The Hives - Patrolling Days Lyrics

Waited far too long
For this day to dawn
Marked position with an X and kept floating on.
Now I stretch and yawn
All imposters gone
Once again it's time to reap and sow.
I'm a rising tide
Rollercoaster ride
We're ch-ch-chuggin right into the fun.
I won't be denied
So you open wide
Cause I'm only looking out for you.
My patrolling days are over
And I ain't shot nobody since
I fought the big cheese out of office
And showed the hep kids how to dance
And now we're gonna take a ride on the wiggle and sway
I got my finger on the trigger and it's time to play
And with every little step I blow your mind away
Forever H-P-A!
What now! It's going down!
From way up top to the down low.
Take a chromosome
Make it monotone
And I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.
Be a rising tide
Rollercoaster ride
We're ch-ch-chuggin right into the fun.
Now you open wide
I won't be denied
Cause I'm only looking out for you.
My patrolling days are over
And I ain't shot nobody since
I fought the big cheese out of office
And showed the hep kids how to dance
And now we're gonna take a ride on the wiggle and sway
I got my finger on the trigger and it's time to play
And with every little step I blow your mind away
Forever H-P-A!
Cause see I rolled in through the back door when it was my turn for the throne.
I never wanted to stand on your predestal man cause I was born to build my own.
When they said do or die, I said no way no how. They said I wouldn't last for long.
But I'm still standing in the hurricane's eye and it's dancing to my song
Again I rolled in round the back door, no I ain't got no common sense
So you can bitch and whine. But you best stand aside cause I'm doing it again
Well no I won't unwind, I won't be dumped behind, I won't be coolly led astray.
So on the dotted line I slit my thumb and sign yours truly, H-P-A!
My patrolling days are over
And I ain't shot nobody since
I fought the big cheese out of office
And showed the hep kids how to dance
And now we're gonna take a ride on the wiggle and sway
I got my finger on the trigger and it's time to play
And with every little step I blow your mind away
Forever H-P-A!
