lyrics

(she voted first)

Her roof has had a bucket underneath it since the storm
Four years of a bucket in the hallway by the stairs
And the money on that table would have fixed it Monday
And she put her hand up first and she said no

She voted first (voted first)
Before anyone, voted first
Her own roof, voted first
Voted first

She voted first, voted first, she voted first, voted first
If we do it once they will come back in a year and ask again
She voted first, voted first, she voted first, voted first
And they came back in a year and asked again

We fixed the roof in March. Six of us. Ourselves. Badly.
It leaks in one corner and my cousin says it always will.
And it is our leak now, in our corner, and nobody signed anything.
(BAND RETURNS, FULL)

She voted first, voted first, she voted first, voted first
If we do it once they will come back in a year and ask again
She voted first, voted first, she voted first, voted first
And they came back in a year and asked again

(our leak...)
