lyrics

I’ve seen you walking lately
I’ve learned your name
I found a secret lever
Controls the rain.
I’ve got the algorithms
I’ve got degrees
I’ve got the power in me
To change the leaves.

The kingdom come,
That setting sun,
All thanks to us,
The chosen ones!

I’ve seen the latest data
I’ve seen the trends
We’ll never have to wonder
Just how it ends
My love’s a silver shadow,
A nice refrain
I’ll never touch that bubble
You’ll never change.

The kingdom come,
That setting sun,
All thanks to us,
The chosen ones!

We love you, baby, just the way you are
We’ve been searching for ways to rearrange the stars
They’re too far.

These eyes are up for auction
These tears are too
Come try the new concoction
to change your mood

If it won’t move the needle
Like yesterday
We’ve got the shoes you need to
just walk away.

The kingdom come,
That setting sun,
All thanks to us,
The chosen ones!
