the haymarket squares - buy my vote lyrics
[chorus]
buy my vote, buy my vote, buy my vote, buy my vote
[verse 1]
well now that you’re a person, i’d like to have a chat
‘cause i could use some money and you’ve got a lot of that
spending without limits is my idea of fun
so if we’re both just people then let’s get this deal done
i’m going to make democracy start paying off for me
i don’t care what the founding fathers wrote
[chorus]
buy my vote, buy my vote, buy my vote, buy my vote
[verse 2]
i used to think that voting was a patriotic chore
election day was drudgery, the whole thing was a bore
now it’s a seller’s market, the supreme court doesn’t care
so i’m going to be the first in line, i’m going to get my share
i’m going to make democracy start paying off for me
the whole thing has become a cruel joke
[chorus]
buy my vote, buy my vote, buy my vote, buy my vote
[verse 3]
i take mastercard and visa, i take paypal, cash and checks
you’ve already bought the congress, so this won’t be a stretch
[verse 4]
i’m going to make democracy start paying off for me
and watch some corporation take the oath
[chorus]
buy my vote, buy my vote, buy my vote, buy my vote
