The People Lyrics by Ok Goodnight
Stand right in it
Where you feel like a stick of butter
(So smooth) So sweet
But you feel yourself melt to the floor
(Can’t get up)
And your body’s being taken over so
You scream and you shout
Look down, look out
For anyone to pull you up or under or through
Or dive right in to join you
But they freeze and they leave
You hangin’ out to dry
And you can’t help thinking they’re all laughing at you
(Haaaaah)
So you found
Another way
Without all of the
All the people, all the people, all the
“Eat well, eat right
Don’t push, don’t fight”
They say, all their impulse despite
As I hang, as I dangle
I saw all the fish, they were
(Circling under me)
Circle me (Circle me)
Reach for me
Underneath
My armory
So you found
Another way
Without all of the
All the people, all the people, all the people
Trippin’ over knots
Entwined in the strings
Connecting us
“It’s only a reckoning”
You hear the people singin’
They’re on fire
And as you sing along you know
You’re doomed, as one, to stop and go
