Family Band (Album Version)

Family Band (Album Version) - The Tragically Hip (悲劇之果樂團)

I can't smell a rat

When it's all rat

I can't find one in an elevator

My mind doesn't work so bad

But I am a poor exterminator

That's right

I can't destroy entirely

Or annihilate a little later

I can't see the entire city

But I'm not a bad exterminator

I'm just a shade shy

Of true wickedness

I'm a shade shy

Of truly loving

Yeah

There are other things

I'd rather be doing

Even nothing

Even nothing

Even nothing with you

One day

I'll make some honest rock n roll

Full of hand claps and gang vocals

I'm gonna get all the children involved

We're gonna get lost on all you locals

We'll be a shade shy

Of true wickedness

We'll be a shade shy

Of truly loving this

Yeah

There are other things

We'll rather be doing

Sure

Even nothing

Even nothing

Even nothing with you

We'll load out through the snow

Through small groups of people

Smoking

Hey

Get that kick drum loaded

Into the backseat

Folded down

We'll go virtually unnoticed

What's gripping the city

Ain't hitting the town

We'll be a shade shy

Of true wickedness

We'll be a shade shy

Of truly loving

Yeah

There are other things

That we'll surely miss

We'll load out through the snow

Through small groups of people

Smoking

Hey

Get that kick drum loaded

Into the backseat folded down

We'll go perfectly unnoticed

What's gripping the city

Ain't hitting the town
