Dirty Projectors - Overlord Lyrics

Oh, fear is old
Please don't yell at the train
Just get aboard

Oh, we go forth
Those who stay behind will be
Left on the shore

Who could afford
Not to be a part of what
We're pushing toward?

Over over over overlord
Over over over overlord

Oh, overlord
Please don't be magnanimous
Protect your neck

Oh, overlord
Marshal my desires to
Your call and beck

Oh, it's assured (oh, overlord)
Good outweighs bad as we
Approach perfection

Over over over overlord
Over over over overlord

How can you try to help me?
How can you try not to help me?
(Help me) help me
(Help me) help me
(Help me) help me, yeah

Oh, overlord
Take the ones below me and
I'll hold the sword

Oh overlord
Who could serve a master who
Sits over lord?

Over over over overlord
Over over over overlord
Over over over overlord
Over over over overlord
