Where do I stand what do I say
What is there left at the end of the day to explain again and again

I'll think of something and then make up my mind
The curtain is closing
I don't really want to be falling behind this time
Running away with the thought

That life's going to change
It's a banquet of lies
I can count down the hours, the minutes
But no matter how hard that I try
I know we all act surprised there's no running away
On election day

Well I think I know but then I guess that I don't
How can I make up my mind and still vote and remain in your game

Maybe it's nothing but it could change my life
When some airheads are running away
With all of the good things I like
Hey! Where do I sign
Running away with the thought

That life's going to change
It's a banquet of lies
As they roll out the news painted red then painted in blue
I know we all act surprised there's no running away
On election day
