Lyrics Andrew Bird

Andrew Bird

Scythian Empire

Five day forecast bring

black tar rains and hellfire

While handpicked handler's

kid gloves tear at the inseam

Their Halliburton attache cases are useless

While Scotch-Guard

Macintoshes shall be carbonized

Now they're offering

views of exiting empires

Such breathtaking views

of Scythian Empires

Scythian empire

Horsemen of the Russian steppe

Scythian empire

Archers of an afterthought

Routed by Sarmatians

Thwarted by the Thracians

Scythian empire

Kings of Macedonia

and the Scythian empire
