[Verse 1] Engines drop below the rooftops, windows start to shake, Air Force jet skims the monuments, city wide awake, No warning text, no siren, just a rattle in the glass, Folks spill out on sidewalks watching metal wings go past, Low flyover, startled pigeons, startled senators too, Washington exhales once the shadow slides on through, Nobody called this drill, nobody rang the bell, Just a sonic ghost story the whole town's gonna tell. [Chorus] Four days left, the clock's a drumbeat, soft and low, Ballots stacking, rallies calling, watch it grow, Skies and chat logs, pulpits, polls all intertwine, Count it down with me, October thirty-first in line. [Verse 2] Meanwhile Democrats in the House pull a different thread, Grok chat transcripts, a TIME report got everybody fed, They want it saved, not deleted, every keystroke kept, 'Cause a server's memory holds what a hard drive slept, Digital footprints don't erase just 'cause you logged off, Preserve the record, they demand, before the data's soft, A conversation with a chatbot now a piece of evidence, Filed under questions nobody wants irrelevant. [Chorus] Four days left, the clock's a drumbeat, soft and low, Ballots stacking, rallies calling, watch it grow, Skies and chat logs, pulpits, polls all intertwine, Count it down with me, October thirty-first in line. [Verse 3] Trump's back on stage, rallies reinstated, crowd lights swing, Al Jazeera counts the days, four left before the ring, House races scattered coast to coast decide who holds the gavel, Control of Congress hanging on a few won't-budge towns' travel, BBC asks what's at stake for him, his name on every line, The margins thin as paper, the outcome still unsigned. [Verse 4] Across the ocean Pope Leo marks a box by mail, Vatican News confirms it, a shepherd casting a vote by trail, And if the count gets murky, if someone cries foul play, Reuters says the final word belongs to Congress, not the fray, The Times lays out the polls, predictions stacked in a row, Nobody's got the answer till the numbers start to show. [Bridge] Jet noise, chat logs, rally lights, a mail-in from Rome, Every thread this Halloween week keeps pulling power home, Watch the sky, watch the screen, watch the counted stack, Four days out from knowing which way the House leans back. [Chorus] Four days left, the clock's a drumbeat, soft and low, Ballots stacking, rallies calling, watch it grow, Skies and chat logs, pulpits, polls all intertwine, Count it down with me, October thirty-first in line. [Outro] October thirty-first, the news keeps its quiet pace, Tomorrow it keeps counting down, same story different face.
