The Tragically Hip Don't Wake Daddy

Sled dogs after dinner close their eyes on the howlin' wastes
Kurt Cobain, reincarnated, sighs and licks his face
Then they drift past strips of Serengeti and the gates of Sleepy Hollow too
You can pause in wonder, they paused in wonder, yeah I paused in wonder too
Don't wake daddy

They can lay their heads on their futon-beds so many miles from home
You teach your children some fashion sense and they fashion some of their own
For when the policy-weary commune on the untamed land
Through white sheers whispers in their ears you're damned
And don't wake daddy

You can stuff your void with the asteroid that's hurtling toward the earth
You can drop the bomb that restores some calm then promises rebirth
Just don't wake daddy

It's the perfect time now
For an eclectic choice
They're all asleep but us now
It's time to hear your voice

Sing to end all songs to end all songs
Sing to end all songs to end all songs
Sing to end all songs to end all songs
