Sport Death - Speedy Ortiz

We’re playing house

What I’m fixing to find out

Is it a house you like?

Ambling families

Intolerable rambling

Tracing their claims on design

(Told ya)

Why’d you ask the question if you won’t believe the answer?

Why’d you ask the

question?

Officer, may I mistake emergent aggression

For undivided protection?

If you’re part of our clan

You’ll never watch your back again

Listen in, the new professionals have got a plan

Sure, it smarts

Trusting us thus far

Listen in, the new professionals have got a plan

Listen, I’m your new professional

Guilty of ghosting

Flagrantly floating

Easy to anger

I love you to death

So I’ll probably end up dead

Why’d you wear the button if you bet against the team?

Why’d your grind your voice down shouting?

My opponent pawns his purpose

Pugnacious skirting that ends in partisan flirting

If you’re not quick to talk

They’ll never let you talk at all

Listen in, the new professionals have got a plan

Sure, it smarts

Trusting us thus far

Listen in, the new professionals have got a plan

Listen, I’m your new professional

Entering the fray every waking day

That’s why I don’t wake sometimes

Cutting in and out

Circuitry half-gutted

That’s why I don’t play like the toys you made

Strutting to the new kids walking your walk

And the new professionals have got a plan

Listen, I’m your new professional
