    Story Behind the Song
    This election is bizarre and fascinating. We
    felt inspired by all the twists and turns to
    come up with a parody. "The 12 Days of
    Christmas" provided the perfect melody
    and structure to hit the high points or low
    points,depending on your point of view, of
    Election 2000.

    Lyrics
    On the first day of the election, the networks gave to me,
    A great big controversy.

    On the second day of the election, Florida gave to me, whining candidates
    And a great big controversy.

    On the third day of the election, Florida gave to me, 20,000 pissed-off voters,
    And a test of democracy.

    On the fourth day of the election, Palm Beach gave to me,archaic butterfly ballots,
    And a test of democracy.

    On the fifth day of the election, Al Gore gave to me, 5 hand recounts,
    Archaic butterfly ballots,
    20,000 pissed-off voters
    whining candidates
    And a great big controversy.

    On the sixth day of the election, Florida gave to me, votes for Pat Buchannon?
    And a great big controversy.

    On the seventh day of the election, Katharine Harris said, "Get them here on time,"
    Votes for Pat Buchannon
    And Bush claims victory.

    On the eighth day of the election, Florida gave to me, 8 courts-a-ruling,
    And Bush claims victory.

    On the 9th day of the election, Florida gave to me, military ballots,
    And a great big controversy.

    On the 10th day of the election, Florida gave to me, 10,000 pregnant chads, What!?
    10,000 pregnant chads, Huh!? 10,000 pregnant chads,
    And a great big controversy.

    On the 11th day of the election, candidates gave to me, 11 days of spinning,
    and a great big controversy.

    On the 12th day of the election, the networks gave to me, 12 12 12,000 hours of coverage,
    And a great big controversy.

    On the 13th day of the election, George Bush said to me, "Kiss My Dimpled Chad."
    And still no winner of the presidency.

    On the 14th day of the election, the state supreme court ruled, "Count those #@*% ballots."
    Kiss my dimpled chad
    12,000 hours of coverage
    11 days of spinning
    10,000 pregnant chads
    military ballots
    8 courts-a-ruling
    Get them here on time
    Votes for Buchannon
    5 hand recounts
    Archaic butterfly ballots
    20,000 pissed-off voters
    Whining candidates
    And a Ryder truck to Tallahassee,
    And still no winner of the presidency.
