Election Time Lyrics - Wyclef Jean

My generation like 

We're okay 

As long as we got music, we gon' dance all day 

He gon' vote Taylor Swift, she gon' vote Kanye, yeah, yeah 

Election time is coming 

We're okay 

As long as we got music, we gon' party all day 

She gon' vote U2, he gon' vote Coldplay, play, play 

Election time is coming 

Immigration, socialism, capitalism, racism 

Health care, welfare, seems like nobody cares 

Big business, corporation, small business, taxation 

Unemployment, education, my generation

Built a space station so when you google earth 

You can see all the Haitians as they rebuild their nation 

With fair trade, everybody trades 

You trade, I trade and everybody gets paid 

Election time around the corner 

Who you gon' vote for? 

We're okay 

Election time around the corner 

What you gon' fight for? 

We're okay 

Election time around the corner 

Who you gon' vote for? 

We're okay 

Election time is coming 

Do you want peace or war? 

Photos 

Alternative energy or oil in your SUV 

Tell me what you're looking for, we about to have it all 

Gun control, infrastructure, agriculture, manufacturer 

Hip Hop, be my culture, tell me what you think about us 

Technology and foreign policy 

I need the bailout money to stimulate economy 

Raised on family values, my life be my testament 

King had a dream and you too can be the president 

Election time around the corner 

Who you gon' vote for? 

We're okay 

Election time around the corner 

What you gon' fight for? 

We're okay 

Election time around the corner 

Who you gon' vote for? 

We're okay 

Election time is coming 

Do you want peace or war? 

But the kids like 

We're okay 

As long as we got music, we gon' dance all day 

He gon' vote Taylor Swift, she gon' vote Kanye, yeah, yeah 

Election time is coming 

But the kids like 

We're okay 

As long as we got music, we gon' party all day 

She gon' vote U2, he gon' vote Coldplay, play, play 

Election time is coming 

You know what? 

What? 

Why don't you take some of that stuff I grew up on 

You know what I'm talkin' about? 

Gramps was a voodoo priest, Dad was a preacher 

Uncle was a Mason, I was raised Christian 

Best friend, Muslim, al-salam-alakum 

My manager was Jewish, he taught me Shabbat Shalom 

Flatbush Rastas taught me the scriptures 

Haile Selassie, Marcus Garvey 

Saint L'ouverture, Haitian Revolution 

Napoleon's Army got spanked by them Haitians 

Toussaint St. Jean with the info 

Did you know that a Haitian founded Chicago? 

If I was president 

The first thing I would do is get my people out them tents 

Election time is coming 

My generation like 

We're okay 

As long as we got music, we gon' dance all day 

He gon' vote Taylor Swift, she gon' vote Kanye, yeah, yeah 

Election time is coming 

But the kids like 

We're okay 

As long as we got music, we gon' party all day 

She gon' vote U2, he gon' vote Coldplay, play, play 

Election time is coming 

I wanna thank you all for coming to see me here 

You could have been anywhere 

But you've chosen to come to the Haitian Experience to see us 

I go by the name of Wyclef Jean, straight from Haiti 

And that's my brother Steph on the drums
