Operators

Maybe this time
We’ll open our eyes
Roll in like an alligator
Sink in our bite
Oh
Tell me where you want me to be
Tell me what you want and you need
(they’re saying)
You can tell me

In the daylight
We try and we hide
Runnin’ like an elephant’s
Fallin’ from the sky

Tell me where you want me to be
Tell me what you want and you need
(they’re saying)
You can tell me
You can tell me
You can tеll me
Alright

Cuz anytime the night falls
Opеrators will swoop into the aisles
And take what everyone wants

What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?
What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?

Somehow they keep it runnin’
Without the love
Overcalculated villains
They’re tyin’ up
What everyone wants

What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?

Maybe this time
There’s no next time
Runnin’ while the helicopter’s
Flyin’ right by
Just tell me where you want me to be
Tell me what you want and you need
(they’re saying)
You can tell me

Sundown to sunrise
We see the antithesis
Playin’ like they’re innocent
Tryin’ to divide
Sayin’
Tell me where you want me to be
Tell me what you want and you need
(they’re saying)
You can tell me

Cuz anytime the night falls
Operators will swoop into the aisles
And take what everyone wants

What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?
What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?

Somehow they keep it runnin’
Without the love
Overcalculated villains
They’re tyin’ up
What everyone wants

What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?

Brings love down
I don’t wanna be the one
That brings love down...

I don’t ever wanna slow down
Not right now
Tear gas and it’s hard to digest
The whole city in a mode of crisis
Ran four blocks, better catch my breath
Then one-two-step with a left-right-left
Chin up and a long mile
Big badge and a false smile
The right food but the wrong aisle
Zeitgeist in a dogpile
Let’s pause for a moment of silence
Peace goin’ up but they call it a riot
“Please stay calm, it’s a moderate process”
To bite my tongue – not a part of my conscience
The credible risk of
Becoming a suspect
A crumbling halo
I’m back at the front door
Eye to the peephole
Ordered to stay home

Cuz anytime the night falls
Operators will swoop into the aisles
And take what everyone wants

What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?
What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?

Somehow they keep it runnin’
Without the love
Over calculated villains
They’re tyin’ up
What everyone wants

What do they want and
Who are they trying to please?
