Lyrics
Watch the mistake in progress
Observing a mistake in progress
Even if you don't believe in progress
Acknowledging the possibility of progress, regardless of belief
There's a give and there's a take
Highlighting the existence of both giving and taking
And there's a move she forgot to make
Noting a missed opportunity or action
In time to discover that
Realizing over time that certain things were deceptive
The glove was a plant, and the shill, his mean-spirited thing
Describing deceptive actions involving a glove and a mean-spirited individual
And she wants you
Expressing a desire for someone to leave
And she wants you
-And she wants you to go
-And she wants you
-And she wants you
-And she wants you to go
-But this is the way of perpetual roads
Introducing the concept of perpetual roads as a metaphor for a recurring pattern
And this is the way of perpetual roads
-And this is the way of perpetual roads
-And this is the way
Reiterating the theme of perpetual roads
Watch the parade in progress
Observing a parade in progress
Even if you don't believe in progress
Reiterating the acknowledgment of progress
There was a will
Referring to the presence of a will, a way, and an unpaid bill
There was a way
-There was a bill we forgot to pay
-In spite of all the accidental riches
Mentioning accidental riches, golden dons, and sudden glitches
Golden Dons, and sudden glitches to the day
-And she wants you
Expressing a repeated desire for someone to leave
And she wants you
-And she wants you to go
-And she wants you
-And she wants you
-And she wants you to go
-But this is the way of perpetual roads
Reiterating the theme of perpetual roads
And this is the way of perpetual roads
-And this is the way of perpetual roads
-And this is the way
-It's a long climb down from obscurity
Describing a challenging descent from obscurity
So cancel the keys to the city, please
Requesting the cancellation of city keys
Upon which I'll wretch the inextricable
Expressing a struggle with inextricable failures
Failures of popular wisdom
Criticizing popular wisdom and music
And popular music
-And she wants you
Repeating the desire for someone to leave
And she wants you
-And she wants you to go
-And she wants you
-And she wants you
-And she wants you to go
-But this is the way of perpetual roads
Reiterating the theme of perpetual roads
And this is the way of perpetual roads
-And this is the way of perpetual roads
-And this is the way of perpetual roads
-
