Intro:

Verse 1:
November 4, 2008
Election Day – in every state
November 4, 2008
Who will win? – which presidential candidate?

Verse 2:
We have the right and opportunity
To use our power granted by democracy
In the USA, we have the choice
To be silent – or to use our voice

Chorus 1:
Democracy
It’s a guarantee
That in the land of the free
You will be heard
Democracy
Oh please, hear my plea
I know we can all agree
You need to be involved

Verse 3:
We need your vote this upcoming election
Check a box – make a selection
Does this make sense? – do you understand?
Our nation’s next leader rests completely in your hand

Repeat Chorus 1: (x2)

Bridge: (x4)
Here’s your chance to make a difference
It’s your time to change the world

Repeat Chorus 1:
(key change)

Chorus 2:
Election Day
It’s not that far away
Go ahead and display
Democracy
Election Day
Oh and by the way
Hear me when I say
You won’t wanna miss out

Outro:
November 4, 2008
Election Day – I can’t wait
