The Tragically Hip - Nautical Disaster

#4956749 - 11/19/05 05:00 PM (20 years, 9 months ago)

Because every good Canadian band needs a song about a nautical disaster :wink:

The Tragically Hip - Nautical Disaster

I had this dream
Where I relished the fray
And the screaming filled my head all day...
It was as though, I'd been spit there
Settled in, into a pocket
Of a lighthouse off some rocky socket...
Off the coast of France, dear!

One afternoon, four thousand men
Died in the water, here
And five hundred more were thrashing madly
As parasites might, in your blood!
Now I was in a lifeboat
Designed for ten, and ten only
Anything that systematic, would get you hated
It's not a deal nor a test
Nor a love of something fated!

The selection was quick,
The crew was picked, in order
And those left in the water,
Were kicked off our pant legs!
And we headed for home...

Then the dream ends
When the phone rings
You're doing alright!
He said it's out there
Most days and nights
But only a fool would complain!

Anyway, Susan, if you like
Our conversation is as faint
As the sound in my memory
As those fingernails scratching on the hull!

--------------------
Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free.
But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.
