Parquet Courts - Total Football Lyrics
[Verse 1]We are conductors of sound, heat and energyAnd I bet that you thought you had us figured out from the startWe are conduits of clear electricityNow you're back on the pitch to take the apparatus apartYou're an anc-ient nowYou're an anc-ient nowYou're an anc-ient nowOn your own[Chorus]Rebels, teachersStrikers, sweepersBetter protectedWhenever collected[Verse 2]We are troubled by your soft curiosityBut delighted to be anti everything you were taughtAre you put off by our footloose fluidityHave your hurt caucasian feelings left you so distraught?Are you quite done now?Are you quite done now?Are you quite done now?Not at all[Chorus 2]Workers, authorsPoets, stoppersPower resembledIf we are assembled[Outro]Only through those who stay awake can an institution be dismantledIt is dishonest, nay, a sin to stand for any anthem that attempts to drown out the roar of oppressionHesse Total FootballTwombly Total FootballTzara Total FootballMina Total FootballPanthers Total FootballKobra Total FootballDada Total FootballBeatles Total FootballSwapping parts and roles is not acting but rather emancipation from expectationCollectivism and autonomy are not mutually exclusiveThose who find discomfort in your goals of liberation will be issued no apologyAnd ***** Tom Brady!
