[Intro]
*Harmonizing*
[Verse 1: Andrew Broder]
Oh how could you read
Into merest hellos
Some icy omen? (How?)
Why would you unwind
That silk suit back to
The worm it spun from? (Why?)
[Pre-Chorus: Andrew Broder]
What you want with him?
He's cold; when you touch
Grinding gears ring out
[Chorus: Andrew Broder]
What is it? (Take it as a sign, Lord, take it as a sign)
What gives? (Take it as a sign, Lord, take it as a sign)
Where is my seeing eye shrink
Who blows his nose in the blueprints?
[Verse 2: Andrew Broder]
The bottled water's all
Locked in the garage;
Outside, a mirage
No one is safe from...
[Chorus: Andrew Broder and Phil Elverum]
I'm shaking (Take it as a sign, Lord)
I'm shaking (Take it as a sign)
All over (Soon things will be clarified)
All over (Soon things will be brought to light)
[Verse 3: Andrew Broder]
The marketplace ashamed
You incur its flaccid wrath
What part of the game is that?
Have our better halves rounded down?
The colors all washed out
Into ground down
Windshield glass
Flaring on curbsides?
What part of the game is that?
[Chorus: Andrew Broder and Phil Elverum]
What is it? (Take it as a sign, Lord)
What gives? (Take it as a sign, Lord)
Things will be clarified, Lord
