I met you on election night   As we cried over our beers   Nothing you could do would cheer me up   We broke up later that year   How come you and I aren't winners?    Why weren't we born the other side?    And it's raining   It's raining   On election night      You fight, you fight and nothing changes   And when it does the payback's worse   We arrived here in limo   We drove home in a hearse   And we are none the wiser   I guess that we're just not so bright   So I'll see you   Yes I'll see you   Next election night      The balloons look so deflated   As they burst and float on down   It's been 4 years that we've waited   For those balloons to hit the ground   Looks like you backed a real loser   Who thinks that life is black and white   But he'll be back again   We'll be back again   Next election night
