The Tragically Hip - Cordelia

Album Road Apples (1991) Lyrics: Angst on the planks, spittin’ from a bridge Just to see how far down it really is Robbing a bank, jumping from a train Old antiques a man alone can entertain It takes all your power To prove that you don’t care I’m not Cordelia, I will not be there Tin can man, dragging from a car Just to see how alive you really are Marrying words, falling in your wake Just to tell what you can’t eliminate Treading the boards, screaming out Macbeth Just to see how much bad luck you really get Jump in the ring with your hidden cape The bull can’t decide what it is that he really hates Angst on the planks, spittin’ from a bridge Just to see how far down it really is Robbing a bank, jumping on a train Old antiques a man alone can entertain Thief lingers on, on his hands and knees Must be one more thing here I really need Die in your dreams, falling on your knife A thief blinded on the job, has to steal for life
