Tournament of Hearts (Live) - The Weakerthans[00:00:00]
Now the lounge is full of farmers[00:00:03]
For the 7:30 draw[00:00:06]
Teammates all left before[00:00:10]
They had to buy a round[00:00:12]
When they pull the 50/50[00:00:16]
And I've lost again I'll go[00:00:19]
Maybe have one more brown[00:00:22]
One for the snowy road[00:00:24]
All the championship banners[00:00:28]
Going yellow on the wall[00:00:32]
Add my name when it gets closer to last call[00:00:35]
So Elvira brings my bottle [00:00:41]
Hold it up and let it bend[00:00:44]
Figures of two rinks battling an extra end[00:00:48]
And I'm peeling off the label[00:00:54]
As they peel a corner guard[00:00:57]
Dance down the sheet to the tune[00:01:00]
Of "Hurry Hurry Hard"[00:01:03]
And my popcorn squeaks a question[00:01:06]
Wonders why I'm not at home[00:01:10]
Where you wait beside a silent telephone[00:01:13]
Doodle circles within circles all alone[00:01:19]
Have to stop myself from climbing[00:01:25]
On the table full of empties to yell why[00:01:29]
Why can't I ever stop where I want to stay [00:01:35]
Why can't I ever stop where I want to stay [00:01:41]
I slide right through the days[00:01:46]
I'm always throwing hack weight[00:01:49]
Right off no never never ever ever[00:01:51]
Right off no never never ever never[00:01:55]
Right off no never never never ever[00:01:58]
Right off no never ever never ever[00:02:01]
Right off no never never ever ever[00:02:04]
Right off no never never ever never[00:02:07]
Right off no never ever never ever[00:02:10]
Right off[00:02:13]
Now the senior Bonspiel winners circa 1963[00:02:16]
Are all staring glaring disapprovingly[00:02:22]
From their frame in that old photograph at me[00:02:28]
And I know you're out there waiting[00:02:34]
For an answer I can't give you[00:02:38]
So tell me why[00:02:41]
Why can't I draw right up to what I want to say [00:02:45]
Why can't I ever stop when I want to stay [00:02:51]
We roll right through our years [00:02:56]
We drip right through our months[00:02:59]
We slide right through our days [00:03:02]
I'm always throwing hack weight[00:03:05]
Right off no never never ever ever[00:03:08]
Right off no never never ever never[00:03:11]
Right off no never ever never ever[00:03:14]
Right off[00:03:17]
