Lyrics Well, You Can Do It Without Me - Father John Misty

Well, You Can Do It Without Me

If you see a flaming sword in your dreams at night
And feel inspired to assign me up to the front line
Well, give the order, you’ll storm the border without me
If they tell you you’re a genius, but you need some proof
Ask anybody on the payroll to go out with you
If they avoid ya, then they’ll award ya, definitely
Nobody that’s around you seems to get it right
How hard is it to follow just a few guidelines
And smile while you do it?
If you want a page written 'bout you in the book
But you need a food tester 'cause you cursed the cook
I’ll take some wine, but you can dine without me
Without me who would let you play God
And make believe that all the blasphemy
Was coming only from me?
Oh
If you’re bound for the throne, but the King won’t die
I can occupy the Queen, but that’s for her and I
I can do her and you’ll be ruler without me
Yeah, you can do it
But you can do it without me
