Rachel Bloom wants you to vote so badly she wrote a song about it

Please. Please just do it.

Rachel Bloom really, really wants you to vote.

The Crazy Ex-Girlfriend creator joined a slew of celebrity friends -- including Moby, Elizabeth Banks, Patti LuPone and Mayim Bialik -- to encourage America's last ambivalent citizens to vote in a new Funny or Die music video.

Aptly, the song is titled "Holy Shit, You've Got to Vote."

Honestly, if you weren't going to vote already, Bloom makes a pretty convincing case. "We already know which side you'll end on," she urges. "Facebook filters out dissension."

The song also contains some of the most creative Trump monikers we've heard to date, including "sentient septic tank" and "human syphilis" -- names unlikely to convince any Trump supporters to vote for Clinton.

Luckily, that's not the song's goal. Bloom told Entertainment Weekly she simply hopes it will energize hesitant voters to head to the polls.

“If this video motivates one person, especially in a swing state, to just get out there, then it will have been worth it," she said.

And why wouldn't it? The song has a key change, after all, and is thus guaranteed to be inspirational.
