I met you on Election Night

As we cried over our beer

Nothing you could do would cheer me up

We broke up later that year

How come you and I aren't winners?

Why weren't we born the other side?

    And it's raining

    And It's raining

    On Election Night



You fight, you fight but nothing changes

And when it does the payback's worse

We arrived here in the limo

We're going back home in a hearse

You know we're leaving none the wiser

I guess that we're just not that bright

    So I'll see you

    I'll see you

    Next Election Night



These balloons look so deflated

As they slowly float on down

It's been 4 years we've been waiting

For those balloons to hit the ground

It looks like you backed a real loser

Who thinks that life is black and white

    And it's raining

    Yes it's raining

    On Election Night
