"One Night In Copenhagen" lyrics - THE TRAGICALLY HIP

THE TRAGICALLY HIP
"One Night In Copenhagen"

When the drugs hit you
Tingly begins
Conviction plus tone equals 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
And here it begins
Quits you at a payphone
In the snow
One night in Copenhagen
One night in Copenhagen

And you know the nadir's fluorescent
The shriek of a gull suspended in air
The sound of the town
Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
