Vote For Me Lyrics - Electric Light Orchestra

This crappy west coast hippie scene is becoming quite a drag 

It seems that all my freaky clothes are turning into rag 

The time has come to break the strings 

Free to form constructive things 

Tear the world right off it's hinges 

Chorus 

Vote for me 

Vote for me 

Sign across the line 

Vote for me 

Vote for me 

We can overtake the world 

For some millions in this place and their views are never heard 

They take precautions just in case you say a dirty word 

With adverts comments they promote 

Re-elections antidote, just a game to catch your vote 

Chorus 

Take up your pen 

You won't regret it 

Never met such an opportunity 

For the people who are in the way 

Make a new election day 

Please correct me if I seem to be making too much noise 

In this profession people rush to cut you down to size 

So after all the seats are played 

Dig my brain with a golden spade 

Theres a fortune to be made 

Chorus and repeat
