Candidate Lyrics

These kids drove out in vans from Ohio

Ready to change the world

MapQuest directions on the passenger seat

When world saving missions needed cartridge ink

They said when it's our time

When these boomers get out of our way

When it's our time

Remember how it feels

To mean what we say

And it feels like a lot of time

It feels like a lot of time

And it feels like a lot of time

Since we took that drive

The campaign trail was exhausting

When his name wasn't on the yard signs

All the cycles spent making phone calls

And compromise

And he swore when it's my time

When the slogans all come from my heart

When it's my time

If you know how to lose

You've won from the start

And it feels like a lot of time

It feels like a lot of time

And it feels like a lot of time

Since we even tried

Now the chairman is throwing his hat in

He's tried to everything right

If your boss can keep all of his promises

This could be a new kind of fight

And he said this is my time

Wait what do the numbers say

This is my time

That kid he knows nothing

Get out of my way

And it feels like a lot of time

And it feels like a lot of time

And it feels like a lot of time

Since he knew himself

And it feels like a lot of time

And it feels like a lot of time

And it feels like a lot of time

Since we had a choice
