Entrance of the Elected

[Verse 1]
Maybe like a polecat, like a cannon
You'll be praying for days like the nuts and bolts
Like the uniforms that they wore in the civil war
Scratching your cat claws at the pavement
They'll see you coming across the room
Like a walking weight, like a cannon that's been—

[Chorus]
Hey there, operator, well, you know you're trading cash for crows
Hey there, operator well, you know there's water on the bow
Then believe it

[Verse 2]
"Thou do declare" said the governor
Well, let's get these people moving faster
"Thou do declare" said the father to his son
We're not hurting anyone at all
On the beach, now, in the garden, on the playground where you started it up

[Verse 3]
Change your life into a postcard version of white snow
Or so the story goes and the horse that you rode in on
Will be the horse that's taking you home
Change your life into a postcard version of white snow
Or so the story goes and the horse that you rode in on
Will be the horse that's taking you home

[Chorus]
Hey there, operator, well, you know you're trading cash for crows
And hey there, operator well, you know there's water on the bow
Then believe it
