Ode to the Reluctant Voter

Ode to the Reluctant Voter

Maybe I wear tinfoil hats
Or share my house with lots of cats
It really doesn't matter, Slick
When you don't vote I get to pick

So I might be a corporate tool
Or just some simple jobless fool
Since you can't come and vote today
I'll be to one who gets to play

I'll pick a guy for what he knows
Of God or maybe UFO's
As far as skill that he might lack
Who cares? He's bringing Elvis back

So put your feet up, have a beer
I know that you deserve your rest
And if you're worried, never fear
I'll pick the one I think is best

It would be entertaining, even funny, if it wasn't so damn scary.

Meh. It's not like they bring out better choices for the intelligent/rational voters.
