Persistence Songtext
von King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard

Oh baby, I got persistence
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons
Oh baby, I got persistence
I′m an automatic transmission
Oh baby, I got persistence
I hold the pole position
Oh baby, I got persistence
Yeah, I go the distance

No want for gas (gas)
I run on love (love)
So cut the brakes (brakes)
There's no end of the road (the road)
Unfading highway (highway)
Pass no cars on the way (the way)


So set to cruise (to cruise)
Let′s get away (get away)
Let's drive (drive)
Drive, drive, drive (get away, get away)
Let's drive (drive)
Drive, drive, drive, drive

Oh baby, I got persistence
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons
Oh baby, I got persistence
I′m an automatic transmission
Oh baby, I got persistence
I hold the pole position
Oh baby, I got persistence
Yeah, I go the distance

(Oh baby, I got persistence)
Yeah, I go the distance
(Oh baby, I got persistence)
Yeah, I go the distance


I think I went too fast (you did)
I think the car might crash (it will)
I′ll have to pull out the wings (the wings)
And feel the lift underfoot (underfoot)
I'm shaking with fear (with fear)
Such a crazy idea (idea)
Better give it a try (give it a try)
See if this car can fly

Let′s fly (fly)
Fly, fly, fly
Let's fly (fly)
Fly, fly, fly, fly
Flying, I′m flying (flying)
I'm floating (flying, flying, flying)
I′m flying (flying)
I'm floating

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh baby, I got persistence
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons
Oh baby, I got persistence
I'm an automatic transmission
Oh baby, I got persistence
I hold the pole position
Oh baby, I got persistence
Yeah, I go the distance

(Oh baby, I got persistence) yeah, I go the distance
(Oh baby, I got persistence) yeah, I go the distance
