Leap Of Faith

Every four years at this time

Things get a little hairy

But the Tuesday after Halloween's

The day that's really scary

Pumpkin orange, witch hat black

Are Autumn's spooky hues

But this year since New Hampshire

We've had reds and whites and blues

And in just a few weeks time

We'll all be giving thanks

Let's pray we picked the right guy

And next year they'll be some banks

Some jobs, some schools, some peace, a cure

Reasons for thanksgiving

Some air, some water, and some food

Seasons to keep living

Speaking of the right guy

Let's get down to business

How many days will there be

Any shopping left this Christmas

Let's elect a leader

Presidential in behavior

We don't want a Santa Claus

Though God knows we'd take a savior

So vote your conscience, guts and heart

Although it's just a mystery

And partake in this sacramental

Tuesday we make history

Draw the curtain, pull the lever

Pick a winner in the booth

But a winner's not a savior

And that's the awful truth
