A Vote For a Winner

"A Vote for a Winner" is a song sung by Lisa Simpson when she was trying to get the kids of Springfield Elementary to vote for her for class president.

Lyrics

 * Lisa:
 * I'm not that cool,
 * I don't wear jeans.
 * I've polished an apple or two.
 * But every grade that I grubbed,
 * I grubbed it for you.


 * So call me bookworm,
 * But I'll never squirm,
 * When there's work to be done.
 * Yes, I'll take my lunch at my desk,
 * While you're all outside having fun.


 * Don't vote for me, kids of Springfield,
 * Unless you want an effective leader.
 * I'll talk to teachers,
 * I'll handle Skinner,
 * A vote for Lisa,
 * Makes you the winner!


 * Students:
 * Vote Lisa! Vote Lisa! Vote Lisa!
