I went down to get my check
The boss had rope burns 'round his neck
He hit the pipe and hit his wife again
The crowd's out in a football field
Flyin' their colors like a shield
And only God can tell them who will win
Well, the reds and blues and greens and whites
Will never match your eyes tonight
If I could talk, I wouldn't have to drink
The angels tend to speak in tongues
Just like we did when we were young
I wish you knew exactly what I think
Hey baby, I'd love to see you shine
It's election day again
I'd give a leg to make you mine
It's election day again
I swear to God I won't go blind again
Election day here in Nosara
Spent the last Colones I could borrow
To try to take you driving on the beach
Best we'll light a cigarette
A tangled slam, a pirouette
Another love I'm never gonna reach
Hey, baby, I'd love to get a life
It's election day again
A couple kids, maybe a wife
It's election day again
Some conversation'd sure be nice again
Another drink, I'm gonna rust
It's election day again
You've gotta face I could trust
It's election day again
Let's steal a truck and drive the fuck on outta here
'Cuz time is short and God's still on our side
Election day, San Salvador
Your eyes have seen it all before
You sure know how to call a kettle black
And there's scarlet paint up on the walls
And you ain't scared of guns at all
I get the feeling you ain't coming back
Hey baby, I'd love to see you smile
It's election day again
Maybe you'll stay with me a while
It's election day again
I've never run so many miles to find a friend
Hey baby, I'd love to see you shine
It's election day again
I'd give a leg to make you mine
It's election day again
Swear to God I won't go blind again
