"Goodnight Attawapiskat" lyrics - THE TRAGICALLY HIP

Hello! Good evening, folks
We are the Silver Poets
Here in our thousand mile suits
We're here to get paid
We know nobody ever who got laid
Telling people what to do
We've come too far to feel like that
You've come too far to feel like that

Attawapiskat
City by the Bay!
There's no denying that
Oh, Attawapiskat
You're on your way

And though there's no sign
Of a songbird up here yet
No one to take advantage of
We know that life is short
Nobody can afford it
To sing a song that they don't love
I've come too far to feel like this
You've come too far to feel like that

Attawapiskat
City by the Bay!
A diamond dazzling
Oh, Attawapiskat
You're on your way

You're on your way
You're on your way
You're on the way

Oh, Attawapiskat
Oh, goodnight, Attawapiskat
Thank you! Goodnight!
Goodnight, Attawapiskat
Oh, goodnight Attawapiskat
Goodnight, Attawapiskat
Goodnight, Attawapiskat
Goodnight, Attawapiskat
