On the Line - Ought

Don’t fear on your approach, there’s shade all the way

Ave Maria, I am your dog

There on the horizon line, I’ll be your man inside

There on the horizon line, I’ll cut it all away

Could not get up, life and living, ipso facto not at all

Tie my heart up like a bull, ipso facto not at all

Something went wrong, didn’t know about Chicago

She sees only the hill, where the buffalo roam

Are my cities gonna fall away?

Sweet pastures no matter, I’m a lover in the hay

Keep the golden sons coming, push the broken ones away

Well, Ave Maria, I am your dog

Ave Maria, I am your dog

And in the dead of night, I’ll be your man inside

And in the dead of night, I’ll cut it all away

Cut it all away

What do you think you’ve done here (x4)

Could not get up, life and living, ipso facto not at all

Tie my heart up like a bull, ipso facto not at all

Are my cities gonna fall away?

I’m gonna call that, are you wasted

I’m gonna be calling it, a genocide

It’s a very astute observation

Don’t you say

It’s a very astute observation

If I do say so myself

Put on your evening attire

We got a lot of forgetting to do

He’s a good looking man, with a mild affectation

And if you treat him all right, he’s gonna get you to the station

But if you treat him all wrong, you better perfect your line

With your sisters all gone, he’s out to ruin your night

Oh what a glow, he wants you to know

It’s all yours if you’ll just, sign here on the line

Well, oh my, oh my I’ve never heard a lie

I’ve never hesitated, so I’ll sign here on the line

If you did it all wrong, lost in this song

Guess you spoke wrong about religion once more

Oh halle-fucking-lujah, I’ll take you

Give me what I want, and I assure you I will break you

Well halle-fucking-lujah, what I’m taking you to

You love, if I love I want it all

And it is, as an aside, it is
