lyrics

Your a fool waiting for the answers
Answers no longer exist
If you tie yourself to the mantle
Steeples and masts won't resist
Beetles in the grass trail a fist
I've a stump at the end of my wrist,
where I used to point armies and battle ships
before the world made us tired and listless

So

We're supposed to rid the world of danger,
Calm strangers,
And give our money to the fuckin money changers,
But it's alright
This dog is hungry, this dog must eat
and It's ok
This dog will hunt, this dog has teeth

Don't try and give yourself
Don't try and give yourself
Don't try and give away a piece for nothing

Our names el captain
Our names el captain
Our names el captain may cah-ho in le laychey

We were fools waiting for your answers
Your answers to add to our list
When you tied yourself to the flag poles
Nothing we could do could resist
But the Rats in the grass chew your fist
We're growing knuckles at the end of our wrist,
where we will point our armies on your battle fields
and operate machines on the sist

I thought we had it solved
I know you want a name
The pressure for you to invent an alter ego game
But I'm not making sense
And I'll not great with words
Blah blah fuckin blah

YOU CAN'T GIVE YOURSELF
YOUR OWN NICKNAME YOU KNOW
IT'S A PRIVILEGE IT IS YOU'VE GOT TO EARN IT THOUGH
YOU CAN'T GIVE YOURSELF YOUR OWN NICKNAME YOU KNOW
IT'S A PRIVILEGE IT IS YOU'VE GOT TO EARN IT THOUGH

Everyone's waiting for an answer
Answers seldomly exist
It's ok for you to grip to a mantle
Because steeples and masts will resist
The beetles in the grass don't exist
Because theres hands at the ends of these wrists,
now you command the armies,
And we direct ships
Masters of our wars, not relationships

Don't expect a name from me
