Don’t Wake Daddy The Tragically Hip

Sled dogs after dinner
Close their eyes on the howling 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
And, yeah, I paused in wonder too

Shhh
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"

Shhh
And don't
Wake
Daddy
Just don't
