The Tragically Hip Heaven Is a Better Place Today

Here's a glue guy - a performance god
A makeshift shrine - newly lain sod
Hardly even trying - gives the nod

(Chorus) I sure hope I'm not the type to dwell
Hope I'm a fast healer, fast as hell
Heaven is a better place today
Because of this, but the world is just not the same
If and when you get into the end zone
Act like you've been there a thousand times before
Don't blame, don't say people lose people all the time anymore

A toonie to the busker and a husky, "keep it coming", under my breath
But then said, "though if you wouldn't mind,
less crying and more trying", more trying and less crying
CHORUS...

If and when you get into that end zone
Act like you've been there a thousand times before
Don't change, but don't say people lose people all the time anymore

It's just not the same - because of this
It's not the same
