The New Hydra Collection by The Mountain Goats Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down in the lab with the hopeful few
Hell bent on doing the work that you cowards won't do
Weaving the future from bright new threads
Prices on their heads
[Verse 2]
Someday the abomination is going to finally make land
We stay silent as a snowdrift, focused on the task at hand
Dream of the day when the calm waters break
And something rises from the lake
[Chorus]
Someday all of you people will know
The safe way isn't the only way to go
[Verse 3]
Movement in the grid as fish leap in thе air
It's only a test run and still the tension's too dеlicious to bear
All around the monitor station, big smiles, high fives
According to my projections, everybody's going to run for their lives
[Bridge]
Still we wait until our time has come
Down here where the engines hum
Exiled priests of Rome
Bringing our troubles back home
[Chorus]
Someday all of you people will know
The safe way isn't the only way to go
Down in the lab with the hopeful few
Hell bent on doing the work that you cowards won't do
Weaving the future from bright new threads
Prices on their heads
[Verse 2]
Someday the abomination is going to finally make land
We stay silent as a snowdrift, focused on the task at hand
Dream of the day when the calm waters break
And something rises from the lake
[Chorus]
Someday all of you people will know
The safe way isn't the only way to go
[Verse 3]
Movement in the grid as fish leap in thе air
It's only a test run and still the tension's too dеlicious to bear
All around the monitor station, big smiles, high fives
According to my projections, everybody's going to run for their lives
[Bridge]
Still we wait until our time has come
Down here where the engines hum
Exiled priests of Rome
Bringing our troubles back home
[Chorus]
Someday all of you people will know
The safe way isn't the only way to go
