How It Is Okkervil River

[Verse 1]
You can't let yourself be selfish
You can't let yourself be sold
You gotta let your brother in from out the cold
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

[Verse 2]
You can't let your heart get tired
You can't let your head get told
You gotta let the outcast back into the fold
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

[Chorus 1]
You know that's how it is now
You know that's how it is now

[Verse 3]
You gotta do the Hully Gully now
You gotta do the Mashed Potato
You gotta hit the hissing floor and lose control
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

[Verse 4]
You can't think you know the answers
Oh, just because you've grown
You've got to take your sister's problem as your own
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
