Sucked into a Black Box

Kerry won the exit polls
yet, Bush remains the king
‘cause the votes cast here,
disappear there and the press doesn’t say a thing
‘cause they’re partners with the party
who owns the Goddamn things

chorus:
My vote was sucked into a black box
sucked into the machine
my vote was liberated from me
and cast into the sea
my vote was taken by my government friends
never to be seen again

The machines, my friends, are easily hacked
it’s a trade secret deal
the machines are faulty and easily cracked
it’s a trade secret deal
tax dollars become high tech tools
for another election steal

The Help America Vote Act passed
and created these machines
they’ve stolen two elections now
yet, the people haven’t seen
America’s been slimed by treacherous crime
it’s time, to scrub it clean

Brad Freidman and Bev Harris
are patriots to the core
and the mainstream press are traitorous,
sniveling, collusive, neo-con whores
‘cause their silence is their tacit consent
and our freedoms die once more
