Singer Intro

There's a distant pause and low frequency
It tickles my ear, rumbles under my feet
And it shakes the leaves off of every tree violently

What pretension! Everlasting peace
Everything must cease

Institution on the hill
Like a beacon in the mind of an ancestor

And the descendants find oh so odd, oh so odd

What pretension! Everlasting peace
Everything must cease

What pretension! Everlasting peace
