One Night In Copenhagen - The Tragically Hip

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
