The Mountain Goats

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Floor the pedal at the green light
Watch the traffic all drift right
Barrel forward unimpeded
Switch lanes as needed
Be flexible, be unreplaceable
In a world of heavy footprints, be untraceable

[Chorus]
Wage war, get rich, die handsome
Wage war, get rich, die handsome
Wage wars, get rich, die handsome

[Verse 2]
Live once, you get to pay twice
Keep your nose clean, keep your wheels nice
Open highway on the horizon
Queen of queens, anima rising
Stay independent, make adjustments as needed
It's losers all the way down, you stay undefeated
Stay undefeated

[Chorus]
Wage war, get rich, die handsome
Wage wars, get rich, die handsome
Wage wars, get rich, die handsome, go
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Wage wars, get rich, die handsome
Wage war, get rich, die handsome
Wage wars, get rich, die handsome, die handsomeEmbed
