Election day came and voting was never a pain
Until butterfly ballots came and messed up the votes again
On the afternoon of November 5 Florida was quite alive
By November 8 Palm Beach had fell
It's a time I remember oh so well

The night they drove old Florida down
And the chads were hangin'
The night they drove old Florida down
And the fogies were bangin'
They went na na na na na na (which translates into "I didn't mean to vote for Buchanan")

After Gore lost Tennessee
Bush called him to see
"Well golly Al look at me I got the presidency"
Now Gore told Bush to wait and be good
Cause Florida wasn't yet out of the wood
"Let me take what I need and don't you gorge
There's no need to be snippy George"

The night they drove old Florida down
And the chads were hangin'
The night they drove old Florida down
And the fogies were bangin'
They went na na na na na na

Like his father before him
Bush got the land
And like Dan Quayle before him
He's proved himself as a silly man
His IQ is 18, his head is in caved
But by Powell and Cheney's expertise he's always saved
Even though his gray matter is smaller than his feet
You can't prune a shrub, even when he's met defeat.

The night they drove old Florida down
And the chads were hangin'
The night they drove old Florida down
And the fogies were bangin'
They went na na na na na na
