Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can you treat it like an oil well?
When it's underground, out of sight
And if the sight is just a horse sign
Can it make enough sense to me?
[Verse 2]
Pretend the table is a trust knot
We'll put our labels down
Faith is down
I'll watch the yarn of twine unravel
And you'll never get it back
[Verse 3]
It's what I want (It's what I want)
It's what I want (Twine comes down)
It's what I want (It's what I want)
[Verse 4]
Don't you know?
I could make it dry
Make it dry
Make it dry
Make it dry
[Verse 5]
I've been crowned
The king of it
And it is all we have
[Verse 6]
So wait
To hear my words
And the diamond's sharp
I could open it up
And it's up and down
[Verse 7]
It's what I want (It's what I want)
A sea of bags like a little dog (Ball and twine)
Don't you know that it's what I want? (It's what I want)
[Verse 8]
I'll see a bag
And it makes me try
Make me try
Make me try
Make me try
[Verse 9]
I've been down
The king of it
It's all we have
I bit down
[Verse 10]
And I couldn't wait
To hear the words
That diamond's sharp today
