Waiting For The Polls To Close

Seems we're in a tight spot
 It's too long since the war stopped
 And there's no time left to lend a hand
 And look who's at the wheel with Uncle Sam
 Dancing in the daylight
 Morning's such a bright night
 Same sky where children play
 Play their games half a world away
 Light filled the sky
 But I can't remember why
 Ring around the rosie
 Your pockets full of holes deep
 Lost it all while you sleep
 And there's even less for those out on the street
 It just doesn't seem right
 Standing in the twilight
 Waiting for the polls to close
 The shows run by the one nobody chose
 Light filled the sky
 But I can't remember why
 Night came to stay
 And it's always been this way
 Seems we're in a tight spot
 It's too long since the bomb dropped
 And there's no time left to lend a hand
 And look who's at the wheel with Uncle Sam
 The war hawks circle high above the lamb
 A wolf in sheep's clothing takes a stand
 Waiting for the polls to close
 The shows run by the one nobody chose
 There's no time left to lend a hand
 And look whose at the wheel with Uncle Sam
 Light filled the sky
 But I can't remember why
 Night came to stay
 And it's always been this way
 Light filled the sky
 Now there's no one left to cry
 Night came to stay
 And it's always been this way
