The Tragically Hip
"One Night In Copenhagen"


When the drugs hit you
tingy begins
conviction + tone = hope
under the threat of separation
the nadir's fluorescent
the shriek of a gull
suspended in air
the sound of the sea
Anywhere! Anywhere!

When the drugs quit you
as loyal as a fruit fly you'll mutter to yourself
'you talentless fuck, good fucking luck
good fucking luck'
a delicatessen
shriek of a horn
suspended in air
the sound of the town
Anywhere! Anywhere!

It quits you in situ
Lyricsand here it begins
quits you at a payphone in the snow
one night in Copenhagen
One night in Copenhagen
and ya know
the nadir's fluroscent
the shriek of a gull
suspended in air
the sound of the town
Anywhere! Anywhere!
