Tragically Hip, The - Born In The Water

Tragically Hip, The

Born In The Water

Rolling hills all covered in suede
I'm heat-nervous and out of road
Downtown, there's a parade
But I don't think I wanna go
Smart as trees in Sault Ste. Marie
I can speak my mother tongue
Passing laws, just because
And singing songs of the English unsung

How could you do it?
How could you even try?
When you were born in the water
And you were raised up in the sky?

Front seat stamped by the window
No erasees in this game
Arbitrary as the wind blows
It's another way to lay claim
Ain't no cause for bloodthirsting
In a little town so dry
Where the angels dance on a pinhead
Just to make room for you and I

How could you do it?
How could you even try?
When you were born in the water
And you were raised up in the sky

Thoroughbred with their great big heads
Think a mile might be too far
Highway horse laugh, but of course
When they don't know where the hell they are
Smart as trees in Sault Ste. Maire
Victorious mother tounge
Passing laws just because
Singing songs of the English unsung

Well how could you do it?
How could you even try
When you were born in the water
And you were raised up in the sky

Mirror lyrics:

And you were raised up in the sky
When you were born in the water
How could you even try
Well how could you do it?

Singing songs of the English unsung
Passing laws just because
Victorious mother tounge
Smart as trees in Sault Ste. Maire
When they don't know where the hell they are
Highway horse laugh, but of course
Think a mile might be too far
Thoroughbred with their great big heads

And you were raised up in the sky
When you were born in the water
How could you even try?
How could you do it?

Just to make room for you and I
Where the angels dance on a pinhead
In a little town so dry
Ain't no cause for bloodthirsting
It's another way to lay claim
Arbitrary as the wind blows
No erasees in this game
Front seat stamped by the window

And you were raised up in the sky?
When you were born in the water
How could you even try?
How could you do it?

And singing songs of the English unsung
Passing laws, just because
I can speak my mother tongue
Smart as trees in Sault Ste. Marie
But I don't think I wanna go
Downtown, there's a parade
I'm heat-nervous and out of road
Rolling hills all covered in suede
