Lyrics

[verse] Two duds for the election, If we skip the insurrection, Apparently, It’s the best we got! A crook and one almost deceased, Vote the guy you hate the least, Apparently, It’s the best we got! [chorus] It’s the best we got! (best we got) We’re in peril! What a mess we got (mess we got) Scraping at the bottom of the barrel! [chorus] One fellow's older than a tortoise, Showing signs of rigor mortis, Apparently, It’s the best we got! The other fellow loves his Bible 'Cept the stuff for which he’s liable, Apparently, It’s the best we got! [verse] It’s the best we got! (best we got) We’re in peril! What a mess we got (mess we got) Scraping at the bottom of the barrel! [bridge] [verse] You could do your civic duty, Or you could move to Djibouti, Apparently, It’s the best we got! One is gonna lead the nation, It’s a lose-lose situation, Apparently, It’s the best we got! [chorus] It’s the best we got! (best we got) We’re in peril! (We’re in peril) What a mess we got (mess we got) Scraping at the bottom of the barrel! We’re scraping at the bottom of the barrel! [big finish]
