Lyrics Overlord - Dirty Projectors

Overlord

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
