Election Night Blues

Election Night Blues

Slumped down in my leather chair
and sippin' sweet iced tea
thinkin' 'bout where the world went
and glad it ain't because of me.

No sir, I don't need the worry
of hopin' this world turns around.
If I were God, I'd turn the dogs loose
and tree this mess with hell's hounds.

I'm lookin' out my dirty window
and watching this thing circle the drain.
When it finally all goes down
it'll go screamin' in mortal pain.

I guess I'll go down with it.
I'm a part of this crazy zoo.
But lookin' straight in your eyes
I see you're goin' too!
