Lyrics by David Rhees
(Vote!) Oh please let me vote Mr. Postman
(Vote!) Vo vo vo vo-ote Mr. Postman
Chorus 1: (Mr. Postman look and see) oh yeah
(Is there a ballot in your bag for me) Please please mister postman
(I've been waiting and Bidin’ my time) Whoa yeah
(Don’t make me go and stand in that line)
V. 1: Corona virus has me down in the dumps
Not to mention POTUS Donald Trump
I want elections to be safe and free
There ain’t no fraud in voting absentee
V. 2: Bring me my ballot, my ballot today
Then take it back, without delay
Mr. Postman, you hold the key
Please do not let them disenfranchise me
Chorus 2: Mr. Postman (Mr. Postman look and see)
Oh yeah (Is there a ballot in your bag for me)
Please please mister postman (I've been waiting and Bidin’ my time)
Whoa yeah (Don’t make me go and stand in that line)
Please deliver all of the votes
Cause if you don’t we will all be toast
Four more years would be the death of me
We gotta hold on to democracy
Chorus 3: So Mr. Postman look and see
Is there a ballot in your bag for me
I've been waiting and Bidin’ my time
Don’t make me go and stand in that line
Outro :
You gotta speed it up, speed it up, oh yeah
Speed it up, speed it up, oh yeah
You gotta speed it up, speed it up, oh yeah
If you speed up the mail, we can send him to jail
‘Cause we can vote him out, vote him out, oh yeah
Vote him out, vote him out, oh yeah
Vote him out, vote him out, oh yeah
We gotta win this election and change our direction
Gotta vote him out, vote him out (fade)
(Vote!) Oh please let me vote Mr. Postman
(Vote!) Vo vo vo vo-ote Mr. Postman
