Lyrics copyright by Dennis Pearl and Lawrence Lesser
may sing to the tune of “Old Time Rock and Roll” (Bob Seger)
Just take those clippings off the shelf
I’ll sit and read ‘em by myself
Today’s surveys ain’t got the same soul
I like that old time random poll
Don’t try to show me a weighting scheme
Without evidence to back it up
In ten minutes it’s gonna blow up
I like that old time random poll
Still like that old time random poll
Error margins under my control
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old time random poll
Don’t wanna hear ‘em play a robo call
I’d rather hear a voice that’s got a soul
There's only one way to get me on board
Start with an old time random poll
We got response rates that are almost nil
with old-fashioned bias that that’ll instill
Today’s samples ain’t got the same soul
I like that old time random poll
Still like that old time random poll
That live voice just soothes the soul
Robo calls leave me feeling cold
I want that old time random poll
Still like that old time random poll
Error margins under my control
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old time random poll
Still like that old time random poll
That live voice just soothes the soul
Robo calls leave me feeling cold
I want that old time random poll
Hey, Still like that old time random poll
Error margins under my control
I reminisce about the days of old
With that old time random poll
Still like that old time random poll
