Sovay - Andrew Bird

I was getting ready to be a threat

I was getting set for my

Accidental suicide

The kind where no one dies

No one looks too surprised

And you

Then you realize

That you're riding on the para-success

Of a heavy-handed metaphor

And a feeling like you've been here before

'Cause you've been here before

And you've been here before

Then a word washed to shore

Then a word washed to shore

A word hey we go

Sovay Sovay Sovay

So All along the day

I was getting ready to consider

My next plan of attack

I think I'm gonna sack

The whole board of trustees

All those Don Quixotes in their B-17s

And I swear this time yeah this time

They'll blow us back to the seventies

And this time they're playin Ride of the Valkyries

With no semblance of grace or ease

And they're acting on vagaries

With their violent proclivities

And they're playing ride

They're playing ride

They're playing ride

Ride of the Valkyries here we go

Sovay Sovay Sovay

Is All

I was getting ready to thrilten to be thrill consider

To thinking about My next plan of attack one side

The whole board of trustees

All those Don Quixotes in their B-17s

And I swear this time yeah this time

They'll blow us back to the seventies

And this time they're playin'

Ride

Ride of the Valkyries this time

With no semblance

No semblance of grace or ease this time

And they're acting on vagaries

With their violent proclivities

And they're playing ride

They're playing ride

They're playing ride

They're playing ride

Ride Ride Ride

Ride of the Valkyries here we go now
