never get caught. Ha!
“Mission Accomplished†banner
don’t mean nothing.
Like Sharpton said,
our votes can’t be bought!
These booths are made for voting’
That’s what we’re gonna do.
Come election day, we’re going in,
And cast a vote ‘ganst you.
Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb, Bumb-bumb!
Ba-da. Bumb-Bumb, Ba-da, Bumb-bumb, Ba-da, Bumb-Bumb, ba-da. Bumb.
