Cordelia Lyrics

Artist: The Tragically Hip
Album: Road Apples

angst on the planks, spttin' from a bridge just to see how far down it really is robbing a bank, jumping on a train old antiques a
man along 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 along can entertain

thief lingers on, on hi 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

Cordelia is the youngest and most favoured daughter of King Lear in the play King Lear. One of my favorites from The Hip!! Good ole Canadian band
