The Hives - Patrolling Days

 

Waited far too long
For this day to dawn
Marked position with an x and kept floating on
Now I stretch and yawn
All impostors gone
Once again it?s time to reap and sow
I?m a rising tide
Rollercoaster ride
We?re ch-ch-chuggin right into the fun
I wont be denied
So you open wide
Cause I?m only looking out for you

My patrolling days are over
And I ain?t shot nobody since
I fought the big cheese out of office
And showed the hep kids how to dance
And now we?re gonna take a ride on the wiggle and sway
I got my finger on the trigger and it?s time to play
And with every little step I blow your mind away
Forever H-P-A!

What now! It?s going down!
From way up top to the down low
Take a chromosome
Make it monochrome
And I?ll tell you what I?m gonna do
Be a rising tide
Rollercoaster ride
We?re ch-ch-chuggin right into the fun
I wont be denied
So you open wide
Cause I?m only looking out for you

My patrolling days are over
And I ain?t shot nobody since
I fought the big cheese out of office
And showed the hep kids how to dance
And now we?re gonna take a ride on the wiggle and sway
I got my finger on the trigger and it?s time to play
And with every little step I blow your mind away
Forever H-P-A!

My patrolling days are over
And I ain?t shot nobody since
I fought the big cheese out of office
And showed the hep kids how to dance
And now we?re gonna take a ride on the wiggle and sway
I got my finger on the trigger and it?s time to play
And with every little step I blow your mind away
Forever H-P-A!

'Cause my patrolling days are over
And I ain?t shot nobody since
I fought the big cheese out of office
And showed the hep kids how to dance
And now we?re gonna take a ride on the wiggle and sway
I got my finger on the trigger and it?s time to play
And with every little step I blow your mind away
Forever H-P-A!

Cause see I rolled in through the back door when it was my turn for throne
I never wanted to stand on your pedestal man cause I was born to build my own
When they say do or die, I said no way no how, they said I wouldn?t last for long

But I?m still standing in the hurricane?s eye and it?s dancing to my song
Again I rolled in round the back door, no I ain?t got no common sense
So you can bitch and whine, but you best stand aside cause I?m doing it again
Well no I won?t unwind, I wont be dumped behind, I wont be coolly led astray
So on the dotted line, I slit my thumb and sign yours truly, HPA!

My patrolling days are over
And I ain?t shot nobody since
I fought the big cheese out of office
And showed the hep kids how to dance
And now we?re gonna take a ride on the wiggle and sway
I got my finger on the trigger and it?s time to play
And with every little step I blow your mind away
Forever H-P-A!
