Текст песни What Did You Do on Election Day? (The Foremen) с переводом

What did you do on election day,

Oh, dear brother of mine?

What did you do on election day,

My darlin' brother?

I kicked the pamphlets off the porch an'

Read the latest Forbes and Fortune,

Went to work on my tan,

Felt distinctly disenfranchised,

Threw my Bee Gees records away.

That’s what I did on election day.

That’s what I did last Tuesday.

What did you do on election day,

Oh, dear sister of mine?

What did you do on election day,

My darlin' sister?

I met the girls at the courts,

Wrote a note to Arnold Schwarzenegger,

Caught up on my soaps,

Pinched my cheeks and dashed my hopes,

Threw my sample ballot away.

That’s what I did on election day.

That’s what I did last Tuesday.

What did you do on election day,

Oh, dear father of mine?

What did you do on election day,

My darlin' daddy?

I cashed my check and cleaned my gun,

Read Cal Thomas and the funnies,

Made a payment on my plot,

Thought a thought I’ve since forgotten,

Threw my recycling buckets away.

That’s what I did on election day

That’s what I did last Tuesday.

What did you do on election day,

Oh, dear cousin of mine?

What did you do on election day,

My distant cousin?

I voted! — «What?!»

I voted Yes on A-B-C

No on W-X-Y-Z

Tore my stub, drove home and then,

Back to the polls and voted again…

And again, and again…

Once for everyone who stayed away,

That’s what I did last Tuesday.

Otherwise a real slow news day.
