The Mountain Goats — Alpha Desperation March

[Verse 1] I'm coming in Try to stop me Push furniture in front of the door It only gives me something to push against In the full heat of the summer's day You're telling me to go away But you owe me eight thousand dollars And I can use it [Verse 2] I'm only getting stronger You may have noticed But a head full of memories propels me ever further And in the living room I don't see where you are But the back door's locked, so you can't have gone far And eight thousand dollars is a whole lot of money And I could use it [Verse 3] Could be that it's my imagination, but I think I hear you now So come out, come out, wherever you are Olly-olly-olly-olly-olly-olly oxen free see I'm Perfectly aware of where our love stands But the plain fact is that you owe me eight grand If it helps to jog your memory I lent it to you on Tuesday, when we were drinking [Interlude] Ha! Ha-ha-ha-uh-uh-ha! Uh-ha! Uh-ha! Uh uh uh-ha! Uh-ha! Ha ha ha Ha ha ha Uh-ha Uh-ha Uh-ha [Outro: Sampled, spoken] Me and the Sergeant dropped to the ground In the shadow below a bush I heard a branch crack to the left Then the sound of footsteps Two of the renegades carrying firewood, a third with a lightbulb Were walking toward them Closer and closer
