Sonic Youth Lyrics

"The Red And The Black" lyrics


Canadian Mounted, baby
Police force at work
Red and Black
It’s their color scheme
Get their man
In the end

It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right ah, yeah my honeys know it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right ah, yeah baby knows it’s all right
You’d kill, you’d maim ah, c’mon kill ’em
You’d kill, you’d maim look out

C’mon my husky

Frontenac Chateau, baby
I cross the frontier at ten
I got a whip in my hand, baby
And a girl or a husky
At leather’s end

It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right ah, yeah baby knows it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right yeah, baby, yeah it’s all right
You’d kill, you’d maim ah, c’mon kill ’em now
You’d kill, you’d maim

Hornswoop me bungo pony on dogsled on ice
Make a dash for freedom, baby
Don’t skate on polar ice
It’s too thick to be sliced
By the light
Of long and white polar nights

It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right ah, yeah baby knows it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right it’s all right
It’s all right yeah knows it’s all right
You’d kill, you’d maim ah, c’mon and kill now
You’d kill, you’d maim maim ’em too
Ah, break it up
